FAVORITE BABY ITEMS
59 DAYS UNTIL OUR BABY BOY APOLLOS’ DUE DATE!
&&& I HAVE ALL THE FEELS…giddy, joyful, nervous, anxious, ready, not ready..haha! The past two days I have been going through Michael’s things and deciding on what we will keep, reuse or give away. So I thought I would do a post on what items I couldn’t live without, will most definitely be reusing and what new items we have purchased. ♡
A couple of the new items we were forced to purchase like a new carseat, an additional baby monitor, sound machine, new bottles, crib, crib mattress. But I have treated myself to a couple of new things like this baby bloom bouncer that is just soooo beautiful (shop here)! Ahhh and the high chair I linked by baby bjorn is such a dream! It literally folds up like a pancake..it’s a bit pricey but so worth it in my “hide everything” eyes!! Shopping this time around is soooo much easier and stress-free! I hope this post is helpful!
FAVORITE BABY ITEMS WE WILL BE REUSING
ITEMS I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED OR REGISTERED FOR
Everyone says your second pregnancy flies by but I can’t say it has been for me…maybe it’s because I have Michael and chasing him around all day long has made this pregnancy feel like a decade!!
There are just some pants you can’t give up wearing and for me, it’s the Marina Pant from Ann Taylor.
Pro Tip some of these sweaters are shorter in the front than in the back so if you gotta big bump like me just wear them back wards and they fit perfectly!
This has probably been the most requested blogpost ♡ which delights me greatly because I love Apollos so much I want him to have the same attention Michael did!
During the first couple of weeks, I remember carrying around these sad emotions over my shoulder like I could cry at any moment over anything and everything but it was weird because it had nothing to do with the baby.
My biggest motivator wasn’t so much about having a natural birth, but rather comfort. I wanted my entire family to be there, where they too could be comfortable.
If you search on Pinterest for Maternity Wear the number one thing that comes up are form fitting body con dresses.
As I type up this blogpost I can’t believe we are 29 days away from the baby’s due date. I am humbled by God’s grace as we anxiously wait on our Michael Christopher’s arrival.
Getting Dressed during pregnancy is literally the hardest thing ever! For months I had no idea what to wear; everything looked and felt so awkward.
When my mom snapped this family photo of us, my heart was full it was like we were missing something all along and now it’s complete. ♡
