I’m sitting at home. ALONE. ALL ALONE. L I T E R A L L Y A L L A L O N E. And it’s been such a great day. I have done so much stuff today that has really filled my cup up to make me a whole human being again. As I […]
After a hectic start to Jolee’s life…where are we now? Well, I did not keep up month to month posts with Jolee. So, we are pretty much going to jump from 4 months old to now…1 year old. She’s perfect. And feisty. And funny. And I love her so much. As I was editing the […]
Throughout the whole Jolee’s Journey with the Bottle…I have remained cautiously optimistic about the whole situation. She’s taken a bottle and then not taken a bottle and then taken a bottle again. I hoped this was the end of everything. I hoped she was really going to take a bottle forever. Well, not forever, but […]
Raelynn has had some very minor medical issues. She’s had an ongoing UTI for about a month. We have been treating it, but it’s not been going away. It initially started because she was sick and running a fever. I took her to the doctor and they tested her for a bunch of different things […]
I’m not sure why I had the inconceivable idea that I could actually blog during Briar’s first 6 weeks of life. Sounds really optimistic, doesn’t it? I did, however, keep a small journal of notes, feelings, emotions, etc. that I experienced during the first 6 weeks so I could relay them here. As I hope […]
6 WEEKS LEFT I feel like I blink and the weeks go by. I thought it was supposed to be the complete opposite? Week 34 is recover from Christmas week. Clean up toys, clean up christmas decorations, put my house back together. We haven’t really had to do this in 3 years. And even when […]
I’m not really sure where this pregnancy has gone. I’m already down to 10 weeks left in this pregnancy. I honestly can’t believe it. The days and weeks just seem to literally fly by. With that said, I had a pretty monumental emotional breakdown on Wednesday of this week. I hadn’t really talked about it […]
This week was a pretty good week. We celebrated Halloween. We celebrate with all of our friends and I love it. I love hanging out with all my friends and I love seeing all of the kids together. It makes my heart so full. We all love each others children like our own. It’s the […]
Starting off with Raelynn. I swear, everyday she learns something new. A new word, a new phrase, a new song. It’s truly amazing. I never knew how much I would enjoy watching her grow and learn. She talks in third person a lot. “Rae Rae’s cup.” “Rae Rae get on couch.” She somewhat uses the […]
I continue to slack at life. I’m hoping this will be my last mass update. I completed my very first CrossFit Open. I did VERY average. But I’m VERY okay with that. These workouts pushed me to my limit, pushed me to wanting to quit every single workout, pushed me to want to puke my […]
I’m pretty sure this has been my longest blog break. And I totally need to blog, vent, let it out. Ready…here goes the timeline of events in the past two months: We now have our own house and we love it!!! It’s everything we’ve ever wanted plus more. I know that we are 100% where […]
Scott and I have started to have some marital issues. I feel like I have to disclose this first. Scott is and continues to be my number one supporter. I don’t know what I would do without him. He is one of the best guys ever. I feel like we’ve just been in a really […]
Today is the last day at my current job. I have so many mixed feelings about it; both good and bad. This job made me feel like I was useful again. it made me feel like more than a milk machine to my little girl. It made me feel like a person again. With all […]
