So, to tag onto yesterday’s blog…we now are entering a new phase (hopefully) of Abriella’s existence. We had ordered the book entitled The Happiest Baby on the Block by Harvey Karp, M.D., and it arrived yesterday afternoon. Well, it is a wonderful book (I’m about 2/3 of the way done), and he has some great [...]
So, Abriella was “due” today! Weird to think that I could’ve still been pregnant at this time. But, even weirder to know that she’s already been with us for 3 weeks now! Crazy! We’re so glad that she’s here with us though! She has become a little “high needs” lately though, as in the last [...]

First, I added some belly shots from today. The biggest difference you’ll notice is that my tummy is expanding to the sides. I’m getting more of a wide load! haha! I’m getting more and more uncomfortable every day. I guess I shouldn’t complain. Abriella is probably way more squished and uncomfortable than I am! She [...]
