2020

I’m sitting at home. ALONE. ALL ALONE. L I T E R A L L Y A L L A L O N E. And it’s been such a great day. I have done so much stuff today that has really filled my cup up to make me a whole human being again. As I […]

one year old

After a hectic start to Jolee’s life…where are we now? Well, I did not keep up month to month posts with Jolee. So, we are pretty much going to jump from 4 months old to now…1 year old. She’s perfect. And feisty. And funny. And I love her so much. As I was editing the […]

Throughout the whole Jolee’s Journey with the Bottle…I have remained cautiously optimistic about the whole situation. She’s taken a bottle and then not taken a bottle and then taken a bottle again. I hoped this was the end of everything. I hoped she was really going to take a bottle forever. Well, not forever, but […]

Well, it’s next week. And I still have pregnancy hormones. AKA my HCG levels are above 0. So aggravating. I went to the doctor on Thursday and they called me on Friday, around the same time as last week. “Hey Keisha, I just wanted to let you know that your HCG levels are a 33, […]

In other news this week, it was actually a good week given the doctor appointment that left me feeling uneasy. Scott and I were actually starting to be happy about our unexpected baby. We were talking about the future and how crazy our lives would be, but we said it with a smile. It was […]

This week was crazy. Never a dull moment in our lives these days. For me, it was work. I have a lot of year end work that I have to do so I had to work on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. Also, if you remember from my last post, Scott was in […]

This week was crazy. It was the dreaded Christmas week. And much more excitement. Some good and some bad… The good… We had the entire Christmas Eve holiday all to ourselves. Just me, Scott, Raelynn, and Briar. No where to go. Nothing to do. So what did we do? We did Christmas shit. We watched […]

I have decided that I’m going to take the same stance on this pregnancy as I did last pregnancy and try to keep up with weekly blogs. Now that I am pregnant again, I’m already looking back to old posts and I’m forever thankful that I posted weekly. My baby is as big as something […]

I realized the other day that I had not been giving as many updates on CrossFit and my diet in a while, so, here we go… If you recall, around 5 months postpartum, I was starting to get some glimpses of sleep. When I actually started to get some consistent nights of sleep, my engine […]

As I hope you’ve previously read, I made the decision to go dairy free when Briar had an adverse reaction to dairy through my breast milk. I’m not a big dairy eater in general so overall it wasn’t that hard for me to give up. It becomes hard when I’m tired and I don’t feel […]

3 WEEKS LEFT I’m having a very emotional time right now. It’s a combination of lack of sleep and potential back labor. I’m going through the reoccurring thoughts of Raelynn no longer being an only child. It’s hard. Every time I look at her this week I think to myself that any day now, she’s […]

Week 37 of Pregnancy 4

4 WEEKS LEFT Another week in the books. Seriously. I cannot believe it. This weekend was the last weekend that we had absolutely nothing to do before Briar’s arrival. All day Saturday we ran errands, Wal-Mart, Lowe’s, Home Depot, Hobby Lobby. We did not stop all day long. The main thing we bought that was […]

Week 36 of Pregnancy 4

5 WEEKS LEFT I know I keep saying it, but seriously, I blink and a week is gone. Well, we started our New Year off with a bang. I have hemorrhoids so bad that it hurts to do anything and Raelynn is pretty sick. On New Year’s eve, the Kentucky Wildcats played in a bowl […]

Week 35 of Pregnancy 4

7 WEEKS LEFT It’s Christmas week. I can’t believe that Christmas is already here. It’s absolutely crazy to me. This whole year has flown by. It’s so very true, as we get older, the days literally fly by. I hate it. For once, I actually had the majority of my Christmas shopping finished. I just […]

Week 33 of Pregnancy 4

8 WEEKS LEFT As it gets closer to Briar getting here, the weeks just go by quicker and quicker. I know I should be happy about this. I am, but I’m not. I am pleasantly surprised with how quick this pregnancy is going, but I am not prepared at all for her to be here […]
