Family: 36 week ultrasound + doula meeting

Friday was my last ultrasound appointment! Since weโ€™re pretty confident that two kiddos is our max, I really tried to take some time to savor the screen and watching our baby move -who is currently smashed up in there, so itโ€™s harder to determine what body part is which- and enjoy the experience. That is,…

It tastes better that way.” [While smelling her hair…

Squatember Workout

Hi friends! Howโ€™s the morning going? So glad itโ€™s humpday!  Yesterday, we were given a wonderful surprise: RAIN all day, and it was amazing. It cooled everything down, and while itโ€™s long gone (more humid and heat headed our way), it was a nice respite from the sauna haha. Last night, I taught a fun…

Family: pregnancy snacks

Itโ€™s so hard to believe that weโ€™re getting to the finish line (or starting lineโ€ฆ)!  Iโ€™m starting to get nervous/anxious/excited, especially since Iโ€™ve been having some intense Braxton-Hicks contractions. They start in my stomach, which starts to cramp and becomes rock hard, and move all the way back to the base of my spine. I…

How was the weekend?  Ours was packed with fun events, and in between the activities and parties, we managed to get a lot of things done around the house.  I FINALLY finished Liviโ€™s little photo collage Iโ€™d been working on, and think it came out pretty well. (She gasped and…

Family: Weeks 33-35

And feelingโ€ฆ. Excited! And slow. Iโ€™m definitely in a third trimester slump right now. I feel completely normal, except that new normal is like a truck hit me. Doing basic tasks involve heavily weighing my options. (Do I really need to walk all the way to the kitchen to put this LaCroix can in the recycling?…
