Lorelei Marie- 1 month

Lorelei Marie- 1 month

Lorelei is one month old today. I know I'm constantly complaining about how quickly time seems to be moving, but holy crap. It's moving at warp speed with baby #3. I just wish I could slow things down a little. This sweet girl is really starting to develop a little...

Self care

Self care

Taking care of my emotional health is not something I'm good at remembering to do. It isn't until I'm spiraling downward and have to hole myself up in my room with netflix/chocolate/alcohol/etc that I actually realize, "Huh, maybe if I would have stopped to take a...

Life with a little sister: Week 4

Life with a little sister: Week 4

This week was significantly better than last in terms of my mental health. I only cried a handful of times versus last week when the crying was pretty much all the time. We even survived a couple of outings- we had a midwife appt. Ms. Lorelei is up 2 whole pounds from...

Life with a little sister: Week 3

Life with a little sister: Week 3

This was my first week alone and holy crap... it was a tough one. The beginning of the week started out fine. I was able to keep the boys entertained while Lorelei slept... because she sleeps a lot during the day, but not so much at night. I feel like no one was...

Easter 2015

Easter 2015

Easter was our last day of Chris' paternity leave. Logan had been running a fever and not feeling well, but luckily he woke up on Easter morning feeling (and acting) great. We had talked about pushing our Easter festivities back a week, but since everyone was healthy...

Life with a little sister: Week 2

Life with a little sister: Week 2

Week 2 was more of the same from week 1. Lorelei and I spent more time up and around the house. And we had a couple of family outings because I was starting to get a tad bit stir crazy. Our first outing was to Kid2Kid and Target. We got to use our MobyWrap for the...

Life with a little sister: Week 1

Life with a little sister: Week 1

Sweet Baby Belvin was born 3.14.2016 at 11:04am. You can read her birth story here (when I actually post it). The first week was a total whirlwind. Reflecting back on it now, I can't believe it's over. I can't believe that my sweet baby is already a week old. I've...

Last belly snuggles before Belvin

Last belly snuggles before Belvin

We took a few photos of the boys with the baby bump a few days before Baby Belvin was born. For the most part, the boys have been obsessed with the belly and have enjoyed talking about their new brother or sister. We've had a few moments (especially lately) of some...
