Thoughts at 39 weeks

Well, we did it you guys. Blake is now considered full term & can grace us with her presence at any moment. As much as this pregnancy flew by, I also can’t remember a time before I was pregnant? At 39 weeks, I have some thoughts: We have a fondue reservation for today. I hope […]

Our Love + Water Photography Session in Maui

I didn’t do the best job of documenting my pregnancy with Aubrey. There were no weekly photos or progress pictures. I think some of the best shots I have are grainy Macbook selfies and candids where I just happened to be pregnant. Since so much planning went into this pregnancy (more on that here), I […]

To my first baby girl

Aubrey, You are so ready for the arrival of your baby sister. Each day that passes, you find a way to bring her up, “When Blake is here…I bet Blake will like…I can sing this with Blake”. You are ready. I’ve been cuddling you a little longer these days. A part of me thinks you’re […]

Thoughts at 20 weeks in

We made it to 20 weeks, y’all! In 20 more weeks, we’ll have a new baby girl to love on. ANOTHER GIRL! As cool as it would have been to have a boy, I’d honestly have zero idea what to do with one. I mean, raising kids is raising kids. Boy or girl, I’m sure […]

Road to Baby Valentine

Welcome back, everyone! I apologize for my absence these past few months, but I promise the reason why will have made the wait worth it: WE’RE HAVING A BABY!

Hawaii & Aulani, Spring Break 2018

Tokyo Disneyland Hotel, Beauty & the Beast Suite!

When we visit Disneyland back home, we always stay at a little motel right across the street. Reasonably priced & close to the parks. For our trip to Tokyo, we yolo-ed out & booked a few nights at the Tokyo Disneyland Hotel. Even opting for a suite in the theme of Beauty & The Beast. […]

CHRISTMAS THREW UP ALL OVER MY HOUSE

The Christmas season is upon us, y’all. Do you love Christmas or do you *love* Christmas? Growing up, my Mom always made the holidays special. If we were poor (we weren’t rich), I’d never know it with the way she spoiled us on Christmas. It wasn’t just the presents though. I have memories of us […]

Tokyo DisneySea 2017

Tokyo DisneySea is unlike any other Disney park I’ve been to. Right away, you are catapulted from anything resembling Tokyo into this water surrounded fort of adventure. I’ve read that Disney Sea is a park more for adults, & for the most part I’d agree. The details in this place are wild, complete with an […]
