My sweet little Lily has the cutest smile and I love the way she looks at me after I’ve been at work and I finally come home to get her, but…it just doesn’t compare to the way she looks at her Daddy. I carried that little girl for 9 months. Suffered aches and pain, sleepless…
I was nervous about bringing Lily home to introduce her to our dog Zoey, not because I thought Zoey would be mean to her, but because I thought she might act out. Since day one, Zoey, our little Maltese/Silky Terrier mix, has been super sweet, protective and loves to be around Lily all the time.…
So much happens so fast in the first few months with your new baby and the changes that they go through are even crazier! My cousin just had a baby and looking at how new and little she is, I feel like I just blinked and Lily has turned into a “little baby” instead of…
The St. Jude Radiothon this year was a completely different experience than any other year. When you’re a mom or parent…it’s an entirely new ball game. The emotions are different and the stories felt more real than ever before. I found myself listening to these tragic stories and putting my little Lily into the shoes…
Stomach bugs are no fun for anyone, but having a 10 week old baby with a stomach bug….is terrible. Of course we can’t keep our babies from getting sick with a cold or stomach bug forever, but I at least thought I could keep her from getting one until she was a little bit older!…
Adjusting to motherhood is a lot harder than you’d think! It’s beautiful and amazing having this little person to love on and snuggle all of the time, there is no doubt about that. But, there are some ‘kinks’ that us “new moms” have to work out before we feel 100% comfortable in our “new mom…
The BEST Day of my life (right next to our wedding day), was the day our daughter, Lily, was born. It was also the longest day of my life!! When people tell you that your ‘idea’ of how your baby’s birth is going to go is never actually what happens…it’s so true. I should have…
No baby yet! Yes, i’m still working, yes, my belly is huge and yes, it’s rough! I know baby gets to decide when she wants to come out and she’s still strengthening her little lungs and putting on weight, but I wouldn’t mind if she was ready to come out….right now! So, what do you…
Here we are! 39 weeks and everything hurts. Baby is full term and I can not wait to meet her…hopefully soon! My due date is next week, but any day that she wants to make her grand entrance into the world, we are ready! The baby’s size compared to a watermelon sounds HUGE, but when…
37 Weeks and counting down the days now!! It was definitely time to pack the hospital bag (last week!) so, here we are, still checking off items on my list. What to pack??? That was a harder question than I thought! There are so many lists out there and your hospital bag could go from…
