I didn’t actually make it to 40 weeks…little Mr. Baby decided that it was time to be born! My whole life has changed in the course of a week- it’s this amazing, life altering, terrifying, somewhat traumatic, and completely beautiful experience all at once to give birth to another life. It will have been a …
39 weeks. Only one more week until our due date! I am getting really excited but nervous- I have no idea what to expect! We are gonna be parents…oh my word. It’s setting in. Mom is here, Dad is coming in tomorrow, and baby will be here…when? No one knows! This past week was good- …
Ooops, I am super late with this post! I have been so busy with getting the house/nursery ready for baby! There is so much to do, and such very little time to do it! I am still going to work everyday, which is becoming such. a. chore. Even a regular day shift is starting to …
We’ve made it! This sweet baby boy is full term! We could go into labor anytime now, and he wouldn’t be considered “premie” anymore, although we’re still 3 weeks away from my due date of June 7! I still feel pretty good (knock on wood), I think mostly because I’m working so much that there’s …
Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms out there! I guess I’ll be joining those ranks, soon! Mr. Handsome surprised me by celebrating for me, even though I haven’t had this baby yet! He brought me breakfast in bed yesterday and took me to Cleveland for dinner at the Melting Pot last night, which was …
Only 5 more weeks of work…give or take! Somehow, my belly continues to expand, and he’s really sitting very high in my belly. He’s stayed up in my ribs for weeks now, but I actually don’t mind it as much as I minded the morning sickness, believe it or not! We still have to get …
The countdown is really on, with only 6 weeks until my due date! I can’t believe we’re already here! I’m feeling pretty good in general, except when I do too many chores/projects around the house…that always results in tailbone pain. Especially lifting- even just a full laundry basket. My poor back must have had it …
Wow, 33! We’re coming down to the wire! The majority of the weekend we’ve spent preparing the nursery. Mr. Handsome painted the changing table, and I sewed some curtains and made some DIY art. I used to love painting and crafting; it’s now much harder to bend myself over a canvas with this large belly …
Already, we’re at 32 weeks! Time is flying!! I did skip last week, because I actually stayed in out of town last weekend~ we had our Baby shower! So, 2 weeks ago, I went to the doctor, and he said everything looks good- baby’s heart, weight, movements, etc.- all good. He did mention, however, that …
Happy Easter!!! For Easter, I made a coconut cake, which is my favorite on Easter. It’s an Angel Food Cake, topped with pina colada mix, whipped cream, and toasted coconut. And, for the extra Easter-ness, I added some candy eggs to the top, like little nests. Probably would have been cuter in cupcakes, but it’s …
