Week 39

This is the last time you will see this dress, I promise! I’m also hoping this is the last time you see a pregnancy photo, but that I can’t promise. Not many updates on the baby front. I have had more and more contractions each day, but they are still quite sporadic. I also notice [...]

Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

I made this pineapple upside-down cake for after Easter dinner at my in-laws house. I am not much of a cake person really, I tend to prefer delicious fruit filled pies, but things like this or carrot cake I am crazy about. Surprisingly this was my very first time making it. I don’t know why [...]

Baby Doll Bath

I want to say a big thank you to all you before I begin today’s post….just in case a baby comes and I forget later! I really feel so lucky to have so many amazing readers, this pregnancy has been real proof of that. Everyone’s kind words, advice, and personal stories have really made the [...]

Baby Watch!

Today I am 39 weeks pregnant. I guess you could say that the baby watch is on. It is really weird to think that 9 months has passed and any day now I could be holding this little baby in my arms and responsible for her little precious life. I obviously want her out for [...]

Week 38

Really now, I can’t get much bigger. I am ready little lady, please make your appearance very soon. Mama is tired of not being able to roll over in bed, eat clam chowder, have a margarita when the mood strikes, lift big boxes, and bumping the door into you every time I try to close [...]

Red Beans and Rice Recipe

It has been ages since I posted a recipe or anything about food, but I guess it has also been ages since I have felt at all creative when it comes to cooking. Now that we are in a new place and I have a larger kitchen than ever (yay!), I think that is all [...]

Week 37

Well we are completely moved out of the old apartment. It has been a wild and crazy week, and I am so thankful for all the help we received from both of our families. I have been working on unpacking for a few days now, but with this big massive belly it is a bit [...]

Week 36

Our lives are mostly packed up. Going through all my stuff and getting rid of things along the way makes me really anxious to go to estate sales. It has been ages since we have gone and I am feeling the bug. I wonder how it will be with a tiny baby in tow. I [...]

Baby Cedar + Baby Russ

Last night after a long day of packing and getting things ready to move I lay down on the couch and began flipping through The Baby Book (which by the way if you haven’t seen it is excellent). After I put the book down Russ picked it up and pointed at the third baby and [...]
