  • Baby Eli is 1 month old!!! I can hardly believe it! He’s eating like a champ and starting to put on a little chub! We have some fussy days, but for the most part he is a pretty mellow little bear. The past few nights he has slept for 4 hour stretches πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ™ŒπŸ» Getting out of the house is quite a process and just about every time, without fail, he poops once he is strapped in his car seat and ready to go πŸ˜‚ but I wouldn’t have it any other way! I am just so glad he is here! πŸ’™ And of course I had to document the peach fuzz on his shoulders that I just love so much πŸ˜‚ I don’t want to forget a single little detail!

  • 4 years ago we officially became Texans! We sure miss our family and friends but boy do we love it here. We have made such incredible friendships and have had the most fun filled 4 years and still have so much to check off of our Texas bucket list. Seriously can y’all just move here and we can just live our best lives floating the river and eating the best tacos and bbq?! I never would have thought I’d love it here as much as I do but Texas has seriously stolen our hearts. And I love being able to say our baby boy was made in Texas πŸ˜†πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ’™

  • On our last day in the hospital I saw the video of George Floyd. I sobbed. It really shook me. Rightfully so. When I took the postpartum depression questionare at discharge and scored a 10, advising me to contact my doctor immediately, I was honestly surprised, but I quickly realized I have to be careful where I spend my attention and energy right now. I have been considering the things I post to social media. As much as I wish I could, I can’t change what goes on outside the walls of my home. I don’t believe what I choose to post or not post really will do anything to effect real, genuine change in the world. The issues of the world are far bigger than anything posted to social media. Our actions offline are the key. All I can do is be a good neighbor, friend, sister, wife, mother. I can and will stand up for injustice when I see it, and teach my son to do the same. I pray for those in pain to be comforted. I pray those who deserve justice are given it. Prayer has power. Eli is proof of that. I know better days are ahead. Above all of this, please put your mental health first and hold to hope πŸ’™

  • Can’t believe little bear is already over a week old! I guess time really flies when you are having fun! We are already starting to fall into a pretty good sleep routine. He let mama get 6 and a half hours of sleep last night! Only broken by one feeding at 5 am πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ» We survived our first visit to the pediatrician on Tuesday. Our family doctor is seriously the nicest person, it is such a blessing we found him and that we all can see him! The dr stayed late just for us so they could ensure we wouldn’t cross paths with any other patients. They were finishing deep cleaning the exam room when we arrived. The dr was trying to test out Eli’s hip joint and Eli was fighting him so hard, he wouldn’t let him test it all. The dr was honestly surprised how strong he was! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ So grateful for this strong, healthy, and feisty little bear πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ’™πŸ’™
