Ah, modern technology. Isn't it just the best sometimes? I know it's a hot button topic that our society is WAY too technology and social media centered, and I totally can get on board with those arguments in certain situations. BUT - when you are breastfeeding a new baby and learning your routine, an app that tracks which side you started feeding on so you don't have to remember when the next ...
To Our First Baby
My sweet little boy, you will be one next week, yet it feels like you've filled our whole hearts for so much longer. I wish you could understand how you have changed your daddy and I's world. Before you, I was content, I was happy, I didn't feel like you were missing. Your daddy and I had a life full of love and laughter and joy, but I never could have fathomed how the fullness and joy could ...

Let's see what happens....GO! First things first...pregnancy updates. Because ...

It might be for some of you lucky ladies out there (I'm glad you can't feel my resentment as I type... 😉), but for the majority of the female species, it's nine months of heartburn, mood swings, back pain, and the appetite of fifteen morbidly obese men. I definitely haven't had a bad pregnancy, ...
It’s a…
Boy! We are having a sweet little baby boy in July. ^^ That's how we announced it on social media a few days ago. I posted the black and white picture, opened up the floor for anyone who wanted to make any guesses, and then posted the color version later. So much fun! If you've read a lot of my past blog posts, you know that I was feeeeeeling like it was a boy but kind of wanting it to be a ...
Guess What?!
OH my goodness, I cannot possibly explain how hard it has been to wait this long to share this news with you guys!! I. Have. Been. Dying. Every single post I've written since the very beginning of November, I've been one spastic keyboard motion away from typing "OH BY THE WAY I'M PREGNANT" and then frantically clicking publish. I overshare on this blog like every single day, and keeping this to ...
