The first trimester … aka the three months you spend adjusting to the idea that you are growing a person while simultaneously learning about all the ways you could wake up pregnant one day and not be pregnant the next. You alternate between sheer bliss and complete and utter fear. It’s the time you Google …
Sleep is an amazing, precious thing that I miss dearly. So is pooping. My unborn child hates Mexican food but loves Taco Bell. I’ve already failed as a parent. Everyone is far more annoying than they used to be. Emotions – good or bad – are completely beyond my control. Chocolate milk is the greatest …
Any one who knows me knows I can be stubborn to a fault. I’ve accepted it and apparently have passed this along to Baby AJ. We had our 12-week ultrascreen (genetic testing and ultrasound to check for Down Syndrome) on Friday, Jan. 9 and I was more excited to see the baby than worried anything …

The beauty of a Las Vegas wedding … little to no planning. I am not worrying about invites, seating charts, bridesmaid dresses, tuxedos, etc. Instead, we are able to focus on us and our plans for the next year or so, which include the adventures of house buying and babies. This also, of course means …
2014 is off to a kick tush start! Life, both personally and professionally, is on a roll. To recap … got engaged, planning a Vegas wedding for 6.14.14, starting house hunting and family planning and starting a new chapter in my career.
