Early Friday Morning: January 27 I bet some men choose to become anesthesiologist who specialize in giving epidurals because they want to know what it feels like to be worshipped. To show up in a laboring woman's room and feel like he's prince charming. When my prince charming showed up it was like he floated in pushing …
It Will Come…
Part 2 of Esther's birth story is coming. I just have to find time to write it. I've written it in my head a hundred times, I just have no time to put it here in a form that makes sense. I need that software, Dragon, so I can speak it and it will be …
Coming Up for Air (but only for a quick second)
Edited to Add: I actually wrote this post yesterday and just now got the chance to post it. So, yep- welcome to parenthood. Whew! First... Hey (: For those of you who don't know, our little angel arrived on Friday morning kicking and screaming (although you wouldn't know it from this serene face, would you?). …

39 Weeks
Hiya everyone! Me here. We had our 39 week appointment today. I am in a much better state of mind now than I was earlier today. I've been experiencing a wave of anxiety in regards to labor/delivery and making sure baby is fine these last few weeks. I'm not sure where it came from, just …
38 Weeks. Tick Tock, Tick Tock

Life was good before too, but now it's good good now that I can move my body!! The doctor released me from bed rest on Thursday and I could not be any happier. I got the "ok" to start moving around and building up my strength and endurance before little girl gets here. After out appointment …
35 Weeks and Last Week of Bed Rest
We have our 36 wk appointment on Thursday and I couldn't be more anxious/excited! Our doctor said she'd release me from bed rest once (if) we made it to 36. What I'm hoping is that she'll count our appointment as that milestone instead of Sunday when I technically turn 36 weeks. When I say I …
ode to my little family of 2
i'm not sure how long we'll be a family of 2. i'm feeling fine for the most part. my body continues to grow and ache in new places, but i don't think any of that is a sign that baby girl is on her way. that being said, i know that doesn't mean a thing …
