Getting ready for baby and my “maternity leave” plan

By Jessica On May 29, 2014 · 8 Comments · In baby, pregnancy
We are already 38 and a half weeks along with this little babe! Time has gone so fast this time around. It’s very surreal that technically I could go into labor anytime now. With the exception of a carpet snafu (measurement gone wrong by the pros) with our basement (ordered it from Lowes a month [...]

Sleep. Embracing this season of our lives.

By Jessica On February 7, 2014 · 21 Comments · In baby, Parenting, Personal, pregnancy, Toddler
This is a hard post to publish. I feel like there is a risk here that some of my opinions about sleep may be taken wrong or people won’t agree or won’t like what I have to say. My intention is not to offend, but to share. This is simply my experience and I want [...]

Our new little one appears to be a healthy baby based on all that can be checked on an ultrasound. Even with our second child, ultrasounds, seeing your baby move around, their tiny bones and little heart beating still takes my breath away.

Warm-weather vacation: Maternity style

By Jessica On January 13, 2014 · 1 Comment · In fashion, pregnancy, Travel
Pulling together comfortable, fashionable maternity clothes for a trip to Sri Lanka (an island country south of India with a lovely tropical climate) was not easy. I was pregnant in the winter with Bodhi so owned almost nothing. Luckily, combining borrowed items from two friends, a few of my own non-maternity items and a couple [...]

Baby animal nursery art plus a giveaway

By Jessica On December 12, 2013 · 4 Comments · In baby, Giveaway, Photography, pregnancy
I am enjoying planning our nursery for baby #2. I love that I know so much about what matters in a nursery this time around. If this baby is anything like Bodhi, he/she will be an animal lover. Bodhi is seriously obsessed with animals-all of them. His current favorites are bison, buffalo and panthers, but [...]
