Special Moments

I wish I could record every minute of every day with Eva. I don’t want to forget anything. All of her smiles, all of her coos, even all of her tears. These past two weeks have been incredible, but unfortunately I don’t have enough time to write about it all. So here are a couple […]

Closet Makeover

Last March I found out I was pregnant and the three months before that I put on a little weight, so this year I put fashion on hold and barely shopped at all. The few maternity clothes I bought were simple and rather bland, so needless to say, I’m a little behind on fashion which […]

Happy One-Week Birthday, Eva!

One week! She is one week old today. This week has been the FASTEST, but the best. While I was feeding Eva today, I was thinking about this past week and how one week ago I was delivering our darling baby girl. Of course, it made me tear up. How could it not? She is […]

{Guest Post} Motherhood

We thought for sure we would be having a baby boy. For some reason we even picked out only boy names and was prepared to confirm our feelings at our Ultrasound checkup. The nurse said “it looks like a girl!” and my husband’s first response was “Are you sure? Can you double check please?” The […]

What does this mean?

To all of you who are sick of my blog posts about my pregnancy, such as my brother, I’m sorry. Take me off of your Google reader then. Today my mom and I were running errands and chatting in the car and I realized I was calm. Suspiciously calm. I haven’t cried once today. Not […]
