My life for yours

Here is Bowen on our recent weekend trip to Montana.  I’ll be sharing more about that little getaway later.

Today has been just an ok day.  It wasn’t unbelievably great, nor was it unbelievably bad.  There was just kind of a little dark cloud looming over me today.  It was there because I have [...]

Mother’s Day gifts

This year for Mother’s Day (my first one!), I got to shop a little bit on Etsy. I wasn’t looking for anything in particular, but I did want something for the nursery. After a little while of clicking around, I stumbled across these adorable prints. I couldn’t resist that cute giraffe.  It was also exciting [...]

Here We Are!

We’re all moved in!  Boxes are slowly being unpacked and we’re adjusting well to all the changes that come with owning a home.  Yard work, cleaning 1700 square feet of space (compared to our previous 680 square feet), etc., etc.  I’m really surprised at how much I love working in the yard.  I always hated yard [...]

3 years

Happy anniversary, Michael.  The past 3 years have been the best of my life!

Bowen at (almost) 4 months

Bowen will be 4 months old next week.  My little 9 pound 8 ounce boy is almost 17 pounds now and he’s wearing clothing that’s made for 6-9 month-old babies.  His smiles and laughs get cuter everyday.

He took his first road trip last week to visit [...]

Bowen’s Birth

My baby is 1 week old today.  I can hardly believe it.  My 9-month pregnancy journey ended 7 days ago.

Bowen Elias is a wonderful, beautiful, healthy, and happy baby.  He is so sweet and content.  I love being a mom.

Michael and I had been waiting and waiting for labor to kick in since [...]

Baby Bump

Here is my small collection of baby bump photos.  I didn’t start taking pictures of my growing belly until week 18 (I’m now kicking myself for waiting that long), but oh well.  I really didn’t start to show until about that week anyway.

The classic bathroom mirror pose. 18 weeks.

The photos below were [...]

Summer: part II

It is already the end of August and I haven’t really accomplished anything that I wanted to when I made my last post in June.

Oh well.

I ended up doing other fun and exciting things.

I celebrated my 23rd birthday in July (which just happened to fall on a beautiful, glorious Friday that had [...]
