He is a very sweet laid back little guy. He has the most adorable little face you can' t help but kiss it. His sleeping habits are a little better now, as if they were bad before...he goes to bed about 10pm-ish and wakes up at 1:30am to eat and then goes back to sleep for a couple more hours. He is still eating about every 3 hours during the day. My growing little man is in 3 month clothing and wearing a size 1 diaper.

Mrs. Allison Templeton send me some lovely little pictures she created on photoshop of the alphabet. I decided to make into a book for Luca :) I can't wait to receive it!!! Click here to view this photo book larger

  Look what I made! It's a shadowbox filled with Luca's hospital stuff including the outfit he wore home, his first hat, the hospital bracelet, and his birth announcement, ambilical cord { I sealed the cord in plastic and put it in the diaper. Not everyone would want to see it, but I wanted to keep it somehow without losing it.  I love how it turned out! I totally jacked this idea from Pinterest {of course}. But I had to add my own twist to this project, and now I think my box is far superior to the ones I saw online {I might be a tad bias though}. SO you wanna know how I did it? Supplies: - Shadow Box - All your baby Items {i.e. outfilt, diapers, bith announcements, scrapbook supplies, scissors, baby bracelets, hats} - Glue gun - 1 yard of fabric {any color that suits your needs} - scrapbooking embelishments First let me just say that this project was super easy. And cheap, too! I waited till I saw a sale at our local craft store {P...

I received and awesome gift the other day from a longtime friend. It is the most unique gift and I was super excited to recieve it! I never knew there were celtic animal signs or tree signs based on when your were born. Which in turn led me to research it a little more and I am going to share the information with you! :) Enjoy! Celtic Animal Birth Signs Most people know their Sun birth sign, but few people know that there even is such a thing as a Celtic animal birth sign. Your Sun sign is also known as your zodiac sign and is based on the path of the sun across the heavens through the constellations that divide the ecliptic into twelve equal zones of celestial longitude. Quite a few people are also familiar with Chinese astrological signs (if only from paper placemats in Chinese restaurants) where months and years pass through a cycle of twelve animals that imply certain fortunes or misfortunes related to events occurring within those periods. I thought the beginning ...

It's been so amazing getting to know this little guy over the past month. He's my little eating, farting, pooping machine! All of these things he does quite frequently and the last 2 are quite comical at times. My little man has acid reflux. REALLY?! Doesn't surprise me really. I had it CONSTANTLY throughout my pregnancy AND Kyle gets it often. I have to give him xantac with 2 feeding a day. It seems to be helping with the spit up & hiccups. Other than that, his hernia is doing REALLY well. Doctor said it is almost healed which is really good and his broken colar bone wasnt even mentioned. BONUS! He started the month eating every 2.5 hrs and has now has m...

I was 30 years old when my boyfriend of 7 years, Kyle, and I found out we were expecting a baby! We were really excited to have a little person that will have a little bit of both of us. I hadn't been experiencing morning sickness,but smells were REALLY bothering me. I wasn't the type to have a "normal" period so we didn't know something was up. After a couple weeks of experiencing the smell sickness I figured, lets try a test...POSITIVE!!! It was a very nerve racking day for us! I had a very normal pregnancy with the occasional aches and pains here and there. Once I reached 39 weeks along, I was absolutely ready to have this little guy. I mean I hadn't gotten huge but very uncomfortable!! I had gained over 30 pounds overall!!  Not many cravings... just the routine need to wake up at 2, 3, and 4 am to use the bathroom. I didn't have many stretch marks, well what weren't there already. The whole time I had been working. Wednesday Aug...

This week has been a little crazy! I lost my mucus plug on Wednedsy around 7:30 am. Boy did that make me nervous. I ran to my mom's (she lives behind me). I was laughing and scared at the same time. Nerves I guess. All the stories I heard, people USUALLY deliver within a couple days. Its now day 4 and NOTHING. Im sure it is soon but, COMMON little guy lol! WE ARE READY! We also had a friend come in and paint the nursery wall. HOLY CRAP was that the BEST descision EVER. I have been friends with Bob for about 17 years, high school days. He started off with "street art" but has since "grown up" to more mature art, abstract art. His work is BEAUTIFUL. I would NEVER change my mind on having him do ANYHTING someone needs an artist for. I CANNOT thank him enough for his work!!! If anyone needs some work done, email him here BOBS EMAIL . HERE ARE THE PICTURES!!!    How far along? 38 weeks, Day 5!!! Total weight gain...

I cried on the way to work. NOT because I am unhappy, that is not the case by any means, BUT because TODAY I am considered FULL TERM!!! ♥ HOLY CRAP! I cannot believe this has gone by so fast! I am going enjoy this huge belly, swollen feet, heartburn after drinking water, high blood pressure, and EVERYTHING else comes along in the next couple weeks because I’m pretty sure we are going to have a HEALTHY & I’m sure pretty HANDSOME little man!!! :) ♥ FULL TERM! My due date is still 3 weeks away so I know that doesn’t mean a lot, but it gives some peace of mind. This little man could be born anytime now with lungs mature enough to likely be just fine. I’ll take the 3 extra weeks though! I’m figuring I’ll get 4 more weeks with this little one. Resources say he weighs around 6.5 lbs and is 19 – 20 inches long.   My ribcage is expanding to make space for all those squished organs. I’m seriously running out of clothes that fit. Even maternity clothes barely fit. Most shirts ar...
