I wanted to update to my previous post from a few days ago. Some of you may have seen the post, I live in Texas and was out of power for days stressing about having to go into labor with that whole mess. It’s almost laughable now seeing as that would be the least of my worries.

On the fourth night of no power, we heard water dripping. We found multiple leaks from our ceiling and walls. A pipe had busted from the freezing temps, and before we knew it the small leak turned into our entire ceiling falling. Our house was flooded, it was an absolute disaster.

Yesterday I got the dreaded call from our landlord that we would not be able to return to our home. The damage was too extensive and would take longer than we can wait around for. We’ve lived there for five years, I had spent weeks on my hands and knees scrubbing walls, baseboards, nesting my life away and felt so prepared for this baby. And now my soon to be family of five has no home.

I’m grateful to have family nearby to stay with while we figure out a new situation, but it is tough to stay positive right now, especially with my due date in 10 days. I’m going to bring a baby into this world with no home to go to. I feel terrible, I’m hoping this resolved sooner than later. I just can’t believe any of this.
