Dear Noah, It’s been a while since mommy wrote a letter to you here on her blog. Mostly because I’ve been doing better about keeping up with my hand-written journal; so I write notes and memos and things that I want you to remember and know there. But, you have a very big day coming […]

I ‘ve reached the point in my pregnancy where we are past the annoying “Oh, another boy…you must disappointed” and the “Wow! You still have xx numbers of weeks to go?” phase. Instead, we’ve hit the “Are You Ready?” phase. I know that most of the time people just ask this in a general “are […]

In fact, there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t wish for a Chick-Fil-A or an Olive Garden to just magically pop up somewhere […]

We’ve almost reached the end of this pregnancy. I hit the 35 week mark today. Which means that baby boy is almost full term and that we’ll be entering that “any day now” phase very, very soon. It’s bittersweet. Part of me is over the moon to be leaving pregnancy behind and eager to hold […]

Two measly weeks until this baby is full term. I was sitting in bed last night wondering where on EARTH the last few months have gone. I can’t believe this pregnancy has gone by so fast. I worried in the beginning that this one would drag and drag and drag because of how excited we […]

The last few weeks, as I’ve mentioned, have been difficult. I’m tired. My body is worn out in preparing for this new baby boy to arrive in the next few weeks. Work is wrapping up and everything on that end is coming to a close. I’m scared and nervous and excited and anxious all at […]
