Latest Happenings

My 26 week picture. Still feeling alright. My biggest challenge lately is eating. Normally I can fit quite a bit of food in my stomach, and I forget that I have limited space now. I’ve gotten better though. I just have to remind myself to stop eating long before I’m full, take the rest home […]

The Second Trimester is Alright

I’ve written about the not so fun parts of pregnancy, but it’s not all bad. Here are some of the things I’ve been enjoying: My eating behaviors are socially acceptable. People expect me to be hungry and stuffing my face all the time now. In fact, I’ll often get food shoved in my face. It’s […]

Buying Things

So registering for baby stuff is hard. They need so many things! So many! I’ve been researching cloth diapers for months now and I still feel completely clueless. I think I’m going with these prefolds and these covers. If anyone has any product recommendations, they’re more than welcome to share. My 22 week picture and […]

Pregnancy is Weird

Warning, TMI ahead! I did a lot of research on getting pregnant, really a lot. I am now an expert on my cycle and ovulation. I didn’t want to read too much about pregnancy before hand, mostly because there’s a lot about pregnancy I still don’t want to know, but I’ve still researched a bit […]

Disney World 2014

We went to Disney March 1-9, but I waited to publish this post for a good reason. This was our last adult only trip to Disney. Yup, our future Disney fan is coming in September! I’m pregnant!

Welcome to the World Lyra!

As you may know, Chris and Rae, my brother and sister-in-law, we’re expecting a little girl in May. Well, the universe had other plans and she was born Monday instead. She’s small and she’ll have to stay at the hospital a while, but she’s healthy and adorable
