Family: Meet the Midwives
This past weekend, we had the opportunity to tour the hospital where the baby will be born, and also attend a Q&A session with the midwifery group that we’ve been seeing. The group is very similar to our care in Tucson while I was pregnant with Liv. There are multiple midwives in the practice, and…

Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookie Granola
You guyyysssssss. Behold the latest snack obsession. I was trying to think of another breakfast option that I could make in advance, since eggs don’t travel too well and I’ve been wanting to switch it up from the usual breakfast cookies and cookie dough cereal. Granola instantly came to mind, as it’s one of my…

‘Tis the Seasons(52)
Hi friends! How was your weekend? Hope you had a great one! Ours was packed with productivity and fun events; the perfect weekend mix of low-key and “get it done.” I also got to cash in on my Mother’s Day gift: sleeping until I chose to wake up! (<— nothing says “I love you” like…

Doula, round two-la
(I couldn’t help myself.) As I mentioned before, it’s been nicer to go into this pregnancy with a more relaxed and trusting mindset. As I think it’s expected with first-time moms, during my pregnancy with Liv, I couldn’t read fast enough. I happily swam in pregnancy books, could easily tell you which fruit or vegetable…

She has also been glued to my side for the past couple…
