I didn’t grow up daydreaming about my wedding and the many little babies I couldn’t wait to have. I didn’t fantasize about every detail with my dress and my dad walking me down the aisle. I didn’t pray for God or the Universe to bless me with a family and think about how I wanted […]

Third Trimester Part Three (to week 41)
Third trimester happenings: Currently writing this as we round the corner into week 41. This homestretch is turning out to be the hardest. I pride myself on being pretty even keeled and not overly emotional but this time has been testing (and hey, some of it I can’t help with all these crazy hormones, right??). We’ve […]
The Last…
Here’s a little somethin’, somethin’ I’ve been doing on the last day of each month (can’t believe August is over already)! Enjoy! I’d love to know yours!
Third Trimester Part Two (through week 35)
Third trimester happenings: We are in the home stretch! About a month out which is crazy. Throughout this pregnancy I’m learning to not put too much thought into other people’s experiences. People say the third trimester time slows down, you get huge, you feel like crap, etc. I think at some points I was waiting to […]
The Last…
Here’s a little blurb I’ve been doing on the last day of each month. In this case, I was a day late. Oops! Also, I mention Shakeology twice in this month’s post and if anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask me. I’ve been selling it since I started drinking it because I […]
Second Trimester Part Three – Third Trimester Part One (to week 33)
Second trimester happenings: It’s week 24 and we are trying out another name. We’re hoping this one will stick (but round one we also thought would stick and here we are) but we shall see. Also, once we do 100% decide we are keeping it a secret (SORRY!). I’ve got great news! The Raynaud’s I talked about […]
The Last…
Here’s a little blurb I’m going to start doing on the last day of each month. Enjoy! What are yours?
Second Trimester Part Two (to week 24)
Second trimester happenings: It’s week 19 and the heating pad is officially my best friend. I’ll often sleep with it to help with any sciatica pains I’m having (and I’m sure the aches and soreness of my body will continue as I grow and stretch so I’ll be keeping it on hand). It’s also helped with […]
Second Trimester Part One (through week 18)
Second trimester happenings: It’s week 15 and it has now fully sunk in that the baby is a girl. We announced on social media a week or so ago and the outpour of love has been amazing. I thought people were happy when we announced our engagement and marriage but this is a whole different level. […]
Weeks
Throughout your life you measure time differently. Years in school, months until your wedding date, or days until your big vacation. I’ve reached a point where I’m now measuring time in weeks. It’s currently January 25th, 2018 and week 7.5 of being pregnant (although I didn’t find out for sure until a week ago). Two […]
