    Let’s Talk Boobies, Who-ha’s and Well…  

    07/05 /2 Comments

    I learned in a quick hurry that your body is no longer your own after a baby. You are now the life source for your lil one (if you choose to bf) and if you had sweet images of feeding like I had, WRONG. I pictured it as a sweet bonding moment laying in a field of flowers I suppose. What I got was angry barracuda that attacked like it was the last supper. You also will experience who-ha (lady part) sensations unlike any other and then your first umm pooh happens! Your milk does not come in for a few days, which to me is a cruel joke via…

    I love singing to my lil one. This song is so dear to me because of our struggles to get pregnant and have a successful pregnancy. This is very raw and emotional but I believe that is what makes it special.

    Bringing Baby Home- This Mama’s Journey!

    06/29 /1 Comment

    Ahh the day you have been waiting for. To bring your wee lil babe home and begin the greatest adventure of your life! You have everything ready, the nursery, the clothes, the bedding, and all the love in the world to give. First thing we did when we were home was introduce the lil one to his fur sisters. Abby immediately b-lined to the back of the house, which was to be expected. Laney however was very curious. She reminded me of the scene in Lady and the Tramp when they bring the baby home and Lady is so sweet and curious. Laney did just this. She didn’t leave his…

    D Day! AKA Delivery.

    06/22 /2 Comments

    You have your bag packed, birth plan in hand, hubby has camera and his overnight bag, now waiting on baby! I started dilating on a Monday and did not have any real labor pains. I have read other mom’s tell their experience that they felt nauseated, had cramps and a laundry list of symptoms. I did not have any of this. I had, this baby is out of room, I can’t breathe and it is time! After seeing our Dr. early Thursday morning and instantly crying when she asked me how I was she agreed it was time. She sent me upstairs and the game was on! So I thought……

    While I was pregnant there were so many resources it would make your head spin! Everything from apps to books and blogs. Then of course everyone that had been there and wanted to tell you their experience. Once lil man came along however the real fun began! I had it in my mind that we would incorporate him into our life and we would continue on the way we had. DUMBEST comment I have ever made! Between the crying, feeding, diapers, dirty clothes, lack of sleep, household turned on its nose, dogs a nervous wreck and the list goes on, I soon realized Cooper was molding our life the way…
