The first 8 weeks!
I have a confession: I'm not proud of it, but before I had Jackson I judged moms on their mothering. NOT. ANY. MORE. This post isn't about how amazing Jackson is (but he is AMAZING) OR how wonderful motherhood is (it IS wonderful) because everyone already knows all of that. That's why pregnancies are so … Continue reading The first 8 weeks!

Baby Newell
So my mom (and a few other people) pointed out that my pregnancy reveal included absolutely NO details. So...details!

Another Side of Infertility
I feel more vulnerable sharing this post with you than any other post I've shared in the past. I've been wanting to do it for a few months now, but I've been nervous and scared about what you all might think. You may think I'm crazy (sometimes I think I'm crazy). You may pity me.
