We made it another week and get to see our babies on Thursday! We are on our way back into Columbia after celebrating the baptism of our cousin's fourth child of whom I'm the Godmother. We are four weeks from our first milestone - 24 weeks. This is when our babies are viable. Viable does… Continue reading 19+6 and Arachnids 🕷

Can you make your accent walls French?
On the agenda recently: daycares vs. nannies and house painting. I've toured one daycare, am touring another next week, and another the second week of October. Two of these have two openings for late April, one does not. The comments are funny - they did ask me if I'd be interested in one spot. I… Continue reading Can you make your accent walls French?
Babies’ First Hurricane
Tomorrow we leave for Myrtle Beach in a vacation planned by my lovely MIL. As luck would have it, the hurricane might be there, as well. Hoping the course changes its trajectory, but I guess we will see. Most people have assured me I won't get stuck and will be on track to be home… Continue reading Babies’ First Hurricane
Today Was a Good Day
I'm gonna see how many references I can make to members of NWA throughout this blog's tenure. After relaxing and reclining for the morning, I met Justin at the doctor at 1:30 PM. We were taken back to the ultrasound room quickly, something for which I was very thankful. It was my first belly ultrasound… Continue reading Today Was a Good Day
Plumble Bees 🐝
12 weeks and 2 days and our babies are the size of plums. We have an appointment on Thursday to see them and I couldn't be happier! It will be our last appointment until 16 weeks, then 20 weeks before more frequent monitoring may begin again. I think Justin and I are finally starting to… Continue reading Plumble Bees 🐝

8 Weeks!
Today, I am 8 weeks pregnant with our little kidney beans. Tomorrow at 10:00 AM, we get to go in for an ultrasound to check on them. If they both have heartbeats are are growing appropriately, the miscarriage risk is significantly diminished. I am crossing every thing I have and praying that we see and… Continue reading 8 Weeks!
Trip Recap
We had yet another delay once arriving in Denver when getting our rental car. Apparently, there were millions of recalls, so we were supposed to sit in a five hour line. Luckily, I was not in lunatic mode any longer and had my bearings about me. I signed up for their loyalty program, told the… Continue reading Trip Recap
Placenta x 2 = Double the Hormones (otherwise known as my first breakdown)
This morning, we woke up before 4:00 AM to depart Columbia at 6:00 to go to Estes Park, by way of Denver to meet my family for a long weekend. The airport in Columbia is tiny, with one security line. They ask you to get there an hour early in order to have time. Today,… Continue reading Placenta x 2 = Double the Hormones (otherwise known as my first breakdown)
Fearfully forging forward….
I've been sort of paralyzed with fear. I google everything I put into my mouth and I'm just so anxious to see our babies on Tuesday. The spotting either has subsided or it was truly due to me sticking the suppositories too far up. If that's the case, I really caused myself a lot of… Continue reading Fearfully forging forward….
