The baby's official due date is August 25th, 2017! I found out that I was pregnant a little over a week before Christmas, talk about the best Christmas present ever! I am twelve weeks along now and finally feeling more like myself. This has been BY FAR my hardest pregnancy so far. I was sick for weeks, constantly nauseous and so so much vomiting (yuck tmi, sorry). I'm still a little tired and I have pretty low energy at times, but I'm no longer sick!
We do not yet know the baby's gender, but will find out in a few weeks. Eric and I are both leaning towards it being a boy since this pregnancy has been so different than my pregnancies with the girls, but who knows! We're just so excited for a healthy baby!

Celebrating this new life while mourning the very sudden loss of my wonderful mother in law, Carrie, has been really confusing. We feel so lucky that we were able to tell her that we were pregnant and experience her joy before she passed away. She was seriously the BEST grandma ever. She lived for her sons and grandbabies, so it's hard imagining bringing this sweet baby into the world without her. But, we're so thankful for this little light in such a dark time. All of our children will always be reminded of how fiercely their "Gramma"(what Sloan called her) or "Gaga" (what P called her) loved them.
I am excited to document and share this pregnancy through my blog. As always, thank you for following along! If you have any questions at all, let me know! I'll do a little Q and A at some point :).

My very sweet and talented friend Lindsey of Lindsey Wiatt Photography took these photos! Definitely check her out if you're in the Portland, OR area.
So adorable! I'm still having trouble deciding if I want a second one. I know I will love them as much as my first, but I'm experiencing mom guilt of thinking about her not being an only child anymore and dividing my attention. She's currently a little over 2 and is such a momma's girl.
ReplyDeleteOh, and where did you get your outfit? It's so pretty!
Deciding to have the second it WAY harder than deciding to have a third. You just can't even imagine loving more than one baby! I so get it! And it's old from Asos :)
DeleteCongratulations!! I started following you while I was pregnant with my second but first girl, shes 8 months now. My mother-in-law passed while I was pregnant and it's hard not being able to share the baby with her. She had five boys herself but my daughter is her 5th granddaughter. She knew we were having a girl and was so happy. It's still very hard for my husband sometimes that he didn't get to share our daughter with his mother but feel like the baby was a little blessing for the family after a rough year. <3
ReplyDeleteThat's so hard!! I just cannot imagine welcoming this baby without my mother in law :(. But I know she'll always be with us.
DeleteBeautiful photos! Congratulations on the new blessing!
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much!!
DeleteCongratulations!! You probably don't remember me but we were on dance team together in high school. I found your shop on instagram when I was pregnant with my first a couple years ago. We ended up having a boy so never could buy a bracelet. My favorite is to shop small. We are pregnant with our second and I'm due mid July. Such exciting news, but I'm so sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteOf course I remember you!! Let's just pretend we're the same age so that I don't feel old and forget I'm quickly approaching 30 ;). Thank you so much :).
DeleteAre you kidding me with these photos?! The CUTEST ever! Love them and so excited to follow along with another Baby Brown! xo
