I was really excited but nervous to plan Vivienne’s first birthday.  My full time job was on high demand for a while which is fine but that meant other things needed to be put on hold.  I had just photographed a big event for One Mission.  I was excited to plan her birthday party but […]

I can’t believe my baby is 12 months old.  Where did the time go??  Before I dive into the updates, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for reading her monthly blog posts.  I’ve gotten a lot of feedback and everyone loves reading her updates.  I don’t know what I’ll be doing after […]

We are getting closer and closer to Vivienne walking in her eleventh month.  She has been standing in her crib and pack n play.  She’s also standing up and letting go for decent time periods.  When she realizes she’s doing it, she chickens out and sits.  She holds our hands and walks.  She did take […]

Since Vivienne started crawling she wants to climb and stand up all on her own in her tenth month.  She has even let go.  Once she started really moving, there’s no stopping her.  She is a daredevil.  She already has had some bumps and bruises.  This is just the start! Vivienne says hi!  She knows […]

From April 22-28, 2018 it is National Infertility Awareness Week.  It’s about raising awareness about the disease that affects 1 in 8 couples.  This week in particular we are trying to shed the stigmas and help increase knowledge to those who suffer, we want YOU to feel supported and know that you are not alone!  […]

Well, the day has finally come and I’ve turned 34 years old today!  I’ve officially hit the mid-30’s.  SAY WHAT!!!  As I reflect on my 33rd year, it’s been the highlight of my life.  LOTS of change over the past year.  All good stuff!  The best part is Vivienne is here to celebrate too! Below […]

While I was out on maternity leave, I came across Emily Ley’s “The Story of You” baby book.  Emily Ley has an amazing planner that I have used over the past four years.  I love her planner and her products!  I was on the hunt to find the best baby book for me.  I didn’t purchase […]

Its official, the biggest milestone yet in her ninth month, Vivienne is CRAWLING!  Yup!  We are screwed and still trying to baby proof the house which I know will never be perfect.  It is what it is.  It’s so much fun seeing her move around.  She was slow at first and then all of a […]

If I had to describe Vivienne’s eighth month in one word, I would say mobile.  She is on the move!!!  She has been pushing herself backwards and almost/is crawling.  Sean says no but I say yes,  we have a crawler.  So I’m sure next month I will share that she’s all over the place.  She […]

I’m just going to say it: being a working mom is the hardest job ever.  This post has been a long time coming.  I’m going to be COMPLETELY open and honest!  Shit’s about to get real (sorry if that is offensive but I’m being honest).  I will discuss all of the things new moms are […]
