  • I have taken zero new pictures lately because I have been on the struggle bus so here’s one of my sweet girl. I’ve been feeling pretty awful, and on top of all sorts of sickness, I broke out in hives all over and looked like Will Smith in Hitch when he drinks a bottle of Benadryl with a straw. We had some scares this week but all is good, we’re just being closely monitored while we wait for baby. Any way, this post wasn’t meant to be about all of my ailments lately but I share that to preface my real point: good people, good friends. I literally burst into tears today driving down the road just thinking about all of the really awesome people who I’m somehow lucky enough to call friends. People who have been checking on me constantly, offering their help, and just being there for me to vent (complain). I’m feeling very thankful to have so many good people in my life, like I just don’t even know how or why I get to know so many awesome, pure good people. I just had to share that. And also, we are officially 37 weeks on Saturday and praying this baby takes after his older brother and decides to make his entrance promptly thereafter 🤞🤞 Until then, I’ll just be over here fending off hives, vomiting, severe heartburn, and pain basically everywhere. 😬🤗

  • It’s a serious blessing when one of your closest friends happens to be an amazing photographer — @emma_casagrande you are the best 💕 36 weeks pregnant tomorrow, having lots of contractions, pain, and sickness. With the way I’ve been feeling lately I would be surprised if I don’t have another early baby, but I’m also trying to remind myself that I could potentially still be pregnant a month from now 🤦‍♀️ Taking guesses on when this little guy will come! Don’t be like Alana, she said April and she is grounded. (Not that it matters when you’re 3.)

  • #AD | When you only get one cup (sometimes two, let’s be real) per day, you have to make it good. I mentioned how much the kids love this Silk Oat Yeah Vanilla Oatmilk from @silk the other day, but I just have to bring it up again because mama just found another use for it – coffee!! I ran out of creamer because I haven’t been to the store (#thirdtrimesterlife) so I tried this Silk Oat Yeah Vanilla Oatmilk in my coffee instead and it’s so good! And let’s be real, it’s a much better choice than my regular creamer since it’s vegan AND free from dairy, nuts, soy, carrageenan, cholesterol, and artificial colors and flavors. And now I don’t need to go to the store just for creamer today, so there’s a pregnant mom win for ya!

  • #AD What’s better than regular s’mores by the fire pit? Coconut marshmallow s’mores with a cup of Vanilla Silk Oat Yeah Oatmilk! We have always opted for non-dairy milks, so when I saw this new Oatmilk by @silk at our local Walmart, we had to give it a try. The kids loved it so much that Kai ended up “sneaking” the entire carton out to the fire pit under his shirt. Of course, I didn’t mind if they had a cup with their s’mores because it’s free from dairy, nuts, soy, carrageenan, cholesterol, and artificial colors and flavors…and it’s vegan!  Side-note: Silk Oat Yeah Oatmilk also comes in regular and chocolate flavors….yum!

  • A little over 35 weeks now! Thursday at our co-op the awesome ladies there surprised me with lots of diapers, wipes and gifts for baby and then yesterday my sweet friends threw me a sprinkle which means we are now finally ready for baby thanks to everyone’s kindness & love for our babe — oh, and we bought a minivan. This time last year I said I was done having kids and I would never drive a minivan. 😬🤦‍♀️ #neversaynever 📷 credit to my amazing friend @emma_casagrande . 👗from @shoppinkblush .
