Our bedroom is long. And until recently, about half of it was never used. With a new baby on the way, we decided this would be the perfect space for a little nursery until baby is old enough for his/her own room, and then it would be turned into an office. So, after some […]
How Far Along: 40 Weeks. Hellooooooo due date! I wasn’t sure if I would see you, but alas, here you are. Symptoms: New this week are these sharp twinges I get on my upper inner thighs. They stop me in my tracks from walking, and if I stretch them out a bit they go away. Embarrassing Moment: I […]
Dear Baby of the Family: You began as a thought, a dream, a wonder. We prayed for you. We cried over you. And then you turned into a want, a need, a desire. So we prayed for you. And we cried over you. And then you came into our lives and we were immediately filled […]
How Far Along: 39 Weeks. It’s the final countdown! Symptoms: I pee easily. As in, if you make me laugh, I will probably pee. Let’s not laugh this week, okay? Embarrassing Moment: The fam and I were at the pumpkin patch and The Hubby made me crack up. So much so that I had to literally cross my […]
You were my first baby. The one who made me a mama. The one who taught me how to love in a way I never thought possible. You were my one and only baby for two years. Two years where I learned all about you. What you needed. What you wanted. How you lived. How […]
You have always been my baby. The baby brother to your sister. The baby to our family. The last one I carried in my stomach, the last one I nursed, the last one I toted around for months. You are the one who snuggled me when your older sister refused. The one who I let […]
How Far Along: 38 weeks. Symptoms: Things are really ramping up over here. Last weekend it was hard for me to get to sleep for a couple of nights because the belly was cramping up. But, nothing consistent. I am also officially waddling as the baby’s head is LOW. At my last appointment, I was 1.5 cm […]
Yesterday I shared the first half of our maternity photo shoot, (click HERE if you missed it) and today I am so excited to share the family portion. These photos represent a lot to me. They are the last family photos taken as a (somewhat) family of four. I don’t want to put aside these […]
My husband does a great job in making me feel like a beautiful woman. He really does. But the times he has exceeded my expectations are when I am expecting. I can honestly say that he has never made me feel more beautiful than when I am toting around a baby belly. He truly loves […]
How Far Along: 36 weeks. I have one month left. One. Month. This is madness! Symptoms: I got a good whiff of The Hubby’s coffee the other morning and whew! Stink! The baby’s head is also so low that it’s causing those twinges of pain and making it more difficult to pee. And no sudden or fast […]
