Hi friends!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years 2025! Hope you are having a wonderful start to your New Year. It’s been a busy couple weeks for us with the holidays, being pregnant, and my husband being gone for weeks at a time as a Captain for his job. But I wanted to share our yearly Christmas card photos and share our message for the New Year. We have so much to be thankful for including finishing and moving into our new home.

Hey friends!

Surprise! We are expecting baby number four! I can’t believe it. Especially since we will have three under three! We are going to have our hands full. We have been keeping this secret all summer long. I found out I was pregnant early June right after moving. It was an unexpected surprise especially with everything going on, having a previous miscarriage in January, and emergency gallbladder surgery in April.

Hi friends,

Hope you are having a great week! It’s been a very exhausting and stressful week preparing for baby’s arrival. I’ve been in and out of doctors every day this week from getting my iron infusions to steroid shots to help with baby’s delivery. It’s nothing like I had planned this delivery to be but at this point I just want a safe delivery and a healthy baby. So to get my mind off of things I’m sharing my last and final bump friendly pregnancy outfit for yall.

Hi friends,

I officially turned 35 this week! I spent this past weekend celebrating with family and enjoying a little staycation at the Grand Galvez.  It’s been recently renovated and it is absolutely stunning! We loved our stay there. This year is the second birthday in a row I’ve been pregnant. It’s crazy to think I will be thirty five with two under two. I like to say I am in my Rihanna era because Rihanna is also thirty five, with both our previous babies born in May, and a second one on the way.

Hi friends,

Jumping on the color block trend this spring with this bump friendly, chic, cut out, $15 Color Block Maxi dress. I’ve definitely been more on the budget friendly fast fashion side of things lately with this pregnancy, because I don’t want to invest in anything that I won’t be able to wear for long. I use to never shop at these online stores, but lately I have been finding some great fashion finds for less.
