Third Trimester To Do List

I wish there was a list or a blog out there that I could have read to know what exactly I needed to do in order to get ready for Baby C and maternity leave. I don't mean nesting, registering or reading motherhood books. I mean registering for the hospital, signing up for classes, calling [...]

Mama Hair Must Haves

Mama Hair Must Haves

Before this decrease in energy hit me, the one thing that could make me feel beautiful no matter what was my hair! I've been wearing ponytails to work more days than I'd like and throwing it up in a bun anytime Christian and I go out. I finally decided enough was enough and I turned [...]

Farmhouse Style Cribs

Farmhouse Style Cribs

As many of you know my style is vintage, farmhouse with a hint of an industrial feel. I love old lettuce mandolins, vintage coffee grinders, shiplap and butcher block! If it's raw wood, I most likely will buy it and turn it into something fun! So for our baby girls' nursery we want to not [...]

There's a bit of irony behind the fact that I'm writing this blog today.. but we'll talk about that later. 😉 Since I brought you along for the wild, emotional, nauseating, rollercoaster ride of my first trimester, I thought it was only fair to fill you in on my journey into my second trimester! We all [...]

It’s Time To Be Honest About MY Pregnancy & CrossFit

Before I got pregnant I thought to myself "I will workout all throughout my pregnancy!" "I'm going to be that cute preggo CrossFit Mom!" Fast forward to actually being pregnant.. In the very beginning [before I officially knew I was pregnant] I was noticing that I was tiring easier in workouts and I was becoming [...]

I peed on a stick.. WE’RE PREGNANT

Okay guys, we're back tracking a bit.. but here it goes: Today is February 19th, 2017. This morning at around 8:00 am I took an at home pregnancy test.. not the one with the lines but the "to-the-point" one that says either YES or NO. As I waited THE FULL (and longest 3 minutes of my [...]
