A mountain or a mole hill?
How does one coherently measure the concept of time? I swear Jonah was 7 weeks old yesterday and now he is 23 weeks, and wearing 12 month clothing!

New Year, New Life
Every day I am in complete awe that I am a mother. My son is the most amazing gift I have ever received and everyday is a new lesson in our life journey. This morning he giggled for the first time.

I am still not dilated and I feel like he's ready to come but my own body is just being stubborn. If I don't progress by the 11th we'll do an ultra sound to see what is holding ( Read more... ) -
