No Comments12 Weeks
Yesterday Chris and I went to our twelve-week OB appointment, and it was by far my favorite so far. No blood tests or awkwardness this time, AND we got to hear the baby’s heart beat for the first time. It was such a crazy moment. I had a closet fear that we wouldn’t be able...

1 CommentHow Hard I Try
It’s raining again today in Nashville. We enjoyed a glimpse of beautiful weather yesterday, but today, the storm clouds have returned. On days like today (and rainy months like these), it’s easy to let the weather outside affect my day. It’s easy to let the grayness outside to creep in, sending my thoughts on an...

I will admit, we do love the fireplace. It’s our favorite feature of the apartment. I don’t have many photos of the bedrooms because there is...

No CommentsDevotions with Jane Austen
Living in an apartment may be economical, but it is not glamorous. This morning was no exception. At 6:00 am my husband and I were startled awake by a neighbor’s high-pitched, beeping alarm clock. I realize that is not early for most people, but we were both up past midnight last night finishing client projects. The...

No CommentsWeek 11
I am so behind on catching up here, so this is probably not news to you if you follow me on Twitter or if we’re Facebook friends. Chris and I are in our eleventh week of our first pregnancy. After a rocky start, things are starting to smooth out, although we still have rough nights...
