May 2021 Recap -- baby stuff, lots of weddings, and podcast breaks

Whew! Another month down? Wow, things are flying by. I can’t believe that in 3 short months we will have a newborn. There’s so much to do and so little time. My wedding schedule during the month of May consumed me and felt like it took up all of my time (which weddings typically do). There’s the planning for a wedding, prepping for the big day, working all day on my feet, being exhausted the following day, and then spending the next day catching up before I have to do it all over again. If I were to describe my May that’s what I would tell you it felt like—exhausting.

We're having a boy! | Gender Reveal

Earlier this month we hosted a small get together with family and a few friends at my parents house for a gender reveal party. The plan was to have everyone over for a late lunch/dinner and share the sex of our baby. We chose to do the reveal kind of like we were high school recruits picking a college team. We placed a pink and a blue hat in front of each of us, then after opening the envelope and having our moment together, we then turned to our family and waved our hands over the hats before picking the color that corresponded to the stereotypical blue boy or pink girl. While Trevor and I were ecstatic to know the sex of our baby, we also were just really happy to know that our little one was doing well and appeared happy and healthy.

Pregnancy Update | half way done

Pregnancy Update | half way done

I can’t believe that my pregnancy is already over half way through. When I think about baby coming in September I feel like we are forever away, but then when I look at the fact that I am currently (at the time of writing this) 23 weeks pregnant I can’t help but have a mini heart attack and feel super unprepared. That being said, my pregnancy has been wonderful so far, so I can’t complain… but gosh do I wish it would just slow down for a moment.

April 2021 Recap -- branding, weddings, surgery, and more

These months are flying by. I have been fortunate to be very busy during this season of life, but that also means I’m feeling a bit of overwhelm as well. As I keep busy with so many business related things, I find that I am actually doing pretty well with personal related things too. The only item in my life that someone may consider to be falling on the wayside is keeping a tidy home (but I have my whole life for that, right? haha).

March 2021 Recap -- pregnancy, podcasts, and more

Wowwee, March was a heck of a month for us. I didn’t realize how crazy it was until I was sitting down to draft together this blog post and share all of the things that we posted and did in the last month. It’s been a wild one for sure. Some of the big hits were us announcing our pregnancy (obviously), launching a podcast, and diving more into sharing our entire journey online.

Annapolis, Maryland | November 9, 2020

November 9, 2020 I visited Maryland. I haven’t blogged about it for so long because, well, things just get in the way. But here we are—better late than never. I was actually in Annapolis, MD, to visit my sister who lives there. She wanted some holiday pictures to use for cards at the time, and I was happy to take a “work trip” and oblige.

I'm Pregnant!!

I'm Pregnant!!

So, in case you missed it, I’m pregnant!! My husband and I announced to the world this past Monday that we are expecting a little one this coming September. We’ve known since the beginning on January, but have been keeping my little bump a secret until now. It’s so refreshing to finally be able to tell all of you and feel your love and support. We’ve been creating videos as a form of memory keeping, and have been recording everything along the way.
