The year of all years is coming to a close. If you told me in 2019 half of what would happen in 2020, I would look at you like you had four heads. A global pandemic? Being stuck inside the majority of the year? Being out of work? And I would be one of the lucky ones to make it out of this year not catching a virus. What a crazy ride it's been. Yet in all the sadness and uncertainty, 2020 has given us one of the greatest gifts of all. Our baby Heath. Part of why I waited so long to ... View Post
Christmas 2020
It's the most wonderful time of the year... a really crazy year. It's hard to believe that the holidays are here. The end of 2019 feels like yesterday and at the same time feels too good to have happened. The carefree life we all lived before this pandemic feels so out of reach, I'm struggling to grasp my mind around it. It's not that this state of the world will ever feel normal, but COVID has impacted so many parts of our lives that going back to the way things were seems unattainable. ... View Post
Hey Heath! Our second baby’s birth story.
He is here! A little over two weeks ago we welcomed our second son into the world, Heath Joseph Rosenberg. I announced my pregnancy not that long ago (here) and also shared the anxiety I felt being pregnant during a pandemic (here). This time around I was much more afraid of labor and delivery, partly because of COVID and partly because I was afraid of leaving Jude and something bad happening. When you experience the love of having a child, you know how much there is to lose. Thankfully ... View Post
PREGNANT IN A PANDEMIC: DEALING WITH ANXIETY, GUILT, AND WHY I WAITED TO ANNOUNCE
I only save the word "hate" for things I completely despise, like Donald Trump, chocolate, and a bad season of Real Housewives (I'm a passionate Bravoholic). So I think "hate" maybe a little strong here BUT... I really, really, really dislike being pregnant. It took a while for me to be comfortable saying that, especially as someone who experienced a miscarriage the first time they got pregnant. My heart breaks for those women who struggle with infertility and I try to be as sensitive as ... View Post
SURPRISE! We’re expecting baby #2!
G and I are thrilled to finally share this news... we're expecting baby #2! To say that 2020 has been a whirlwind is an understatement. And while there is so much craziness going on between the political climate and the pandemic, this little surprise has brought us so much joy amongst the sadness going on in the world. We're due late October, making me 31 weeks along. We announced our pregnancy with Jude when I was around 16 weeks - much earlier than this pregnancy. But being ... View Post
JUDE’S 18 Month Update: Our favorite toys, books, and more
Whoa, it's been a little bit since I've blogged. Between being a mom, trying to manage a job as an event planner during a pandemic, and oh yeah... just dealing with a pandemic, life has gotten pretty crazy. I plan to share a life update very soon, as well as getting back to a regular blogging schedule. I can't believe I'm sharing an 18-month update on Jude! It feels like just yesterday I shared my birthing story and the struggles of being a new mom. Every month I always say is my favorite ... View Post
