Happy Easter!

Morning friends. Just welcoming myself back to the blog-o-sphere. I want to sincerely thank everyone for all the thoughtful comments and emails in regards to my mother’s passing. It has been an extremely stressful time and quite frankly, I have been exhausted and over-whelmed. However, my baby’s health is still priority, so I

Hi all! This is a quick guest post by Erin’s friend Amy to keep you all in the loop about Erin’s life, and the reason for her current blog absence.

Erin’s mom, Cathy, had been battling cancer for 10 years. She was such an amazing, resilient woman. Throughout this decade of battle, Cathy has always remained

I was measuring exactly on par with the week I’m in and baby’s little heartbeat sounds like clicking horse feet; strange, but normal. He/she is also kicking like crazy and

But now that we have our

Yesterday I read an article about the shaming of Angelina Jolie for being ‘too thin,” and ‘emaciated.” As a society, we’ve come to know that shaming someone for their large size is publicly unacceptable (although the media doesn’t seem to hold back), but what about those who are on the thinner side? Is “skinny shaming”

This past weekend was my dearest friend Amy’s baby shower. Isn’t she radiant? I’ve said this before but it’s SO fun being pregnant together and sharing this experience! ( I want our babies to be best friends, even though she lives 3 hours away ). Anyway, it was a gorgeous shower and she received some
