They say you get your energy back in the second trimester. Was that true for you? Yes! I felt totally back to my normal energy levels right around 12 weeks. I’m at exactly 28 weeks now, and I still feel like my energy level is high. It has been hard not being able to exercise….
As the August turned over to September, I couldn’t help but thinking about what a big month August always is for me and Zak. We went on our first date in August six years ago, and we got married in August two years ago. Now, we’ll always have the memory of the time we spent…
Being on modified bed rest has been a big challenge for me because I don’t do well just laying around. Luckily, my doctors are okay with me doing small things like getting up to grab the mail or getting dropped off at the door of a restaurant to sit down somewhere and have a meal….

I worried that because I couldn’t imagine what it would physically be like to be pregnant, it somehow meant I wouldn’t be able to get pregnant. It seems…

Zak and I decided to break in our new camera after dinner on a date night recently. There was some pretty ivy growing on the side of the restaurant, and I can’t resist a good ivy wall. My number one priority for fashion this summer is to stay cool and stay comfortable! Number two priority…
1 – I never got morning sickness! Please don’t hate me. I don’t know how I avoided this. If you know me, you’d know this is a miracle. I am the most nauseous person you’ll ever meet. I can’t go in cars, planes, trains, boats without getting off with some level of nausea. Everyone in…
