MUST HAVE: These letterpressed IOUs! A collaboration between Christine of Ink*Lemonade and Typecase Industries. Every mom, not just new mommas can use a break every once in a while…I could really use the sleep one right about now. With all the new little ones I know arriving this year, I will be placing my order soon! I mean, how can you pass up mint edge printing. These IOUs would make the perfect gift…even for new dads!

Oh and I’m definitely adding Christine’s blog to my list of daily reads! You should too!

I’m an AUNT again! (Yay, for the third time in seven months). My oldest sister and brother-in-law had their first baby on Saturday, a precious baby girl…welcome to the world, Adelaide (Addie) Grace Reynolds! She is 7lb 13oz, and 21 inches long. So happy that I was able to meet her! She is exactly six weeks younger than Casen. I am so blessed to have such healthy nieces and nephews…can’t wait to get a photo of all our babies together!

Casen had his first photoshoot last Saturday! My friend Katie from college was so kind to squeeze us in. She is such a talented photographer…just love her style. See more photos of baby Casen at Katharine Roberds Photography.

It’s been a week since we brought our little Casen home from the hospital. He is so soft and sweet. It’s crazy to think that I am a mother of two…boys! I was a little worried before, how I was suppose to share my love with both of them, but now I know. It’s one of those things that you don’t have to worry about. Plenty of love to go around! We have had lots of visitors and help from family. (Thank you all!) Today is the first day at home on my own. So far everything is going well. Jax prefers to lounge in his diaper watching toons all day. Every once in a while he will ask. ‘I hode baybee?!…I hode it?’ He is such a good big brother! It took him a few days to figure out what was going on, but I think he’s lovin’ it. The baby (right now) is easy. eat. sleep. poop. He had his days and nights mixed up, but I think we are back on track. Trying to keep him awake is a bit challenging. You would think with all the noise Jax makes, he would have no trouble staying awake…ha! On several occasions I’ve had both boys down for a nap at the same time! Makes me think (just for a minute) two will be a breeze. Breastfeeding is going well. Much different than when I nursed Jax. I’ve been using this app called…iBaby Feed. It helps me stay on top of feedings. Case has been a nursing champ since day one. Casen’s birth story and first photoshoot to come!

Casen’s birth story and first photoshoot to come!

Just wanted to share the wonderful news! Our little one arrived on Saturday at 11:42am…Casen Blake Coggins. He weighed 8 pounds 7 ounces and was 21 inches long. Happy to be home from the hospital today!

39 weeks…yep. Still pregnant. I really never thought we would be playing the waiting game for our little one to come. Only one more week till my due date. I guess I was a little spoiled with Jax coming early. I feel like a ticking time bomb. A beached whale. A swollen one. (Ha! It would be nice to be on the beach right about now.) I’ve never been so ready for something. in. my. life. He will come. He will…on his own time. Until then I will continue to eat as much chocolate as I want!

34 weeks today…about ready to POP! I have no idea when this little guy is going to come. I am getting nervous, well a little anxious actually. My husband keeps saying, ‘It’s too early’. I know. I know. But Jax came early (35 weeks 2 days), so you never know. We are throwing my sister a baby shower (yes, I have yet another sister that is pregnant) this weekend. Hopefully I will still be waddling around…I don’t want to miss it! In the meantime, I have been finishing up the nursery, washing some teeny tiny clothes, cleaning up the car seat and bouncer and stocking up on diapers. I am going start packing a bag of basics this week…just in case. What did you pack in your hospital bag?

I’m an AUNT again!

Yay! My step sister just had a baby boy…welcome to the world, Harley Alvin Michael Cooper! He is 8lb 11oz, not sure of his length yet. Hopefully I can get a photo when I visit tonight. I can’t wait to see him and big sister, London. I wish I could go now but Jax is still sick, have to wait for daddy to come home from work.
