My Emotions Before Having a New Baby

December Bucket List

The Best Christmas Cookies Ever

The Ultimate Hospital Bag Packing List (Third Pregnancy)

40 weeks + 1 ✨ After four cancelled induction ap

40 weeks + 1 ✨ After four cancelled induction appointments, I’m not my regular festive spirited self on this fine December evening. I’m on edge waiting for a phone call twice a day, frustrated, and whatever word means “beyond uncomfortable,” well that defines how I’m feeling.
.
I am truly thankful that I’m healthy (and baby too) so that we aren’t an emergency medical induction… but if I hear “Maybe you’ll go into labor on your own!” one more time… I’m gonna turn into an angry elf.

The end of pregnancy is hard - as is going past a due date when you think you’re having a baby days before it. Be kind towards pregnant ladies - they can be extra sensitive - and sometimes just saying, “I’m sorry” is good enough ♥️

It’s not an appreciation post… but it is an appreciation post. ♥️ It’s been a very long bumpy road since we found out we were expecting another Houston baby - 254 days to be exact. He’s stood by my side through A LOT and kept me sane when I felt far from it. Waiting on HCG levels, bloodwork, genetic tests and ultrasounds was so stressful - then preterm labor, placental abruption, and a possible pulmonary embolism? Plus two trips to the ER - I’m not quite sure how he stayed calm, but he did, and he helped me from losing my mind too 😳 Even though he sings me annoying songs about going to the hospital when we are told they have no room at the Inn, he is the comic relief and peace in the storm we all need in our lives. I love ya @b__houston (just don’t bring up which sporting events are on t.v. any of the next few days when we could be in the hospital or I may roundhouse 🦵 you). 😘

December is here! Not only is it the most wonderful time of the year, but it’s finally BABY month. She has no choice but to come out now! Every December we look forward to our family bucket list, but this year will surely be the best. Here’s what’s on our list…
⭐️ Baby A will be born
⭐️ Annabelle will turn 8
⭐️ Baking our favorite Christmas Cookies
⭐️ Dropping off Holiday Cheer cards at the houses with our favorite light displays in town
⭐️ Maybe seeing some more ❄️
⭐️ Watching ALL the Christmas movies together (and seeing the girls’ reactions as they understand them more)
⭐️ Wrapping and giving presents (love to do this)
⭐️ CHRISTMAS EVE AND CHRISTMAS DAY traditions
⭐️ And so much more.

Every year I say we find the perfect tree 🌲 and this year I do agree… She’s a beaut. 🎄Picking out our Christmas tree for the last time as a family of four was extra special… as was talking about the origin of all the ornaments we decorated her branches with.

The house is officially Christmas ready for Baby A to arrive 🎄
