The New Term for An Aspiring Kennedy

After our

big (and bigger) announcement last week,

I feel like I need to make a disclaimer here on my blog.

I know, I'm not showing at all. Hoping to graduate over the "ate too much lunch" look soon.

These little chunks are, undeniably, going to be a big part of my life

and Tyler & I are constantly chatting about what their addition in our lives will bring.

But

I'm not expecting you to make them a huge part of your life, too.

 I'll try to keep my blog content generally the same formula.

European living + travel + love (family & friends) + spontaneous ramblings = AK

And

when

if sometimes I do overdo it in the months ahead

by posting too many baby pictures

because, instead of being in three countries that month,

I've only been to the mall and the park,

I know you'll be supportively indulgent for me...

and remember that I really don't want to be *that* girl.

I still want to be myself.

That chummy ex-pat girl who loves her husband,

feels lucky to have a job that meaningfully impacts her students,

wears too much fur and oversized jewelry,

 and constantly dreams of her next adventure &

 changing the world.

I'm just glad I get to share all of that

 with these two tiny souls.
