Love Of Oats

A blog dedicated to balancing a healthy and fun life… with oats!

My Big News

So, if you haven’t noticed, I’ve been a little MIA lately in terms of posting… Well, starting today that will change… and there is a simple and exciting reason why, but I wanted to wait a little bit before sharing with you all… but now since some time has passed, I’d like to share with you my exciting news… I’m pregnant!  I had to stay away for a little because I had been so unbelievably tired that I had no desire to post, but now that I’m further along, my energy has returned and I feel better than ever…

Needless to say, hubby and I are more than thrilled about the news and cannot wait until February to meet our baby!  We are not going to find out the sex of the baby though simply because we both love the surprise of it!  My due date is February 2nd which means that as of today I am almost finishing up my 14th week and in the 2nd trimester :)

Now that the beans have been spilled, I also would like to announce that I’m going to be turning this into a joint pregnancy and food blog!  I have to say although there is an overabundance of wonderful food blogs, I haven’t really found a good pregnancy blog resource so I’m hoping that maybe I can help someone else by documenting my experiences, research, and fun along the way…

I plan to post weekly in regards to my experiences each week but I also plan to keep up food and recipe blogging as well, so you should only notice a slight difference :)

PS.   Don’t forget about the Athenos giveaway that ends today!

    Hi again Lindsay!

    Thanks for visiting me! I’m glad you are out of the icky first trimester with all the discomfort that goes there. I’m sure you’ve also encountered all the unsolicited advice from known and random people, or you will if you haven’t already since you’re just spreading the news. I still find it pretty irritating, so I won’t offer any to you. :-) I don’t begin to pretend to be an expert since this is my first pregnancy, but I am a few months ahead of you so it’s all fresh. If you ever want to chat or have a random question about some little thing, don’t hesitate to send me a note! I love talking baby and pregnancy stuff these days. ~Sarah

    Congratulations! I am so very happy for you. I’ve been following your food blog for a long while now, and I will continue to follow your baby blog, if that’s what it turns into. I think it will all blend nicely together!

    Congratulations! It’s so exciting to be expecting!

    I’m due in November, and I too felt the need to blog about something other than food the past few months. That is, after I got over the aversion to do anything but sleep and function on a basic level! Waiting for Grace http://waitforgrace.blogspot.com/
    I’m still writing at Suite Apple Pie, but I envision combining postpartum and addressing food and parenthood in one spot.

    Parenthood is great. I have 3 children (from 2 yrs to 5 yrs old) and I can’t imagine life without them.
