Nantucket Family Photos at Sankaty Lighthouse

So very excited to share our first professional family photos with you guys! So much of my life is documented through photos, it just seemed right to bring in the whole fam. Hope you love them as much as I do!

Everything I Wore in Nantucket

Well well well, look what the cat dragged in! I know it's been a minute, but let's just forget the time lost and focus on some cute looks from Nantucket. Here is everything I wore during our week-long trip over MDW...

My Labor and Delivery Story

I want to start this post by saying a few things before we dive in. First and foremost, mom and baby are doing great. We are happy, healthy, and enjoying our new life together. 
Soon-to-be-moms are so often hit with the worst stories and 'advice' when it comes to L&D. How horrible/terrible/painful it is, how your body will never be the same, how this is the worst part of pregnancy... etc etc. Even with my complications, I felt like it wasn't as bad as everyone made it out to be. And if I could just share that with my past self from a few weeks ago, I would feel a lot better. So I'm hoping that this post can help ease the stress and anxiety for anyone reading this.

My Baby Registry

WHEW! This post turned out to be much longer than I was planning. Now I'm starting to worry that I have *too* much on here. We both have rather large families, so I always think it's best to give people options and maybe err on the side of having too much instead of not enough. If nothing else, this will serve as a good mental wish list of items that will completely cover us for the first year or two.

Crowdsourced Baby Boy & Girl Names

One of my FAQs currently is for boy/girl names that we didn't end up using! I've shared my list a time or two, but I don't like to do it often since we're not done having babies. So I asked you guys for names and you SHOWED UP. Over 250 names for each group and some awesome ideas or thought starters here. I even mixed in a few of our names to the list (but neither our top girls nor boys' name is here!) just to add in a few extra options. Hope this helps!
