just our day to day life
I haven’t been great about documenting this pregnancy. Meaning, I haven’t. I’ve taken pictures about 5 times, and have a pregnancy journal with 4x more blank pages than written on. This is compared to my pregnancy with Jenson…where I took a picture every single week…even …
The Sunday after Thanksgiving, we had our nephews baptism to attend. The timing was going to be wonky for Jenson’s nap, so we elected to skip mass in favor of making the drive later, so that Jenson would sleep on the way for an early …
