We arrived at The Farm safely but had a pretty rough 48 hours with the sleepless Everly. We fully expected to have an adjustment period with her in the new surroundings. Each time we take a trip or stay the night somewhere other than our home she can’t relax and sleep. She’s very particular about...

Once you turn on to the main drag in Summertown, Tennessee you’ll likely be greeted with the sight of an Amish buggy in the gas station parking lot. Sometimes complete with an adorable (and so uncomfortably dressed) Amish family either selling things or taking a water break for the horses or something to that tune....

I did not carry this low with Everly and am kind of in awe of how stretchy and adaptable our bodies are right...

[POPUP=IMG1]Hello from pregnancy land! Here is another little update on the “cookin’” progress of Little Sister at the 36 week mark. The summary… This hurts!! I am carrying lower than with Everly and my poor pelvis is getting the brunt of the abuse thanks to gravity. Little Sister is knocking on my cervix, quite literally...

If you are going to put your back out and be temporarily disabled I strongly recommend doing so in a resting position, like curled in to a ball or in a sitting position if you have any say in the matter. That way while you are suffering and all gimped out you can at least...

Being so fatigued and being that we were still unpacking from doing a new home purchase at 7 months pregnant the nursery was just thrown together. In all reality, newborns really shouldn’t...

Last night Nathan and I celebrated our 9 year anniversary with a dinner out. Nothing real over the top since date nights and getting super keyed up is something I lack the energy for these days being that I am 34 weeks pregnant now. Everly was along for the dinner and we all had a...

It seems like every other preggo around is erring on the side of early when it comes to their baby’s birth. It is no wonder, I mean when you are as fat as a blimp and super uncomfortable why wouldn’t you want the process to end faster? Me? I am the dumb one that counts...

Someone was awake at 4 am crying. After peeing in the potty chair on her own yesterday it is no surprise she’s having sleep disturbances as they really do typically coincide with her major developmental stages & events, like clockwork. Our 2nd car, the current around-town-car has been out of service so the weeks have...
