"The first few weeks are going to be the WORST. Just remember that it will get better." I remember my friend Heidy telling me this right before I was about to have Jude. The moment I got to hold my son for the first time, I was on a complete high. It was the most beautiful experience I've ever been through and I remember sitting in the hospital recovering and thinking the hardest part was over. When you look down at your newborn, how can it not be smooth sailing from here? And then the ... View Post
Starting Our Fall Family Tradition: Apple Picking
I've talked about this before while I was pregnant, but there are certain traditions I'm so excited to start with Jude (you can read about the holiday traditions I want to start here!) Last year around this time we kicked off the fall season with apple picking at Kuipers Family Farm. I was 20 weeks pregnant with Jude and kept thinking about how much fun it would be next year to have him with us. It's crazy to think back on that day and how it feels like yesterday. My godson Oliver is walking and ... View Post
WHY HAVING IT ALL DOESN’T MEAN DOING IT ALL
As women and moms, how many articles have we come across debating whether or not working moms can "have it all"? It's a question I continued to ask myself when I found out I was pregnant, and something that literally kept me up at night. I love working. I love interacting with coworkers, collaborating on ideas, and contributing my skills towards a larger company goal and mission. Part of me was not looking forward to maternity leave because I didn't want to be away from work. Not ... View Post
TOP 10 NEWBORN ITEMS UNDER $100
When I was engaged, I thought building my wedding registry was one of the most stressful processes. And then I had to build a baby registry. The market is overly saturated with "must-have" baby products claiming to make your life as a parent easier. For me, I found consulting with a couple of close girlfriends to see what worked for them the most helpful - there is no better resource for a new mom than other moms. But since we were between homes when Jude was born and majority of our ... View Post
HONEY, I’M (IN OUR NEW) HOME
As if having a baby wasn't a big enough life change, I'm currently writing this from our new home. I guess 2019 really is about going big for us! Last year around the time I got pregnant, we toyed with the idea of moving. When we bought our condo I was dead set on staying there forever until our next potential move out of the state. I thought we could easily have baby there, entertain, and still have enough room to have people comfortably stay with us. And then I ... View Post
Hey, Jude! Our son’s birth story.
This feels so surreal to write. On January 27th at 11:06AM we welcomed our son Jude Harrison Rosenberg into the world! Originally due February 15th, I had a hunch that I'd deliver before my due date but I never expected him to be so early. After sharing our miscarriage story, announcing our pregnancy, and sharing updates along the way (check my favorite pregnancy products, my 20 week update, and holiday traditions we're planning to start with baby), I can't believe I'm actually sharing his ...
