I will probably say this with every baby update, but I cannot believe our Hadleigh girl is already 6 months old. Well, technically now she is 6.5 months old (insert crying emoji). A lot has changed since her last update. I’m going to share everything about her sleep, eating, play, size and whatever else I […]
Guys. The struggle is very real right now. Our beautiful, lovely, almost 6 month old daughter has been going through a “sleep regression”. A sleep regression is defined as a period of time when a baby wakes more throughout the night, is harder to settle and can skip or take shorter naps (https://www.babycentre.co.uk). The reasoning […]
My nursing journey technically started in 2010 when I first began college. I originally declared my major as pre-nursing. This meant that I would have to complete two years of pre-requisites in order to apply to nursing school. Being the indecisive teenager I was, I ended up switching my major to exercise science. I wasn’t […]
When I learned about hurricane Florence coming for the Outer Banks right when we were supposed to leave for vacation, I was devastated. My family goes to Cape Hatteras, North Carolina every year since my mom, aunt and uncle were kids. Last year we were unable to go because I had just started my new […]
Guys, I seriously cannot handle how fast Hadleigh is growing. Every single day she learns something new. The first couple of months of her life I feel like I was trying to rush her growth, but now that I’m starting to see her change so quickly, I want it to stop! I know she’s only […]
Hello everyone! Hope y’all had a fun and safe Labor Day weekend. It was blistering hot here in Tennessee. For some reason we thought it would be a good idea to go to the Knoxville Zoo at 1:30 pm… in the prime heat of the day. Regardless of the tremendous amount of sweat dripping off […]
So it’s been quite a while since I last blogged, and it has been long overdue. Between figuring out this mom thing and going back to work, it has been hard to take time doing what I enjoy, including writing. I wrote this when I was about 6 weeks postpartum and kind of forgot about […]
Well ya’ll, I’ve officially made it. Baby Hadleigh is now considered “early-term”, which means if she were born today, she would most likely be in perfect health! It is so crazy to think that in 3 weeks (give or take) I am going to have a little human in my arms…that I have to keep […]
Happy Good Friday! This Sunday it will be a year since I became a Catholic, and I have spent a lot of today reflecting on this past year and how it has changed me and how much still needs to change. For those who don’t know, I was raised Methodist, which is pretty similar to […]
Today I am officially halfway-ish through my third trimester! It is crazy how fast these last few weeks have flown by. I feel like as soon as I hit 30 weeks, time has just been racing! It’s funny because during my first and second tri’s I was like “okay, lets just stay pregnant forever and […]
