23 & 24 week update

Our little girl is a whopping pound and a half…or close to it these days! I can’t believe she’s getting so big. We still have a ways to go though! People are starting to notice my bump more, so that is fun! I’ve been able to tell for a very long time, but it’s finally […]

You look fabulous in that dress! So pretty! I have to say, its quite the win if you don’t have to get out of bed throughout the night, if you’re drinking 1-2 glasses of water beforehand. Quite impressive. 😉

Thanks Em! The front angle is much better than the side! Ha! 🙂 I know! I’m living it up while I can.

Lovely picture I love your dress! I didn’t have stretch marks at all when I was pregnant and then after I gave birth I was like” ” where’d these come from??” I wish I would have out something on my skin while pregnant!

21 & 22 week update

Sorry for the strange coloring in this photo. I need to find a better room in our new house for these photos! Speaking of the new house, we are all moved and settled in! That’s part of the reason I missed last week. We are so very happy to be in our new home. It […]

20 week update

HALF WAY!!!! I can’t believe we’re over half way to meeting our little miss. It still doesn’t seem real that it won’t be just the two of us pretty soon. I know the next four months are going to fly by so quickly! We’ve got lots to do before we’re ready for her entrance into […]

Hey!

I hear coconut oil is good for sore, dry, cracked areas during mom times.

I also hear that sleeping on your left side is optimal and I learned that babies only move clockwise! I didn’t know that. Trasity (New) Shores is pregnant with her third and she’s using a doula this time. I learned so much from her in just 5 minutes! Crazy stuff.

19 week update

It seems surreal that we are a 3 days shy of being half way to meeting our little miss! We had our big half-way ultrasound on Monday and I was shocked to see how much she’s grown in less than 4 weeks. It seemed like she doubled in size, and apparently she’ll double in size again in the […]

18 week update

How big is baby: The size of a sweet potato | 18 Weeks 5 days How I’m feeling: It’s been another great week. We traveled with some of our youth to a conference and didn’t get a whole lot of sleep over the weekend. That made me a little more tired than usual, but that’s not much to […]

“DETROIT IS A MACHINE ( An epilogue to Detroit (While I Was Away) and a poem of munrniog for Blair, Mary Herbeck, and 5’58 Premiyum)” Why do I lament you friend?Maybe I hardly even knew youThough now your all too familiarLike the last meal I had at Tom’s Coney IslandShades of a discarded cut-rate styrofoam meal trayLeft crumpled on a curbUnsettling de9je0 vuThe bus teeters down Schoolcraft rolling over itAnd the wind carries it awayWe were drivenDriven by moreOur routes took usOn separate pathsYou to 9 mile ,I to MackNow and then we’d cross each other meeting backAcquainting each other with old factsIt was summer one hot summerThere you sat at the David Adamany library.I wondered how you could even breatheYou seem so exhausted from this rock’s heatAs sweat beads slid down my browLittle did I know that was the last time I’d see you.A premonition of the end by peradventureThough life carried on I watched you seamlessly succeed at constructing the Manoogian Mansion of your own designA fountainhead risen from the ash heaps of the motor citylike Guyton, like Ross, like Coleman, Ryder, McCoy, Fredericks, Washington ,Lindbergh and Bonds all manufactured from an assembly line of dreamsDetroit built usDetroit is a machine.by Harlan Lovestone
