YOUR BABY IS AN AVOCADO

BABY: 16 weeks today! 4 more to go before confirming girl status. Still sick in the early morning and late evening. #goaway Losing weight (not complaining) Currently craving: frozen yogurt with colored sprinkles. CASH: SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT #fornow Witching hours between 1 PM and bedtime. Torture. Sitting up!!!!! Eating all pureed foods. Not picky like his dad. Currently up from his nap and must go. Toodles.

6 MONTHS OF CASH

Behold the cuteness. I MEAN HAVE YOU SEEN ANYTHING CUTER IN YOUR LIFE. Cash just turned SIX months old, and I'm exactly 15 weeks today!! I can't believe it. We go in for a gender ultrasound October 25th, just to extra confirm there's a girl hiding in there.  A lot of peeps have been asking us about names, but we want to 110% make sure it's a girl before we really settle on any.  I will say that we definitely want a boys name for a girl (like mine, duh). And are leaning towards ones that start with C to mesh with Cash.  Any and all suggestions welcome. This past weekend Brett had his 10 year high school reunion and we hosted a pre-party. SPX freeeends I've become really great friends with a lot of his HS friends (and lurv them), but I was so excited to meet some more I've heard such great things about.  Of course I decided to try my dress on about 10 minutes before the party started #typical and of course my bump had decided to go th...

HELLO NORMALCY ARE YOU OUT THERE?

I'm now almost 14 weeks and still have to pop nausea medicine on the reg.  I was so excited for the 1st trimester to be over because then I'd magically feel better, but who am I kidding? I was sick for 5 months with Cash so I shouldn't be surprised. But this time I have MEDICINE. Thank the lawd.  Medicine that really only works on and off throughout the day but it's better than nothin.  Anyways, I'm just really excited for the day I'll be 100%, alert, and not exhausted. Hurry it up. We've had a busy few weeks and even busier weekends coming up.  This weekend I'm going to Austin for our college family reunion.  Just a few highlights of these hooligans: I really am lucky to have these peeps in my life and can't wait to spend a whole weekend with them! Then the next weekend, the 10 year reunions start (WHAT?).  We're hosting the pre-party for Brett's so I need to start thinking of some yummy apps and treats to have.  I'm thin...

MATERNITY STYLE GUEST POST: LORI

I'm so excited to have my love, Lori, contribute a guest post today.  Brett and I have a lot of events coming up and with my growing bump I sought some much needed fashion advice from her.  I keep telling her to start her own blog so maybe this is the push she needs! First of all, CONGRATULATIONS RYANN AND BRETT!  I am so happy for you guys and cannot wait for that little baby girl!!!  Her first leopard print (anything) will be from me...I will have to start researching leopard baby shoes ASAP. Since Ryann has gone and gotten pregnant again, she has come to me for advice for some cute clothes, specifically special occasion outfits in her pregnant state (THAT AREN'T UGLY MATERNITY CLOTHES).  There were many rules, so I am trying to follow as best as possible!  I know she is a big fan of printed dresses, but they must NOT be sleeveless and they must not be too short (baby mamas don't need to all be lookin' like Brit Brit).  Therefore, I have search...

THE DIARY OF THE NEVER ENDING PREGNANT LADY

You think you know but you have no idea. #seewhatIdidthere No but really. That's what I feel like. A never ending pregnant lady. It was just a mere SIX MONTHS ago that I was complaining about feeling like I'll never be un-pregnant.  And here I am 3 months preggo.  Just call me Jessica Simpson. First let's get this out of the way. We were not trying.  I was on medicine. Brett was in San Antonio.  You get the point. I think the chances were like .0000001.  But all that aside, I can't imagine life without Cash. So this baby is just as big of a blessing.  And we are actually really really excited and happy they will be so close in age (but yes it will be hard).  As one of my friends said, "God really wanted y'all to have a girl!." Yes, a GIRL.  I still can't believe it.  I was 100% convinced that we were going to have another boy and even had the name picked out already.  We did a gender blood test that is supposed to be 99% accurate, so...
