Wordless Wednesday :: 27 Days and Counting Had my weekly visit to the OB on Monday and had a quick ultrasound to see what baby sister’s position was. She was head down initially, but by the end the tech said she was transverse. This has me a bit concerned since at this point she should [...]
Mama Wants to Nest If you have ever been pregnant before you know what I’m talking about right off the bat. There comes a point toward the end of your pregnancy where you get these burst of energy and want to accomplish everything big and small as a way to prepare for the arrival of [...]
10 Weeks to Go :: Feeling Really Unprepared WHAT?! Seriously…where did the time go? I feel like I just announced that G was going to be a big sister and here we are in the home stretch. We have a lot going on…a lot! We just bought a house, we are packing, we have a [...]
NUK Freshfoods Cook-n-Blend Baby Food Maker :: Things I wished I had for my first born! When G first started solids…way back when…I wanted to make sure she has the freshest foods. So, what did I do? I took matters into my own hands of course! I bought books on how to make first purees, [...]
Diaper changes have never been a pleasant experience in our house. Pretty much from day one with G she fought them tooth and nail by screaming hysterically. She was born in November and it was cold. Naturally we kept her bundled up and swaddled since that is what kept her peaceful. Well, what newborn wants [...]
My blogger friend Melissa Dell of Bubbalooch cloth diapers told me about using RLR to strip my diapers. Its been over a year since I have been using cloth on G, but had never heard of stripping with RLR. RLR is a laundry treatment used for whitening whites and striping the dingy away. I have [...]
Pregnant Snacks…that’s where I’m at. There is just no way I am eating as well as I did during my first pregnancy as I am now. With a toddler to chase, a puppy to watch and everything else that gets in the way during the day, sitting down to a meal isn’t always an option. [...]
Another not so wordless Wednesday. So, I went for my anatomy scan today, which always makes me nervous. I mean, I have’t seen the babe since about ten weeks and that was ten weeks ago. I was anxious to hear that heartbeat. It amazes me every single time. A sound that never gets old even [...]
This week on Wednesday I have my anatomy scan scheduled. T.J. and I, along with the rest of our family, are very anxious to know the gender of this little baby. We’ve never wanted it to be a surprise, even with G. I don’t know why, but that’s how we roll in this house. So, [...]
So here I am. I am about halfway through this pregnancy already. I can’t believe how fast the weeks are flying by. I remember being pregnant with G and the whole experience seemed much more drawn out. Maybe because it was my first pregnancy and I didn’t have a two year old to chase around. [...]
