Our little Sam Man came into the world the day after spring began and he’s perfection. Life was so hectic and busy throughout the pregnancy that besides for being very sick in the beginning, I didn’t get bogged down by it. As low-key as Sam was in the womb he is outside of it. He … More Samuel Anders
Yes, it’s a fake fruit BUT where would I find a pumpkin in February? The final update and picture, I can’t believe how quickly time has gone by. The first several weeks were miserable but since October it’s really been smooth sailing. I can’t wait to see what this little man looks like and … More Month 9 Round II
It’s butternut squash month and the reality that Sam will be here in two months is becoming more and more real. He’s easy to care for now, I don’t know how I’ll manage when he’s on the outside… How far along? 32 weeks and 6 days Total weight gain/loss: 20lbs+ I’m sure and I just know it’ll … More Month 8 Round II
For the past couple months, I put on my Betsy Ross’ bonnet and pulled out the thread and needle to make custom pillowcases for Lucas and Sam. After many ups and downs the project is finally complete (well almost, I want to add buttons to the back but that could take months or years). Before … More For The Boys
It’s 2019 and that means Sam will be here this year! I can’t wait to meet our little man and am surprised that an eggplant does seem larger than a cantaloupe… How far along? 28 weeks and 6 days Total weight gain/loss: 15lbs at my last appointment but I’m sure it’s closer to 20lbs at this point. Maternity … More Month 7 Round II
Still feeling huge and very curious about how big Sam is. I feel him moving around simultaneous at large distances; additionally, this cantaloupe implies hugeness but he’s barely halfed baked so I’m a little nervous…. Fortunately, I know better than to plan on any newborn clothes, Round 2 win! Here’s month 6: How far along? 24 … More Month 6 Round II
There was a rare warm day not too long ago and we got our family photos taken at a nearby park and I LOVE them! Danny takes such great pictures of other people, it’s nice that we have some good photos of our own. Other things I’m currently up to…. Excited to get organized for the … More Currently
Since I waited to announce, I didn’t publish last month’s bumpdate at the time but I did write it and take pictures. I know Baby #2 often gets the short end so I figure I’ll try starting off on an even level. We’re at the halfway mark and we know he’s a BOY (the cutest … More Month 5 Round II
It’s not that I’m not excited for a new baby but it’s more overwhelming than before. I have more to worry about (how Lucas will adjust, how I’ll manage, not dying in child birth) and less time to devote to being exciting. Plus being pregnant dominates all conversations when people know or at least know … More Month 4 Round II
