A New Baby

It started with a conversation. I told my husband, Cody, that I wanted to have another baby. I said we had to hurry and start trying, because I wanted Gennie to have a little sibling close in age like my sister and I. We agreed, and after trying for just one month, we started talking that we may actually want to wait a bit longer.

After I realized I had been acting like a bit of a lunatic, with a few emotional breakdowns over small things, I decided to take a pregnancy test. We were thrilled!

A Secret to Share

Anyone who knows me, knows I am the absolute WORST at keeping secrets. The only exception may be to that is my dad, but as they say “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” For both of us, I believe it comes from an unquenchable thirst for loving life! When my oldest sister had her first baby, making me an aunt, I posted a picture of him to social media less than an hour after he was born. He was here! I was an aunt! I was so bursting with pride over him, I failed to realize I stole the announcement of his birth to the world from his parents. Whoops. Still sorry about that one, Britt.
