Giving Birth, Postpartum, & Now
Giving birth- most moms will tell you giving birth is the easy part and as much as you tell that to someone who is pregnant with their first, they won’t believe you! And boy, they were right. Postpartum was rough for me after an unplanned c section so I had no idea what recovery would look like and it was my first time ever in the OR.
How I Met My Husband x JCPenney
My husband and I just celebrated our 6 year anniversary! We got married January 19, 2013 and although we are not the perfect couple, we continue to say yes to our marriage. We met in college while there was no Instagram and AIM still existed along with killing time on Yahoo Games.

38 Weeks Maternity Shoot
I'm currently at 38 weeks, so close! It's kind of perfect timing for Mother's Day to join all the mamas out there. I'm feeling all sorts of emotions from being excited to anxious, scared to smiling, and of course just nervous about the whole day when it all comes.
