So I’ve sat in front of the computer too many times wanting to publish Maximiliano’s birth story but it hurts me so bad that his birth didn’t go as planned. With Eli, I never had a birth plan. All I wanted to do when he was born, do skin to skin, and soak up every […]

Since it’s been getting warmer, we’ve had to move nap time to the formal living room during the hottest time of the day. We started using HALO DreamNest. It is a 3 in 1 system. Key Features: Breathable Mesh Mattress; This allows easy airflow to keep Max cool and comfortable. I like to call Max […]

I nursed Max before our mini photo session so he would be happy during the shoot… well it backfired. As soon as I set him down, he started dozing and passed out. Last time I checked in, he was using Halo SleepSack Self-Soothing Swaddle. He was in the process of learning how to roll over. Since […]

You would think with child # 2, you would have everything down. NOPE. Max is soooo much different than Eli. Max takes a bottle and pacifier. Eli didn’t. Max can be rocked to sleep. Eli had to nurse to sleep. Max breaks out of his swaddles. Eli didn’t. Let’s talk about sleep. Max hit the […]

HOLY. MOLY. I am 38 weeks and 6 days pregnant. Everyone around me didn’t think I would make it this far because Eli was born 38 weeks and 4 days. Heck.. Everyone swore I would give birth right after our Disneyland trip but NOPE. I haven’t had any contractions yet. Just the usual braxton hicks. […]

Traveling 36 weeks pregnant!? SAY WHATTTTTT!?!? Yep. This trip had been planned for months. Farmers Insurance has these achievement clubs each year and we’ve been fortunate  to travel to Boston, Las Vegas, Seattle, Calgary, Savannah, Keystone, San Fransisco, Chicago, and San Antonio. When I say fortunate, I really mean, my husband is this AMAZING HARD […]

32 weeks pregnant and planning a birthday party is NO FUN. This is why I chose Peter Piper Pizza. I didn’t have to worry about making food. I didn’t have to worry about entertaining the children. I didn’t have to worry about the clean up. Eliseo is OBSESSED with Pixar Car’s. He loves Lightning McQueen, […]
