It’s Baby Time!

life

It’s a little surreal to look at my daughter who turns five years old today and know that at this time tomorrow, I’ll be holding a newborn. It’s also very exciting. Tomorrow morning, we’ll be heading to the hospital to prepare for the birth of our baby boy that afternoon. I am nervous, excited, anxious, [...]

Raising a Boy: New Challenges to Come?

life

I’ve been thinking about the fact that soon I will have a baby boy in our house. After five years of parenting a girl, I’m interested in seeing how different it will be to parent a boy. There are so many things you deal with when raising girls, like talking about bras at the age [...]

Tubes Tied or Vasectomy?

Fertility

Ever since we found out we were pregnant and expecting our second child, we’ve been thinking about whether or not we wanted any more children. The husband is set on no more, and I’m about 99% sure. But, there’s that 1% that says “what if” to me. So, our discussions regarding either me getting my [...]

Will We Deal with Jealousy from the Big Sister?

Being a Big Sister

With all the sweet big sister love our daughter is showing about her baby brother or sister, there are times when she shows just a hint of jealous tendencies. Nothing major, really; not anything that’s to be unexpected after being the only child for more than 4 years. And, not all the time either. She [...]

Big Sister Love

Being a Big Sister

As I mentioned a few weeks back, our baby girl is super excited that she’ll soon be a big sister. Every day she rubs my belly, kisses my belly, and talks to the baby. Everything I do revolves around the baby in her mind. Take a shower? “Is the baby clean now mommy?” If I [...]

How Does a Baby Get Out Of the Mommy’s Belly?

life

A few months back, our family of three sat down to eat dinner on a night as ordinary as any other. Ordinary, that is, until mid-way through the food on my plate, just as I was about to stick my fork into my mouth, my 4 year old baby girl pipes up and asks, “How [...]

Oh Pollen…How I Hate You

life

Oh my God people. I need some help. I’ve been having a horrible case of allergies this past week. Sneezing, watery/itchy eyes, scratchy throat…you name it. I’m sure many of you have been dealing with it as well as I’ve seen just about everyone I know complaining about how bad this allergy season is so [...]
