I know I talk about this all the time, but it seems like this whole "growing up thing" is way more emotional with the last baby than it was with the first two. Every little milestone is met with happiness mixed with sadness. I love watching Belle grow and develop, but a part of me wants to keep her a baby forever. I felt that way at times with my ...

A Day in the Life

A Day in the Life

Babies Don’t Keep

My good friend just had a baby....her fourth! And it got me thinking about what kind of things I like to receive after having a baby, especially if it's not my first.
