    28 Weeks – Baby Bird

      How far along? 28 weeks Total weight gain/loss: Sitting at 3lbs Maternity clothes? Yep… and some shirts aren’t as long as they need to be… This one will need to be retired soon 🙁 Stretch marks? Same old ones I’ve had since Boogie! Sleep: Some nights I have good long stretches of deep sleep, others I’m waking up constantly from nightmares and hip pain.  Best moment this week: Seeing Bird move all over my belly, she is getting SO strong! Movement: Bird moves a lot, this week, as I mentioned above, she’s been moving so much we can physically see her kicking and punching. She was up in my ribs during mine and J’s movie…

    10 Rules for Dads With Daughters

    I’ve been trying to think of some good posts for the month of September, racking my brain and taking notes… we’ve had so much going on, in every kind of way that nothing seemed right. Then I was reminded (not because I had forgotten, but because it just wasn’t at my top list of priorities) that on the 15th J and I would be celebrating our 7th wedding anniversary. Seven years with this incredible man, a man I dreamt of having babies with and growing old with! When we started talking about having babies he always said, “I just want to have a daddy’s girl!” His prayers were answered when…

Maternity clothes? Yep… this shirt isn’t though (obviously) Stretch marks? Same old ones I’ve had since Boogie! Sleep: Starting to have more hip/back pain so sleeping is starting to become more difficult… should have know that the closer I got to the third trimester that it would start! Best moment this week: Honestly…. making it through this week was the best moment. Movement: Bird moves a lot, and she’s really super low so I’m running to the bathroom a lot too :-\ Food cravings: Haven’t had any major cravings this week actually Gender: Girl! Labor signs: None. Belly button in or out? It’s…

    24 Weeks – Baby Bird

      How far along? 24 weeks Total weight gain/loss: I haven’t weighed myself lately, so I honestly don’t know… maybe I’ve gained a pound or two haha! Maternity clothes? Yep… although the black shirt I’m wearing in this belly update isn’t maternity, it’s actually one I reviewed HERE! Stretch marks? Same old ones I’ve had since Boogie! Sleep: Well, I have been sleeping OK… though last night this little bird of mine kept me all night with her feet in my ribs! Best moment this week: Viability! Movement: Typically lots of movement, especially in the evenings or when I’m sitting down with one of the older kids in my lap… she had me worried yesterday though,…

    Love These Babies!

    It’s been a while since I really posted about life and the kids… and myself in general. Sure, there have been posts here and there updating on the kids and such, but I’ve neglected what I wanted this blog to really be about. I do love sharing reviews and giveaways, but that’s not what I want my sole focus to be.   Our family is growing very quickly before my eyes! That also means new challenges and phases to learn and work through. I realize that as our children get older each age will show different and harder challenges, but so far, with our experience…. age 3 is ROUGH. Boogie…
