I started packing the hospital bag. I know it might seem early but at this point, I'm just not sure when I'll go to a doctor's appointment and be given the news that I should go straight to L&D. Do I think that'll happen? No. If anything, I'm pretty confident I'll still be pregnant until the last week of this month and from there, it's a crapshoot on when

This post is a continuation of some of the baby shower swag Yoda has received. It was quite a bit! Let's check it out:
After doing much research, I couldn't decide which breastfeeding pillow I wanted - the Boppy or MyBrestFriend. I decided to go with the Boppy because a lot of my Mommy friends had it and highly recommended it. Unfortunately, I ended up receiving two Boppy pillows (the

This week's FBM post is another special one. It's a sneak peek from the maternity photo shoot. I'm really anxious to see the rest of the pictures. Our photographer (a high-school/longtime friend of mine) took 260 pics so I really can't wait to see which ones made the final cut!
This picture is pretty emotional for a number of reasons. You may have noticed our Molly Bear, Ethan, is centered

We saw our MFM this past Friday. I also received another NST. Yoda bear is doing fabulous and great! We got a great pic of him when he wasn't trying to cover his face with an arm. He officially has Mommy's lips. Oh dear. My son is going to be a heartbreaker. I need to get out the shovels and shotguns. Forget daddies being protective of their little girls;

I've been totally slacking on sharing things I have purchased for Yoda bear. I will show you a few things I did receive recently via mail or the baby shower.
Let's start off with the major purchase (probably the most expensive one) for Yoda bear - his stroller:
After doing a lot of research both online and word of mouth, I decided to splurge (and really, it was a splurge!) on

This is a letter I wrote to my son after the baby shower last Sunday.
Dear Yoda,
Today was a big day. We had a baby shower in your honor. I finally revealed that I'm pregnant with you and received a lot of support and overwhelming love. I spoke of your brother and you. I decided that I really liked the name, Bogdan, and that will probably be your name when

I have spent a small fortune on this child so far. I'm not really into designer labels or fashions, though I occasionally splurge on a very nice handbag or jewelry. I think it's something I've inherited from my grandmother and mother. They've always had nice jewelry and things, neither believing in putting it on credit. They both figured if they really wanted something, they would save up to afford

I read a recent article on slate.com, regarding how one woman plans to never post anything about her child online ever. EVER. If you've followed his blog recently, you know about my struggle to even post Yoda's picture for fear of public reaction, due to Ethan.
But never posting anything about Yoda...ever? Hmm...that seems to be a bit harsh. It also seems ridiculously unrealistic.
I should probably explain my stance before

I'm typing this post as I deal with morning sickness. Yes, morning sickness. You see, I didn't know I could get morning sickness again in the third trimester. It makes sense once you think about it: as the baby grows, your stomach shrinks, making it impossible for you to have full meals anymore. It does make it possible, however, to get rid of the meals you did have like
