Little man is 3 months old! 💙 Some days I have to pinch myself because I can’t believe my dream of being a momma has come true. I LOVE being this boy’s mommy and spending every day with him. It feels like each day he’s growing in some way and doing something new and it’s so fun to be along for the ride ☺️ Recently, he has been talking up a STORM and interacting with Luke and I a bunch more. He has “conversations” with us where we talk back and forth and it’s so stinkin cute. Every day has it’s tough moments and it’s sweet moments. Being a mom is honestly so much harder than I thought it would be in so many ways but also so so sweet and 1000% worth it. 💙 Thank you Lord for this gift!

Noah is 12 weeks old and officially in his last week of being considered a “newborn” 😳😍 I cant believe how fast time flies! (This picture is from when he was 7 weeks old 🥰) On my YouTube channel, I have a new video up today sharing 7 items that saved mine and Noah’s sanity during this newborn stage (and will continue to be so helpful in the months to come!) Check it out using the link in my bio 😊

C-SECTIONS!
.
Have you had one before? I honestly had no idea what to expect for my scheduled c-section with Noah. After doing everything I possibly could to turn my breech baby head down with no success, I had to go with a scheduled c-section. I knew the recovery would be hard, but I had absolutely no idea to what extent the pain would be like.
.
On my blog, I wrote a detailed post sharing everything I experienced with my c-section recovery, as well as my postpartum must-haves. Click the link in my bio to read the post. And share it with a friend who has an upcoming c-section or is pregnant because you never know if it’ll end in a c-section. I truly wish I had been better prepared for those first few weeks after my c-section 😳😰 But the good news is, it gets so much easier with time! 👍🏻

Noah is 2.5 months! 😍💙 He is the sweetest boy. He smiles and coos constantly and has been so much less fussy than he was in his first 6-7 weeks of life. I feel like we have a different baby and a huge part of that is attributed to me learning how to help him sleep better, feed better, and manage his reflux. It was so sweet celebrating his first Christmas, even though the holidays totally through off his schedule and I got a whole 45 minutes of sleep on Christmas Eve 🤪😅. It was worth it though to spend time with family and make memories for his first Christmas. Each day spent with him just gets sweeter 🥰 I’m so thankful for my boy!

I’m so thankful I get to go through new motherhood with one of my besties. I can’t imagine doing this alone without the support and advice from other mommas! Tag someone below who you’re thankful you get to do life with 💕

The newborn stage is hard, but I will miss these days and Noah being so little 🥺😍🥰

Today Noah is 6 weeks old! But here’s a photo from when he was 1 month that I never got around to posting 🤪😅
.
Noah’s 1 month update:
💙 tracks mommy and daddy and loves to smile at them
💙 has a love/hate relationship with his swing
💙 puts up with Chloe (our labradoodle) always getting in his face (she loves him to death)
💙 loves the bath as long as he isn’t the slightest bit hungry. If hungry, he’ll scream through the entire bath time 🤪
💙 gained 2 pounds in 2 weeks and eats constantly 💪🏻
💙 loves to party during the evening and throughout the night but sleeps well during the day (working on this)
💙 snores and makes lots of noises in his sleep which is hilarious but also requires a lot of white noise at night to be able to sleep 😂
💙 loves tummy time ☺️
.
Luke and I love Noah so much and are so thankful for him!
