I’ve been secretly telling myself, “you’re in the homestretch” for a while, but now, I actually am. ONE MONTH TO GO!!! Or probably less if being induced at 39 weeks ends up working out. As much as I can’t wait to feel myself again, I’m trying my best to soak in every movement and just […]

My husband and I recently took a trip to Newport, RI, a quaint, coastal town about an hour and a half outside of Boston, and we had the greatest time together. It was a breath of fresh air to spend time just the two of us, and I can’t thank both of our parents enough […]
