Because I am pregnant...


  • I cry over anything and usually will every single day, sometimes over the dumbest things like a commercial. 

  • I am paying much more attention to a political race than I ever have before.

  • I am also paying much more attention to things that I know will affect my child someday.

  • I see the value in spending hours of research on a product for our little guy that I haven't even met yet.

  • I am obsessed with boy names.

  • I am constantly trying to dig up old childhood songs from my memory bank and sing them aloud at will.

  • I touch and rub my belly and smile.

  • I smile and nod at other pregnant women and revel in this kinship I have with these complete strangers.

  • Tyler and I love talking about deep issues and conversations that we'll have with our little guy in the future... or even silly things, such as if our kids will trick-or-treat or not. 

  • If it's even possible, I think I love my husband a little bit more.

  • I am trying to strengthen my relationship with others.

  • I am finally becoming aware of all of my gifts and am gathering them up to share with him.

  • I forget a lot, and have 'slippery' hands (constantly dropping things)

  • I pee A LOT.

  • I am thankful that God has His hands over Tyler and I and our boy.

  • I am still married to control, but am having an affair with flexibility…and plan to leave control for flexibility one day.

  • I am striving to be a better person.


And just for kicks and giggles (and because it's been a while...) here's a new belly pic for you.



23 weeks.

I'll be back soon...

Life is a whirlwind right now, and I haven't had time to sit and process everything, but I vow to do this soon.  I have tons of things to share with you, including lots of baby pics, new decor items around my house (including my fabulous stripes in my kitchen!), and some other randomness. Don't give up on me yet, my friends... I'll be back soon.

8 things.

8 things that make me happy, in no particular order.

8.  Fall weather, and all that entails.  (To name a few: high school football, pumpkin flavored everything, cold weather, sweatshirts, blankets and fireplaces)
7.  Campfires.
6.  Spending quality time with friends and family.
5.  Feeling my baby boy kick me.
4.  Being active... spending time outside, walking, and working out.
3.  Weekends and relaxation.
2.  Starbucks.
1.  A sense of security.

What about you?
