Recently, we made a quick trip from Seattle to Washington, DC. With just three days to take on the town, we found ourselves gallivanting from The National Mall to Arlington, VA, cramming in as much as possible. This is our second trip with Avery on hand, so it was challenging to mark everything off our [...]
Avery’s first baseball game was during Seattle Mariners Sriracha Night!!! The most exciting part of the evening was when Mariners catcher Mike Zunino hit a walk-off two-run home run and led Seattle to a 6-5 come-from-behind victory over Minnesota Twins at Safeco Field!!
A little over a month after giving birth, I went in for my routine MRI/CT scan. As you can tell from the title, my scan was great!! So now instead of going every 4 months like I was doing before I got pregnant, I am now schedule to go every 6 months. Thank you to [...]
Minted has done it again! We went to JCPenny Portraits while Avery was only 2 weeks old to get photos done for his birth announcement. I absolutely love how they turned out!
When I discovered the BabyPics app, I completely got really excited about capturing my growing belly bump! It’s a great and easy photo-journaling tool to document your growing baby belly “bumpies” week after week. I’ve started when I was in week 16 and probably around week 28 is when you can start seeing some major [...]
I went in for my weekly OB appointment on March 31st and when they checked my blood pressure - it was high! So high that it was best that I head on over to Labor and Deliver! They were going to induce me since technically I was already full term. I was not ready for [...]

When I first found out I was having surgery, one thought that came to mind was ‘I wonder how big the scar will be?'. I assumed it would be this ittybitty incision, and that it would be easy to cover up but boy was I wrong. I woke up to find my entire stomach covered [...]
Now that the gifts have been opened, the food eaten, the games played and the mommy stories shared. The much-anticipated baby shower is over and now it’s time for the final step: Sending out thank you notes! I want to adequately thank my generous friends and family for helping celebrate this special milestone with me. [...]
I am so thrilled to be able to share photos from the most beautiful baby shower I have ever been to and even more excited because it was MINE! Ha, I still can’t believe it!!! I have to say, I've never had a party planned in my honor where I didn’t plan it myself or [...]

Hello, Third Trimester!!! 3 more months to go! I’m ‘sorta kinda’ showing…if I wear really tight clothing, otherwise according to people I don’t even look pregnant….let alone be ‘only 28 weeks’ pregnant. I had an OBGYN visit today as well as the big glucose test (which I passed..YAY!). We got to hear the baby's heartbeat [...]
