I’ve been a little quiet the past couple months, and if you’re wondering why, a major reason has to do with the fact that I’m pregnant! Unlike with my pregnancy with Millie, this little guy took us completely by surprise. I always knew I wanted more kids, and since it took us so long and we needed help with Millie, I assumed it may be the same with future babies. But life has a funny way of working out, and one day several months ago when I felt really queasy, I took a pregnancy test and it was quick to let me know that I was pregnant.
I am already close to the halfway point, and we found out that he’s a boy, which I am SO EXCITED about! I have actually felt really good compared to how I felt with Millie, but I’ve been put on rest a few times now because I’ve had some bleeding problems. The specialist is following me, so I have been having to lay low — no exercising (that wasn’t a problem as I had yet to start exercising post-Millie, whoops), no lifting, and trying overall to take it easy and rest more. It’s hard having a young and busy toddler at the house who doesn’t understand why I can’t pick her up as much or go for long walks, but we are making it work. Sometimes this worries me a bit, but I try to stay busy and not let my mind wander. Hoping that things are doing better by the next appointment!
I am so excited to add to our little growing family, and though Millie has no clue what she’s in for, I think she’ll be a great (and very jealous and confused) older sister. I’m due in the first week of January, so come the new year, we’ll have a new member of the PurseBlog family! I’ll share a bit more with you all along the way, and of course have my Dear Millie updates coming soon. Can’t believe our little lady is nearing the two-year mark!

Congratulations!!! What a delightful news! Thank you for sharing with us!
Congrats!! I’m also expecting a baby boy in december 😀 Would be awesome if you did a diaper bags special
For sure will do – especially since I need a bag that will now be good for two small kids!

Yayayayayyaya! Congratulations to you and Vlad – and big sister Millie! As the parent of two girls – this is my FAVORITE big sister book. I know Millie might be a little young to appreciate all of it, but it’s so fun to read 🙂

Congrats on your expectant bundle of joy! My sister is due near Jan for her 2nd child too (mid Nov), First baby of course requires at least one sibling!
Funny timing! Good luck to her as well!
Congratulations, Megs and Vlad. It’s always nice to have a sibling to look out for one another when they are older. Wishing you a smooth pregnancy.
Hoping the rest of the pregnancy is smooth and healthy!! Thank you!
Congrats!!! So happy for you, dear!!
Sweet picture. Great news. Congrats.
Big congrats!
Best news I’ve had all week! So happy for you. Warmest congratulations!!
Thank you!! So happy to share with you all!
HUGE congratulations!!! I hope everything continues to go smoothly in your pregnancy!! So happy for you and your family!!
Sweet girl! Congrats Meg and Vlad, wishing you the best with the rest of your pregnancy! 🙂
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations on your family’s latest blessing! All the best for a smooth and healthy pregnancy!
That’s awesome! She’s such a little darling!
OMG Megs and Vlad – huge congrats!! I have a daughter and then a son – both are wonderful for totally different reasons ?. Funnily enough my son (who is 10) is far more into fashion than my 14 year old daughter. We recently went to Europe and he bought himself an awesome leather jacket with his birthday money! Totally into leather and nice things ?you and your baby come before everything else.
I wouldn’t be surprised if our son would love fashion more than Millie – I know she is young, but she hates any accessory that I put on her and really just loves sticks and playing and climbing. You truly never know what their personality and likes will be!
You are wise to recognize what each one’s individual personality and strengths are, then nurture and direct them to be who they are!
Congratulations!
Absolutely! I want my kids to be who they want to be and always help them get there to be confident with that as well 🙂
Congratulations!!!!!! With the Dear Millie that you share with us it’s a given that she will be an amazing sister. Blessings to you and your family!!
Thank you! I am so excited to see how she will be as an older sister… who knows?!
An heir and a spare. Perfect!
Last pic is darling. Worth duping in oil so it lasts forever.
Her face in that second pic is priceless – she also has no clue what she’s in for! Ha
Amazing news. Congratulations. So happy for you Megs and Vlad. Wish you all the best for both of you.
Thank you! We are so excited!
Best news all week! (as someone previously said).
Millie already is looking like a confident big Sis–congrats to all of you (pup included) 🙂
Brutus will be great with the little guy – he is SO good with Millie, we are lucky! And thank you!
Congrats! So yhappy for y’all.
My first shares Millie’s bday, and I’m also due with my second first week of January! Call me a dork, but that really made me happy. I love that I can go to my favorite blog to read about handbags AND babies ;-). Many congratulations!!!
Wait really?! That is CRAZY!!!!!! I am going to have a repeat C-section so soon I should know the date of baby boy’s birth day (which is so bizarre to me). I’ll be sure to give him monthly letters too, but please keep me posted on your little ones! Hope you’re feeling well!
Awe, yay! I’m a boy Mom, and I love it. Enjoy the chaos!
I’m so excited!
This is fantastic news…I’m so happy for the Dusil family-YAY!! Millie looks so happy too! I love the announcement photo! Best of luck with everything!
Thank you so much! She was very happy in those pics but it’s because I was singing her Baby Shark…. not because she realizes a brother is on the way hahaha 😉
Is Babyshark like a new thing? My toddler is also obsessed with it. It seems to have come out of nowhere!
These pix of Millie are adorable! I’m sure she will be a great Big Sister! Congrats!
I think you need a Boy bag (Chanel) for the arrival of your boy?!?! 😉 congratulations! wonderful news. I’m due in November with my second 😉 xx
YES I am team need a Bag bag for baby boy!!! And congrats to you as well – hope you’re feeling good!

Congratulations, Megs and Vlad!?? ??? ?Our community is growing wonderfully with the addition of a baby. Millie is gorgeous. She is already giving us her Cecile B. DeMille closeup. ???
Thank you! A little dude to keep us on our toes 🙂
Congratulations! Millie is such a sweetie!
I am so happy for you guys, big congrats! I have exactly the same age gap between my kids and it will become easier down the road and one thing I realized it is so good for the kids to be closer in age vs to have a bigger gap. All the best for all of you!!!
YAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!! Cannot wait to see Millie’s interaction with baby boy Dusil! Her expressions are amazing. So excited for your growing family. God has a wonderful way of blessing us!!!
Many Congratulations! Adorable pics of your daughter!
