When you're bringing a little human into the world, there's a lot to be nervous about. From praying he is healthy, to hoping that you won't cause him years of therapy, and everything in-between, it can get pretty overwhelming. But the one thing I know for sure, and am eternally grateful for, is that he is already so loved. My mom, sister, and aunts went above-and-beyond to throw the most adorable baby shower for the little man. Friends and family braved almost 90 degree heat and politely ...
A look at life, as told through a sweaty blogger's point of view.
Baby Watch: Maternity Photos
Boy meets girl (in third grade). Girl becomes smitten with boy (in college). Boy and girl fall in love, move to California, and get married. Girl and boy spend years gallivanting around, focused on their careers, life, and everything but starting a family. Boy and girl overanalyze and over-plan everything (per usual) and decide that it’s finally time. Then all of a sudden, we are here. 30 weeks in, taking maternity photos, and looking forward to meeting what we affectionately ...
Baby Watch: The Second Trimester
And just like that, the second trimester is over. A tiny little human has been growing inside of me for 27 weeks and something strange happened along the way: I found out that I kind of love being pregnant. Who is this person?! I don’t recognize her. It’s true, I never thought that I’d be someone who has enjoyed being pregnant so much and I realize this is in large part due to the fact that we’ve had a fairly smooth pregnancy so far (**knocks vigorously on wood**). But for the first time ...
The TS&TS Edit: Maternity Wardrobe Staples
Hey girl…I get it. Those pants just won’t button, the zipper won’t stay up, and even if you did manage to stuff your growing belly into those leggings, you’re pretty sure it’s cutting off all circulation and your head will likely fall of due to lack of blood flow. And we haven’t even talked about the cups that now overfloweth. But I come bearing good news: there are actually quality maternity clothes out there and you can build a mini “maternity capsule closet” with just the ...
Running While Pregnant & The Dublin Shamrock 5K
As I roll into week 24 of growing a tiny human, I feel myself swinging between emotional extremes. On one hand, I still have 16 weeks left. That’s around four months, or 112 days, or 2,688 hours, or 161,280 minutes, or a ridiculous amount of seconds that I’m too lazy to do the math for. I have plenty of time to grow and change. But on the other hand, July 13th is going to be here before I finally pull the trigger on what rug to buy for the nursery and I’ll be left having to pay for ...
