My first "baby"

I got this little reminder this past week on Facebook about my first 'baby'. Not my own son, but the first baby I was allowed to be at a birth for. Client A hired me and we had one meeting before she called me and said she was at the hospital. After a mini panic attack and some deep breathing I gathered everything I had and headed to the hospital.

We spent a whole day in the hospital and eventually Mr. B made his appearances! What a beautiful baby. Client A did wonderful and her sweetheart is beautiful!

I think I will always have a special attachment to my first client. I wish them the best and most of all. Happy 2nd Birthday Mr. B!

In the News ~~ Drowning Doesn't Look Like Drowning

A friend of mine shared this on her Facebook status and as soon as I read it I knew I had to post it in here. I hope that it might help you in the future. With it being so beautiful out now and people are in their pools almost all day it is nice to have a reminder of what drowning looks like.

Plus Size Preggos!

Are you a PSP? I'm sure there are a few out there (heck I was for both! I still am plus size). A friend of mine is preggo and she found this site and loves it. I thought I would pass along their blog for anyone who is interested!

Vacation!

Everyone needs a vacation right? Well It's kinda my turn! I'm at my parents house for the week. We always have a great time here, there's a pool, playground, and lots of people who like to spoil my kids!

This time around I hired my cousin to babysit the kids for me in the mornings. I'm working my way through all my old stuff in the basement to have a HUGE sale this weekend! I'm hoping it goes well. Our plan is to sell everything we can! I have buckets and buckets of kids clothes! I hope I can get rid of lots of them, toys and other things!

For that reason I'm not going to be able to update alot but I'm working on it! I've got some new book reviews coming up and some great information for you.

Also, something to think about. I'm giving away some 'discounted' births! I would like to do 2 more discounted births this year (ie before November since I stop taking births on for December). If you are interested please e'mail me and let me know!

Happy Father's Day

This is so beautiful! Kyler, our oldest son, came home on Friday with a gift all wrapped up for my husband. Hand painted frame and the most beautiful foot prints.





Kyler so proud:




The Poem Reads:

Footsteps

"Walk a little slower Daddy"
Said a child so small.
"I'm following in your footsteps
And I don't want to fall".

Sometimes your steps are very fast,
Sometimes they are hard to see;
So walk a little slower Daddy
For you are leading me.

Someday when I'm all grown up
You're what I want to be;
Then I'll have a little child
Who'll want to follow me.

And I would want to lead just right
And know that I was true.
So walk a little slower, Daddy,
For I must follow you!

Happy Fathers Day.
