We are less than a month away from meeting baby girl, so I thought it’d be fitting to do a third-trimester update before she gets here! You guys sent some great questions my way, so I tried to answer as many as I could. I also divided the questions up into general and product-related, so be sure to scroll to the very end if you asked a question about a…

We’re halfway through September, which means we’re a month away from meeting baby No. 2! I’m in FULL on prep mode right now — here’s a look at everything I’m doing to prepare for this baby so I feel as confident as possible for delivery and postpartum. One of the things at the top of my list was finding a good diaper bag. Now that I’ve got two kids under…

I am officially 35 weeks with baby girl! This is such an exciting milestone because I’m now past the point where I went into labor with Four. A part of me has just sort of expected that I’ll go into labor early with baby No. 2 also, but my doctor told me there’s a good chance I’ll go the full 40 weeks (there’s no correlation with how early you went…

Ever since I was in the hospital with Four, I knew I wanted to bring something special to give to the Labor & Delivery and Postpartum nurses the next time I was delivering a baby. For those of you who don’t know, I gave birth to Four 5 weeks early, so to say I was an emotional wreck at the hospital was an understatement. The nurses I had were honestly…

When Four was born, I had no time to prepare. Since he came 5 weeks early and we were in the middle of moving back to Dallas, I hadn’t packed a single thing. When my water broke, we were told to come into the hospital quickly (since I was so early) so I literally only had time to grab a phone charger, my wallet, and my favorite blanket. This time,…

Even though I haven’t bought a ton of maternity clothing this pregnancy, there are a few maternity pieces that I’ve been loving. I try to stick to staples when I shop for maternity clothing and only buy items I know I’ll wear again and again. It’s also super important to me that it be comfortable. Pregnancy is generally uncomfortable, so I try to dress in only the comfiest outfits. Let’s be…

A few months ago, I got the urge to start creating a baby book for Four. This is something I’ve been wanting to do since he was born, but life got in the way and I never got around to it. I printed out a ton of photos to use for Four’s first birthday and it inspired me to organize them and actually work on putting together a baby book…

Last weekend, we got to shower baby girl with some of our favorite people, and it was honestly so special. We wanted something intimate that didn’t feel like a shower, and this gathering was perfect. We had the most amazing selection of food (including a s’mores situation that was to die for) and the decor was super chic and simple — exactly what I’d pick myself. My friends and fam truly…

As I enter into the third trimester next week, I wanted to do a little recap of my second trimester experience for this pregnancy. I almost didn’t do one this time but after asking you all on IG stories if you wanted one, it was certainly a resounding yes that you did! Outfit Details: Maternity Dress (wearing size S)  // Jacket (similar) // Shoes (similar) // Bag // Sunglasses The Quick 411 on…

I’ve mentioned in some recent blog posts how I don’t shop a lot of maternity clothes when I’m pregnant. Typically, I try to stick to non-maternity clothing that will work with a bump. But there are some pieces of clothing, like denim, that I just have to go maternity on. I recently broke down and bought my first pair of maternity shorts and honestly like them WAY more than I thought…
