Mother’s Day
As I’ve mentioned before, it was on Mother’s Day, now three years ago, that I found out that I was pregnant! It was surprising, exciting, terrifying, and it turned out to be the best thing that has ever happened to me! My little girl is now almost 2 1/2 years old and the surprises and …
Giving Back
There isn’t a day when I don’t think about or feel grateful for every single person that helped Luna Bell and Kevin and I through the past three years really. It has been three years since my VERY unexpected pregnancy began and I LOVED being pregnant!!!! I was very lucky and wasn’t sick a day …
New Year New Attitude
When I was pregnant and we found out that my pregnancy was high risk and that Luna Bell as probably going to have some challenges when she was born, I went into survival mode. I was only about keeping myself and my baby safe. I didn’t want certain people around me or things or noises …

As moms, we question ourselves about a million times a day.

Catch Up
Life with a baby is never slow. There is something new ever yday; a new face made, a new sound, a new movement and a new aspect of their little personality that shines through. When a little baby is playing catch up after four months in the hospital, the seemingly small things to most parents …
Mother’s Day
My “first” Mother’s Day, I found out that I was pregnant with Luna Bell. My first official Mother’s Day, I finally had my nearly 6 month old baby home from the hospital with me, and I still couldn’t believe that I was actually this beautiful girl’s mommy. I was filled with fear and the overwhelming …
