Bean and the Stalk

Hello from 26 weeks + 6 days! I can not believe that in one week I will be entering my third trimester. It's funny because when I follow celebrity pregnancies, they feel like they last eternity (do you know how agonizing the wait to see Kylie Jenner's baby was?) but I swear my own pregnancy has flown by. The first trimester I felt pretty nauseous and sick, but around 15 weeks I started to feel more like myself. Unfortunately my anemia has worsened with pregnancy and has me very tired and a bit ...

I'm writing this after our 10 day vacation in sunny South Florida! We got back a couple of days ago after spending almost two weeks down south relaxing by the pool, hanging with family and friends, and celebrating our baby boy. Since the holidays are coming up and I won't be able to travel after, we had an earlier than normal baby shower at Sundy House in Delray, Florida. And it was one of the most special days we've ever experienced! My mom and Heidy, with the help of some of my friends, ... View Post

I've been meaning to write this post for awhile now, and over the years of blogging, I've read so many pregnancy updates from other women, so I'm excited to write my own!

Confession time: I am obsessed with keeping my teeth clean. Ever since I was a kid, I was always on top of my game when it came to taking care of my dental hygiene. In college I was the girl that would come home drunk from the bar at 3AM and no matter how tired I was or how much tequila I had, I always flossed and brushed my teeth. As my dentist says (which yes, I proudly repeat often because I'm a loser), I'm a "a 30-year-old unicorn" because I've never had a cavity. Knock on wood! But I ... View Post

This is probably one the biggest secrets I've ever kept! My husband and I are thrilled to announce that we are expecting a baby boy due February 15th! It's been a crazy past few months keeping this surprise a secret, especially since it's been such an exciting time for us. I'm currently 15 weeks (almost 16 weeks) and I'm SO ready to not have to "pretend drink." We found out we were pregnant when I was only 4 weeks along. I had a feeling in the back of my mind that I was pregnant but ... View Post
