<br />
Happy HALF birthday to our sweet sweet girl!! You spent your half birthday in quarantine during the global pandemic (COVID), but we don't think you minded one bit since all your family was giving you love all day long! We couldn't feel more blessed to have you in our family. Your brothers have been calling you "honey boo" and would do anything for you. They get you your bibs when you spit up, pass your toys to you, are always checking on you, and color you pictures. You are easy going but I can tell already you are very social and determined. I tear up all the time when I rock you at bedtime that you are our daughter. You make us so happy and fill our hearts with so much joy!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b><b>Height: </b>27.5" (90th percentile) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Hair:</b> It's changed to more of a light brown this past month. It's definitely lighter than the boys' hair ever was. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Eyes: </b>STILL BLUE! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<b>Clothes: </b>6-9 months</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Diapers:</b> 3's</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Sleeping:</b> She is still taking 3 naps per day and goes to bed at 6:45/7 and wakes around 7-7:30. She has started sleeping on her belly this past month once I switched her into a regular sleepsack. She seems to love sleeping on her belly and is never on her back anymore! <br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Likes: </b>Sitting up // Scooting around the room // Playing peekaboo in her high chair with her brothers (they crawl under it) // musical toys // Her feet // Balls // When we listen to music and dance with her // Baths // Turning the pages to books // Millie the Mouse dill </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Dislikes:</b> Waiting for her bottles or baby food :) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Eating:</b> She has tried a ton of purees by this point and her favorite is definitely butternut squash. Actually, she seems to just really love food so far in general. She will scream if I don't feed her fast enough. She gets 3 baby food per day. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Health:</b> Good!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<b>Teeth:</b> No teeth yet! Both her brothers had a tooth by now. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Milestones:</b> She's extremely close to crawling! She's also babbling and I swear I think I may have heard dada once, but we aren't sure yet. Lots of scooting around the room, she likes to be on the move and is pretty determined to get to her toys or what she wants! </div>

<b>Sleeping:</b> She has been giving me three one-hour long naps this past month, some days she will do a longer 2 hour nap and the other 2 are shorter! Working on trying to get them a little longer, but since we are on the go a lot it makes that pretty difficult. She is still going to bed at 7pm and sleeps in the Merlin sleepsuit but I'm transitioning her to just a sleep sack here shortly.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Likes: </b>Playing airplane // Stuffed animals // Her loveys // the Jumperoo (she was actually unsure about this at first-she cried the first few times I tried to put her in it but she got used to it quickly and now she LOVES it and bounces all the time) // books with music // laughing at her brothers // </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Eating:</b> 6 oz every 3-3.5 hours, 6 oz at bedtime bottle. We did just start her on baby food and her first two foods were sweet potatoes and carrots! She was definitely unsure about both at first, but loved the sweet potatoes!<br />
<br />
<b>Health:</b> Other than a stubborn drool rash, she's been doing great!<br />
<br />
<b>Milestones:</b> She started sitting up on her own the day before she turned 5 months old! Such a strong little girl! She loves to practice sitting up now. She's also rolling both ways and we can't keep her on her back anymore - she just rolls right on over to her tummy! She's also babbling a ton, she's pretty loud and we love hearing her find her little voice. :)<br />

(posting this update super late-forgive me Leights!)</div>
<br />
The biggest change this past month was moving little miss to her own room! First we transitioned her to her crib for naps and kept it in our room. Once she was sleeping well in her crib, we decided to move it to her room because we felt she was waking more often in the night because she knew we were right next to her. She seems to love her room now and is sleeping even better in her own space and so are we...so cheers to that!!<br />

<b>Sleeping:</b> The biggest change this past month has been moving up her bedtime to 7 and into her OWN CRIB!! We moved her crib into our room (because I haven't been ready to transition her to her own room yet) and she transitioned pretty easily. She does still like to be rocked for naps, so I've been slowly trying to get her to nap/fall asleep on her own at least for during the day when I have the boys. We also transitioned her out of the swaddle around the same time as starting her sleep in the crib, so now she is in the Merlin sleep suit! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Likes: </b>Unicorn tails book / when the boys are near her, she always laughs / her feet being tickled / sticking her tongue out / soft blankets / mommy is still her favorite / smiling and laughing</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Dislikes:</b> Waiting for her bottle when she's super hungry / getting out of the bath! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Eating:</b> Still eating every 3 hours during the day (5 oz) and then has those longer stretches at night. Sister has been drooling like crazy lately.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<b>Milestones:</b> It's been a huge month in terms of development...baby girl rolled from her belly to back for the first time when we were in Florida (and now she is constantly doing it!) She found her hands recently too and they are constantly in her mouth!! She also loves to scream and blow raspberries! She is grasping things now so holding her rattles and grabbing at books.<br />
<br />
<b>Firsts: </b>SO many firsts this month too...the most exciting being her very first Christmas. It was so incredibly special with her, even if she's still so little. She made it so much more fun. She even met Santa for the first time with her brothers and didn't cry at all :) She also went on her first flight - we went on vacation to Florida! She was an angel on the trip...very easy going, happy, and napped at the pool or on my chest in the wrap if we were at the beach. She also got to meet a lot of extended family members over the holidays which was great!<br />
<br />
Leighton, you fit into our family so perfectly and are such a joy. You are ALWAYS smiling, laughing, and cuddly. Thank you for being such a good baby!! We love watching you grow!<br />

<b>Weight: </b>We haven't been to the pediatrician yet, but I know she is about 11 lbs (probably more but I'm not sure yet!)<br />
<br />
<b>Height:</b> Will update once I have her appointment</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Hair:</b> Brown - it's growing longer in the back and sticks right up!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Eyes: </b>Blue still</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Clothes: </b>0-3 or 3 month</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Diapers:</b> Size 1</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Sleeping:</b> We've moved up her bedtime up a bit so she takes her last bottle around 745-8 and then is asleep by 830ish. She has given me some long stretches lately and is sleeping until around 4am which is amazing! She is still sleeping right next to my side of the bed, but I'm thinking I'm going to start transitioning her to her own room/crib for naps next week. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Likes: </b>Smiling at the camera (she always hams it up when I bring it out), when I stretch her arms up over her head, bath time, and her room! We don't go in her room often since she isn't sleeping in there yet, but when we do she will start smiling at things on her wall and just look around so much at everything! Still loves when we rock her and she is starting to love her swing more (has put her to sleep for naps a few times.) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Dislikes:</b> Being cold after her bath (getting changed when you're cold is the worst, right?), waiting for a bottle, gas pains, that's pretty much it! She does much better getting into her car seat now and doesn't seem to mind it. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Eating:</b> Still eating every 3 hours during the day (4-5 oz) and then has those longer stretches at night</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<b>Milestones:</b> She is smiling much more often now and giving us some sweet coo's and tiny giggles!<br />
<br />
<b>Firsts: </b>This month Leighton had her first Thanksgiving (we traveled to my Dad's side about an hour away), went to her first movie (Frozen 2-and she slept the entire time on my lap!), and unfortunately got her first cold. She was just very congested for about a week, and I got nervous that it would turn into RSV but luckily she got better pretty quickly. The only downside to having a fall baby is having to deal with all the back to school/winter sicknesses!<br />
<br />
I feel like this month we are getting to see her personality develop a bit more as she's more awake and starting to smile at us. She has such a sweet demeanor and is so relaxed/patient with the boys when they hold her (and don't really understand much about personal space ha!) My FAVORITE part of everyday is when she wakes up and I unswaddle her and she does her little stretches! Also, I'm feeling much more with it and more like myself since I'm getting more sleep! However, there are definitely still days that are SO busy when I have all 3 kids on my own (when boys aren't in school) and I feel like I'm torn in so many directions, and that I barely get time with boys since I'm helping Leighton so much. I know we are still settling into things, though. I'm soo excited to continue to watch her grow and love on her!! Happy 2 months, baby girl!<br />

I think most of you know by now, but our beautiful daughter Leighton was born on October 3 at 9:59am after a smooth delivery via c-section! She weighed 7 lbs 10 ounces and was 20.5 inches long. Her birth and delivery was much different than the boys' - the morning of I felt much more relaxed, knowing what to expect this time (since I had to have a csection with Grayson), and honestly it just went so quick and went very smoothly! We checked into the hospital that morning around 730am and by 930am I was back in the OR getting my spinal, and she was born less than 30 minutes later! My doctor used a clear drape, per my request, during my csection instead of the traditional blue drape which gave me the ability to see Leighton being born and be much more a part of the whole process. I am really glad that I (ever so randomly) decided to ask her about it the week before I gave birth, and would absolutely recommend it to any of you who are having a csection delivery. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As you can imagine, it is hard to put into words how special and incredible it was meeting our daughter for the first time. I shed so many tears of joy when I saw her face and they told me she was healthy and perfect. I spent over nine months in my head wondering what she would look like and dreaming about the first time I'd get to see her (actually, make that years!) and it surpassed every expectation...she was my perfect little angel girl! I remember thinking how much she resembled both boys and noticing her pretty long fingers and feet and her tiny little lips that resemble mine. Seeing Billy with his baby girl was a tear jerker, too. He was snapping pictures of her pretty much right away, haha. In the weeks leading up to her delivery, we were all so excited and beyond ready to meet her. The boys were getting anxious counting down the days and I was getting really uncomfortable being pregnant in the final few weeks because she kept switching positions and at my 38 week appointment they even wondered if she had turned breech (she ended up being born head down!) So...you can believe me when I say that when the boys came to the hospital later in the afternoon that day to meet her that they were over the moon excited to finally see her and hold her! They both asked to hold her multiple times and they even sang a few songs to her which melted our hearts. I felt so much happiness seeing her with her brothers knowing that they will forever all have each other and will take care of each other.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Truthfully, I'm not that shocked that I'm just now sharing about her here on the blog (over one month later-don't be mad at me down the road Leighton haha) because man oh man...life is busy with 3 kiddos and right now time is so valuable. The days go even faster than before and right now I am just doing my best to juggle it all. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My postpartum recovery with her has been the easiest by far which has been helpful considering it's been a big adjustment transitioning from 2 to 3 kids. And by that I mean there is just a heck of a lot more planning that has to happen, many more naps on the go vs lounging with your new little one at home on your chest, and just a lot more logistics. However, aside from all that (the first few weeks were definitely tough trying to balance it all!) it has been smooth for the most part. The boys have missed having all my attention at times, but they couldn't be sweeter to their sister and want to be by her side at all times. They really are wonderful with her - I can't wait to watch her relationship with them grow!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Sleeping:</b> She goes to bed around 830/9 and normally wakes up once around 2-3 to feed then goes back to bed until 5-6. Sometimes she will wake around 1am still to eat and then goes another 3 hours before her next feed. Since she was born, she naps really well on the go but in the beginning was just doing small cat naps when at home. She has gotten a lot better napping here at home now, but I'll still have to hold her or wear her in the wrap for one nap per day. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Likes: </b>Sister LOVES to be held and rocked, bath time (except for getting out when she gets cold!), listening to her brothers, music</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Dislikes:</b> Getting into her carseat (but once settled and on the move she is ok) and having gas pains! We found out early on that she has silent reflux (she was very fussy and uncomfortable the first few weeks - especially after feedings and in the middle of the night, lots of grunting, sad cries, a ton of hiccups, etc.) but since Camden had it we knew the steps to take and how we could help her and now she is doing so much better and much more content! Hardly any fussing and a happy baby :) Something that has helped her reflux tremendously has been seeing a chiropractor once a week...we never did this with Camden but now I wish I would have known more about it! She is so relaxed when she gets adjusted (they just apply light gentle pressure) and it has made a significant difference in helping with her reflux symptoms. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Eating:</b> Every 3 hours during the day and then the longer stretches at night</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Milestones:</b> She is great at holding her head up already and has started giving us some smiles which are SO sweet! She's getting more used to tummy time now, too.<br />
<br />
She is truly the sweetest little babe and makes us all so very happy. I still can't believe at times that I have a daughter...it makes me want to cry! I am trying to soak up and enjoy every single minute of this infant season, even on the days I'm exhausted. Oh...and baby sister looks A LOT like Camden (it's crazy how similar they look!!) but we definitely see Grayson in her, too. I wonder if she will be a good mix of both boys, but of course be her own adorable little person as well. :) We LOVE you soooo much, sweet girl! You have made us so so happy since you came into the world. Thank you for completing our family!<br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Wow you guys! How has it been this long since I've posted an update? I guess all of you that told me this is just how it goes with the third baby were right, huh? ๐ It's hard to believe, but we are just 8 days away from welcoming Leighton into our family, so it's time I get this last bump date up and share pictures of her nursery, even if it's just so that we have for our own personal memories and records. </span><br />

I've definitely been feeling ALL the feels lately and have been really emotional, but I know that this is normal. The boys are acting very excited for her to arrive...Camden told me yesterday, "Leighton is going to come out soon and when she does-she's going to rip your shirt!" ha. Grayson has also been pretty emotional lately and pushing boundaries a bit-I've had some hard talks with him (that have ended with me in tears just because I want him to feel so loved!) due to the fact that he's definitely feeling that change is coming, and that he will no longer be the baby. Before bed, though, he tells me all the people in our family that he loves and he always says "I love baby Leighton!" </span></span><br />

<b>Happy Friday!</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All of the items below are so affordable! They aren't maternity, but they do work really well if you have a growing bump. I typically try to show me wearing some of these on my instastories as I wear them because that way is just easier for me right now rather than trying them all on for a blog post! I'll put all sizing info under each item. Happy shopping!</div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">(this is the</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><a href="https://rstyle.me/cz-n/dgvkacppze" style="font-family: inherit;">best dress</a><span style="font-family: inherit;"> for pregnancy, Iโm wearing the long sleeve version but I also bought the sleeveless in one size up to wear during the summer!)</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">First trimester thoughts....</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I finally got to experience a "real" first trimester because I had it way too good with my previous pregnancies</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">So fun to be able to share the news with the boys</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">Exhaustion hit me like a ton of bricks everyday, I couldn't make it through without napping. B6 seemed to help with morning sickness!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">I've had two ultrasounds so far (pictures below) and I semi forgot how amazing and special they really are</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">It's been harder to give up alcohol this time around, probably because a. I had the boys back to back and this time I got a longer break so I was used to having my glass of wine or white claw and b. I have two toddlers running around this time and some days are a real doozy! ;)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>Bump popped out much earlier this time, around 9-10 weeks</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I did feel a little more anxious/</span>worrisome<span style="font-family: inherit;"> this time around in the beginning, mainly about if baby was ok and healthy</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">Finding out the gender so early and that baby is healthy (thanks to the blood test at my doctors office) is such a blessing</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">Name Situation:</strong> We have a favorite (a few actually, back from when we came up with names when I was pregnant with Camden), but we havenโt decided on one for sure yet!</span></div>
<div style="letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="color: #3e3e3b; word-wrap: break-word;">Gender:</strong><span style="color: #3e3e3b;"> We found out on Thursday March 28th that baby is a </span><span style="color: magenta;">GIRL</span><span style="color: #3e3e3b;">!! ๐ We will never ever forget that moment. I was putting Camden down for a nap when I saw I had a voicemail that the test results were in. I was so nervous to call my doctors office back, and when I heard them say the results were normal and that itโs a baby girl I immediately started crying, and then quickly called Billy with the news.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">Sickness:</strong> No morning sickness as of the past week (YAY), but at 11.5 weeks I came down with a stomach virus and was really sick for 4 days. I was miserable and the sickest I've been in years. It was really hard to bounce back from, so I'm extremely happy just to be feeling better overall.</span></div>
<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">Cravings:</strong> Cereal, fruit (oranges), ice cream and candy, margaritas (haha)</span></div>
<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">Aversions:</strong> My aversions have been less than they were before, but still not a big fan of any meat right now.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Nursery:</b> We have 3 bedrooms upstairs and the biggest room is actually in our loft space (which is open right now and not a closed yet) so our first step is that we are getting this bedroom closed off, and then we will decide if we're keeping the boys in their current rooms and use the 3rd bedroom as the nursery, or if we will move Camden to that big room and use the smallest room for the nursery. I have ideas, though, on how I want the nursery to look so I'm feeling really excited about getting started! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Heartbeat:</b> 140 at our first appointment, 164 at the second</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">What I'm Wearing: </strong><span style="word-wrap: break-word;">It is so nice that high waisted jeans are in right now because they will still fit me for awhile. I haven't had to use the rubber band trick yet but I'm sure that fun is right around the corner. Since Iโm in still in that in between phase of not really looking pregnant but instead that I ate too much</span><span style="word-wrap: break-word;">, Iโve been just wearing loose tops. I have a post that will be up tomorrow with some things Iโve bought recently that are bump friendly! </span></span></div>
<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">Sleep: </strong><span style="word-wrap: break-word;">Iโve been sleeping really well at home, but </span><span style="word-wrap: break-word;">when we were in Disney I had the hardest time falling asleep. It took me 3 hours to actually fall asleep a few nights. Probably due to sharing a room with 2 kids and a husband... :)</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">

<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">Workouts: </strong><span style="word-wrap: break-word;">During the first trimester and when I first found out I was pregnant, I noticed right away how much I needed to slow down with my running. With the boys' pregnancies I didn't run out of breath as much as I do now, and it's weird because I've been just as active leading up to getting pregnant like I was with them. My circulation this pregnancy has also been really different (my veins are extremely blue and out of control!)) Now that I'm feeling better I try to get in 2-3 workouts on the treadmill/some weights per week, but there were definitely some weeks in the beginning where it was less and I couldn't workout due to being sick. </span></span></div>
<div style="word-wrap: break-word;">
<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><strong style="word-wrap: break-word;">What we're most excited about: </strong><span style="word-wrap: break-word;">Well, finding out we are having a girl definitely takes the cake for the most exciting moment but we're both really excited about decorating the nursery!</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<span style="color: black; letter-spacing: normal; white-space: normal;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Practically everything has been different with this pregnancy, so I thought it would be fun to share how opposite things have been for me. Please remember this is just my experience and I know everyone has different pregnancies (and are maybe are more sick with boys than girls), but for me the "typical" girl symptoms you hear of have been SO spot on...</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #3e3e3b; letter-spacing: 0.17249999940395355px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">With the boys...</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My hair: Shiny and grew FAST, Now: Sooo dry!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Carrying: Very low, Now: Higher </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Skin: Dry, Now: Really soft</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Food aversions: Virtually NONE, Now: Smells bother me & tons of aversions!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Aches/pains: Were all on my right side with the boys, Now: Left side</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">So yeah, very very different experiences for me. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>We are so excited to meet you, baby girl!!! You are SO loved already! </b></span></span></div>

We can hardly believe it and have been on cloud 9 since finding out! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A little baby girl who will have two amazing big brothers to protect her, I truly couldnโt feel happier if I tried. We would have been thrilled to give the boys another brother and add another son to our family, but we were really hoping we would be able to have a daughter since this is most likely our last child. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ever since my mom passed away when I was a teenager, Iโve always had a strong desire to have a mother daughter relationship with my own daughter, and I have cried so many happy tears that I will have that opportunity (and how cool is it that my due date is within a few weeks of my mom's birthday?) The boys are truly so excited to have a little sister...they ran around the house screaming when we told them and told me they wanted to go buy her a new toy....a monster truck to be exact, haha! And as for Camden? Apparently we never needed to get a blood test done because he told Billy a few days before we found out that we were pregnant, โI have a little brother and soon Iโm going to be getting a little sister!โ ๐ณ๐ </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This entire pregnancy Iโve really felt in my heart that this baby is a girl, but logic kept telling me boy! This pregnancy has been the exact opposite of both the boys' (a whole new post for a different day) that it just makes so much sense. We found out on Thursday and it has been the hardest secret to keep, even if itโs only been a few days! We have just been really soaking it up, telling our families (they are ecsatic!), feeling thankful that she is healthy, and naturally I had to run out and get a quick shopping trip in for this little girl! Let's not even talk about the fact of how much trouble I'm going to be in now that I get to shop in <i>all</i> the sections....</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Baby number 3 is arriving early October! </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I know it's been basically forever since I've posted on my blog, but how could I not come on here and share this huge news?! We are all very excited for this little one to join our family, and it was so fun being able to announce (on my instagram) while we were in Disney World this past week.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm so sorry for somewhat abandoning my blog, but I've made the decision that I'm going to start making time for it again because I miss this outlet so much, and I also really want to document this new journey in our life.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I thought I would share a little bit about this pregnancy real quick.... </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Due date?</b> October 10th (I am currently 11 weeks now)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Are we finding out the gender?</b> We will find out if baby is a boy or girl within the next week (is it not crazy how early you can find out now with the bloodtests?!) and will do a reveal after we find out!! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>How have I been feeling?</b> I found out I was pregnant the day before my period was due back on January 28th, and I only took the test because I was cleaning out under my bathroom sink before bed and wanted to be able to throw away the last box of pregnancy tests that I had (it came with 7 or so and there was only 1 left.) Haha! We had been trying for the past 6 months and basically all the other months I could've *sworn* I was pregnant, but ended up getting false tests so this was actually the one month that I didn't think I was pregnant, but once I took the test the line came up positive within seconds! I couldn't help but scream and tell Billy right away. :) I started getting really bad morning sickness around 6.5 weeks and then the food aversions and exhaustion came with it too. So far this pregnancy has been completely different than the boys...I felt really good in general with both of them (I had some morning sickness with Grayson but nothing like I've had with this pregnancy) and my energy was up, but this time around I've needed a nap almost daily and just haven't felt much like myself! The morning sickness creeps in around 3pm and lasts all night, but luckily as of the past week I've started feeling much better! Another difference with this pregnancy is that I actually feel sick after I eat (versus with the boys food always seemed to make me feel better) and smells have really gotten to me. I canโt even change Graysonโs diapers sometimes without running to the bathrooms after. I know that all of this won't last forever and that it'll all be worth it for a healthy baby! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>How did the boys react?</b> We showed the boys the ultrasound picture and they were so excited! Camden has been asking for another sibling for about a year now, haha. He has been baby obsessed lately. Grayson always says, "awww baby! so cute!" and then gives my belly a hug. They have colored pictures for the baby and seem to be pretty excited! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Okay, now it's time for some fun old wives tales. I really don't believe any of these because they were all mainly wrong with both boys, but it's still fun to document and keep track of, right?!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Heartbeat:</b> 140-145 (Camdenโs heartbeat was always 160-165 and Graysonโs was around 140 as well) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Cravings:</b> Sweets, carbs, and fruit. Literally NOTHING in between. There have been many days that literally nothing sounds good! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Morning Sickness:</b> Yes</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Sleeping on Left or Right Side:</b> Right</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Heartburn:</b> No</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Chinese Calendar Says: </b>Boy (it said girl for both boys Iโm pretty sure!) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Headaches:</b> Not many</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Complexion: </b>No breakouts! <br />
<b>Baking</b> <b>Soda</b> <b>Test</b>: This one was correct with both boys. It fizzed for them, no fizz this time. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Baby Bump is High or Low: </b>I feel like I'm carrying higher this time so far, and I definitely started showing earlier. I have felt so bloated ever since I peed on that stick! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Mommy's Guess: </b>Boy (mainly because it's all I know after 2 boys) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Daddy's Guess:</b> Girl</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'll be back with another fun post soon! Thank you for coming back to read our news!!!! </div>

<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">For those of you who may not know me, Iโm Stephanie (obviously), an ex-blogger (dun dun dun), momma of two tiny terrorists (I mean, my precious little Pโs...Paisley & Parker), a health and wellness junkie (where are all my Isagenix girls at?!) who also just so happens to specialize in vacation planning.

You see...Iโm #thatcrazydisneymom who drank the magical potion years ago and since then Iโve sent thousands of clients to the happiest place on Earth that is Disney World and Disneyland, as well as Disney cruises, Disneyโs Aulani resort in Hawaii, and many, many other destinations.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">With our Disney World vacation right around the corner, Katie asked me to step in and put together a post to include everything you could ever possibly need for your Disney World or Disneyland vacation. While this list could go on for days because โฆ. #kids and the fact that they need #allthethings, I wanted to touch on some of the most important key items to include in your suitcase before you pack up and head to the castle.</span></span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Because Disney World is located in Orlando, Florida, and has somewhat of a tropical climate, it is very important that you pack the proper attire for each and every day youโll be there. Similar to Disney World, Disneyland requires proper packing as well. While it is warm in Disney World and Disneyland 7-9 months out of the year, the key to a stress-free vacation is a properly packed suitcase for your and your family. Additionally, because Disney has a very advanced technological vacation system, there are many items you want to be sure to include when it comes to packing your suitcase.</span></span></div>

<b>1. CAMDEN STARTED PRESCHOOL</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He started the first week of September and he is in the purple room with Mrs. Curley and Mrs. Tatum! He goes just 2 days a week, but is loving it so far and has made some friends. He walks right in and I'm lucky if I get a big hug or smooch prior. Grayson cried the first few drop offs, but quickly snapped out of it when he realized mommy was going to give him some fun one-on-one time. I've been enjoying the extra time with him so much. I know Camden is going to learn so much this year and we're all happy for him because he was so ready. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<b>2. DISNEY WORLD</b><br />
<br />
I leave in less than 2 weeks to go on a girls trip to Disney with Steph! Can you even believe it's been over a year and a half since I've seen her?! Another very very exciting thing? For those of you that don't know, Steph has her own travel agency business (Traveling Ears-look her up on insta or Facebook) and she offered to do GUEST POSTS on my blog!! Woo woo! I will keep you posted!<br />

<b>3. MY HAIR LOSS</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I know I did a post recently explaining a little bit of what has been going on with my hair loss (due to my thyroid med), but unfortunately it's gotten even worse. I'm now on a different medication and although the scalp issues I was having while on the previous med (burning and itching) went away RIGHT after I stopped taking that med, the hair loss has continued and gotten even worse. It takes time for that old medication to get out of my system and boy is this depressing! I fill up my brush daily (yes daily) and had to get hair extensions put in last week because of how bad the condition my hair is in. I know there are way worse situations out there so I hesitant to use this word - but it's been traumatic for me. It's happening all over my head - not just the bottom layer. My top layer is about 4 inches long now. I can't believe I'm posting that picture but I wanted you all to see what I've been dealing with and that I'm not just being dramatic. The hair extensions I got put in are absolutely amazing and look just like my real hair - they are the length that I (used) to have and blend so nicely. I plan to do an entire post about the hair extensions and who I used soon so stay tuned!!</div>

<b>5. GRAYSON'S SPEECH</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
If you missed the post I shared on instagram, here's what I wrote....<br />
<br />
This past week Grayson had his first speech therapy session. (He's had 2 now!) He has always been able to say almost any word (with prompting) but is just more on the quiet side when expressing on his own. We knew heโd benefit from speech therapy and that he just needed a bit of a nudge in the right direction. ๐ I could cry as I type this but just after one session and us working with him all week, he is now combining two words, talking so much more confidently, and has finally said the words every mama anxiously awaits to hear, โI love you!โ ๐๐ญ So happy and proud of this angel!!!<br />
<br />
So yes...speech therapy is going well for us so far! Like I said, Grayson can say a good 50-60 words but he hadn't combined two words yet, and rarely spoke up on his own without prompting. He also makes a "blowing" noise when trying to say certain words that isn't very noticeable unless you live with him, but he has done it for a very long time. We took him to an ENT to make sure it wasn't a larger issue and to get his hearing checked (which he passed with flying colors), and our ENT (we actually used him back when Camden had to go to an ENT!) said he thinks it's just an odd habit and to continue on with speech therapy and hope that as he continues to speak more that he will just stop making the noise. So far - he's correct because just after these 2 speech session he rarely makes the noise anymore and is speaking so much! Of course we're thrilled, but what's even better is that HE IS SO MUCH HAPPIER because he can communicate with us!<br />
<br />
Phew. That was a lot in one post. Thanks for reading friends and hope you had a great weekend!!Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13699293636698337811noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4228314159224187996.post-42658652087731847312018-09-12T21:33:00.006-04:002018-09-13T08:16:31.190-04:00OUR DINING ROOM UPDATEHI ALL!!<br />
<br />
How is everyone doing?! I have so many updates that I want to share with you guys (post for Five on Friday!) but today I wanted to share about our dining room that is finallyyyy finished...for now. :)<br />
<br />
Since the main table we eat at with the kids is right off the kitchen, this room isn't actually used much. I was a little hesitant about buying these chairs because of the fabric, but when I found them on super sale I told myself to go for it because I LOOOOVEEE them. Oh and can we talk about how it took me 6 months to find a dining room table and took 3 different rug attempts before I finally found this one and decided it was the winner? Sooo, yeah, indecisive is my middle name and I'm not really that great at this stuff BUT I'm happy now that it's all come together!<br />

Hi friends! As of this past month, thanks to my lovely thyroid medication I switched to recently, I've suffered from extreme hair breakage, loss, and thinning. ๐ฐ I have always had really thick hair and never had any real hair loss issues (except for the random regrowth postpartum), so as you can imagine I was literally shocked when I looked in the mirror one night and realized about half my head of hair was gone and there's breakage happening all over. I may have shed a few (or a lot) of tears.<br />
<br />
After speaking with my doctor and trying to make a plan of action with him-I got online, asked friends (and you all!), and read a ton of different reviews on different products/supplements to help, and landed on all of these ones as some of the best.<br />
<br />
In the past few weeks (almost a month now) I've been using them, my hair feels a lot stronger and I haven't seen as much breakage happening. All of these products come highly recommended and ones that I've been using everyday/every few days to help! I think my favorite product being the Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides...but the Way To Grow Leave-In is my second fav find.<br />
<br />
If you've suffered from hair loss before, what helped you?! I'm praying mine resolves as quickly as it can.Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13699293636698337811noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4228314159224187996.post-63616558442142474702018-08-10T09:03:00.000-04:002018-08-10T09:03:29.131-04:00Friday Thoughts<div style="text-align: left;">
HEY HEY HEY BLOG FRIENDS!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It has been quite some time since I've popped into this space of mine on the internet, and boy have I missed it. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I just got home on Tuesday from being in NASHVILLE!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was there for my Isagenix conference and I'm not sure if you followed along via my instagram stories, but it was THE BEST TIME. I'm very thankful to be partnered with a company that goes above and beyond for it's associates and customers, and truly cares about making a difference in peoples lives. We all had SO much fun...they released a ton of new products, we got to hear from a bunch of motivational speakers, be spoiled at a white party, I could go on and on... but the best part was that I got to meet sooo many of my teammates that I've "known" for years via social media, but had yet to meet in person. Being able to just hug them and love on them was unlike anything else. I'm truly so happy I joined this company, and I'm so excited to see who joins our team this year and comes to our next event!! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But...today what I really wanted to talk about is something that's been really heavy on my heart this week. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
One of the first blogs I ever followed back in the day was <a href="http://www.smidgeofthis.com/">April at A. Liz Adventures</a> (now called Smidge Of This.) We have had our babies around the same times and she is just one of the sweetest women out there that I really admire. When I was in Nashville, it was heartbreaking to hear the news that her 2 year old daughter has been diagnosed with an incurable, terminal disease called Leukodstrophy. I can't even begin to imagine how much grief they are currently experiencing. Charlotte is the most adorable, beautiful little girl. I have shed many tears putting myself in her shoes and having to go through what she is currently dealing with. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Her friend, <a href="https://www.northcarolinacharm.com/2018/08/prayers-for-charlotte.html">Caroline at Carolina Charm</a>, put together a blog post with ways to help April and her family during this time. If you feel inclined, please <a href="https://www.northcarolinacharm.com/2018/08/prayers-for-charlotte.html">go here</a> to read about ways you can support them. They have a Go Fund Me account set up as well as an Amazon wish list. It would mean the world to me and every dollar adds up. Most importantly, please PRAY for Charlotte, April, and the rest of the their family. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I will be back next week with some new posts! Have a great weekend!!</div>

This past weekend we celebrated our littlest turning 2! His birthday is actually this Friday (27th), but due to some of our schedules we decided to have his party early. We will be going to meet his new cousin (yay!!!) and to the lake on Friday, so it was just easier for everyone. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grayson has been obsessed with dinosaurs lately (he says RAWWWRRR any chance he gets), and I loved the idea of incorporating them for his party. I kept the food simple and bought a mac and cheese platter from GFS and did sliders and some other dips and Billy made a dinosaur head out of a watermelon (turned out so cute!) that we stuffed with fruit. </div>

Billy's friend let him borrow his adult sized dinosaur costume (that he used for his nephews party recently) to surprise the kids with and it was absolutely hysterical watching their reactions! Some of them were scared and weary in the beginning (Grayson clung to me for a few minutes) and some (aka Camden) were jumping up and down excited! It didn't take long for the kids to warm up to T Rex (especially after some dance moves) and soon enough they were all giving high-fives and hugs. I got some really great videos that I can't wait to show them when they're older! Grayson was smiling from ear to ear the entire party - we know he had the best time. </div>

To add to the excitement that day, Billy's brother and his wife had their baby boy DURING Grayson's party! We were all so happy and excited. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Only a few more sleeps with a one year old...le sigh. Grayson has been the biggest blessing to our family, I can't even talk about it without wanting to sob my eyes out. He is truly the sweetest, most gentle, silly, lovable little boy out there. We are beyond thankful that he is ours and to for the opportunity to watch him grow every single day. I cherish every moment I have with him. Can't wait to celebrate him on Friday, too! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

We love you SO much, buddy! </div>

<b><i>I confess...</i></b>I'm in full blown party planning mode for Grayson's birthday party which is THIS Sunday! His actual birthday isn't until the 27th, but we're having his party a weekend early. I am loving the dinosaur theme we're doing, and one of Billy's friends gave him an adult T Rex costume so I'm freaking PUMPED to see him dress up for the kids. I'm truly sad that my littlest boy is turning TWO. It feels like I don't have a true baby in the house now (even though they both still are to me), and I'm thinking we may have to change that soon. :)<br />

(this was from the zoo yesterday-they have a dinosaur boat ride that the boys went absolutely crazy over, and I thought it was a perfect thing to do before the party this weekend!)</div>
<br />
<b><i>I confess...</i></b>I head to Nashville in a few weeks with a bunch of my awesome Isagenix teammates for a fun company trip! I wanted to see if you guys had any recommendations for good coffee (frothy monkey I went to the last time I visited-is that the best?) and a good brunch, and then a fun trendy dinner spot.<br />
<br />
<b><i>I confess...</i></b>stay at home mommying can be so tiring in the summer. I try to constantly be on the go doing fun things with the boys, but man it is exhausting some days. Especially on days you get stung by 2 wasps at the park, says the girl who is currently icing her swollen ankle and foot. And on the same note - it's also been so incredibly fun. I feel so fortunate to be able to stay home with the boys (and also make an income!) and watch their relationship develop. My stepmom took Cam the other day to spend time just one on one with her, and Grayson was so sad and had a meltdown for a good 30-40 minutes. He truly missed him, and that also worries me a little since Camden will be starting preschool soon! They do mainly everything together every single day so I know it'll be an adjustment for the both of them.<br />
<br />
<b><i>I confess...</i></b>I have A LOTTTTT of good items in my cart for the N Sale starting on Friday (when it opens to the public!) I will have a post up bright and early Friday morning so that you guys can easily shop them.<br />
<br />
<b><i>I confess...</i></b>I ate the last pack of the boys' fruit snacks the other night and justified it by telling myself that since there was only 1 left I didn't want Cam and Gray to fight over it, so it was clearly meant for me. We're at that point now that if they see me eating something when they aren't, I have to legit be super secretive or hide in a corner so they don't see me and ask for half of it. HAHA.<br />
<br />
<b><i>I confess...</i></b>I finally found decor to hang on our family room wall!!! THIS IS MAJOR PEOPLE. It's only taken me like 7 months. But I LOOOOOVEE it and just have to take pictures then I can show you all what I went with. We also got a new dining room table and I'm just waiting on the rug to be delivered and to buy the chairs I want!<br />

<br /></div>
TODAY is the FIRST day of the <a href="http://bit.ly/2JgGOsv">Nordstrom Anniversary Sale</a>!!!<br />
<br />
Early Access starts now but if you don't if you donโt have early access yet, you can still sign up for a <a href="https://shop.nordstrom.com/content/rewards-cards?cm_sp=Top+Navigation-_-Anniversary+Sale+Early+Access_-_-Apply+for+a+Card&origin=topnav">Nordstrom Card </a>to be able to shop the items early + get a $40 Nordstrom Note to spend.<br />

The most popular items sell out VERY quickly, so if you think you want it I would buy it and if it doesn't work for you you can always return it (free returns!) If you donโt have a Nordstrom Card, you will get to shop the sale on July 20th, but you can still preview everything now.<br />

Happy Tuesday! Is everyone getting pumped up to shop the Norstrom Sale that starts for cardholders on Thursday?! I will have a post up that day with all my favorite picks and the best selling items that you will want to snag before they sell out. For now itโs time to recap this past weekend...<br />
<br />
I don't remember the last concert I've been to, but this weekend I decided to add another one to the list and went to Taylor Swift's Reputation concert which was at Ohio Stadium!<br />
<br />
My SIL got tickets and asked me to go with her and some friends. Our seats were high, but the tickets were practically free and we still had a great view (plus the weather was not too hot, it was PERFECT!) so it was pretty awesome. Taylor put on such a good show and had tons of fireworks and other crazy special effects. And it was actually the largest production event in Columbus...<br />

We took the boys to the pool on Sunday and I actually got to spend nap time at the adult only pool while Billy held the fort down at home... ๐<br />
<br />
I've been debating getting the boys ISR swim lessons - has anyone done them with their kids before? Grayson is just as good as a swimmer as Camden and funny enough Camden has gone through lessons twice! I just feel like more private lessons or ones that teach them to swim independently may be better for them with how often we are at the pool and go to the lake! <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hi friends!! How was your 4th?! I hope you all had a safe and fun holiday! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to share a few pictures of ours, and some others from the past few weeks. The heat has been crazy here the past few days and we practically melted at the 4th of July parade in Dublin that we took the boys to, but it was worth it to see them have fun and enjoy it! That's what our job is as parents, right? ha! We got smarter as the day went on and just spent it at the pool and had a yummy dinner at home!</div>

Billy's brother and his wife are due in just a few short weeks now too so we absolutely cannot wait to meet our newphew and for the boys to meet their new cousin!!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But as for today, everyone in our family except myself (knock on wood) is now sick in some way, but I'm trying to stay positive that it's just a cold (except with Grayson he has a little tummy bug happening) and we will all be better soon! We have been so lucky because the boys haven't been sick in SUCH a long time....this past winter they didn't get sick once, so it's definitely been a blessing having a break from it all. </div>
