Hospital Bag!

Image
   Well our bags are packed and we are ready when ever this little guy is! It's 38 weeks and I've changed what I've packed about 20 times, but I think I've nailed it at this point. We only live like 15 mins from the actual hospital and once little man is born Nick can always come back home and get what we need if anything.  I only planned for like 3 days at the most, keep in mind EVERY hospital is different with what they will and won't supply you with, especially dependent on insurance too. So ALWAYS check with your OB and hospital prior. Diaper bag So first up let's talk baby items. My hospital provides the following: Diapers, t-shirt, blankets, hat, socks, pacifier, swaddles, and formula. Almost everything you need for a baby to go home with. What i'm bringing.  Clothes: 2-3 Newborn outfits 2-3 --0-3 outfits Only because we don't know how big he will be and what he will and won't fit into. Accessories: 2-3 swaddles 2 pairs of socks Newborn and siz...

Guess who's together again!! Literally. the best ever is being with my husband again after 4 long months. Many people think we are annoying but we literally do EVERYTHING together so this was very hard for us. In 9 years we have deployed together and we've managed to do all our training together so far in the military. When we decided for me to commission, we knew this day was coming, but we never realized it would be so hard. I was able to visit him in San Antonio, Texas for a month, which I loved! That's where our love flourished and we grew our lives together. San Antonio will always have a special part in our heart.  Now we're in Florida, which so far is definitely different but we are enjoying it. The humidity is REAL here and the storms are no joke. This pregnant lady had to go for a walk after dinner and we were trying to go to the beach. Well, we were there for 5 seconds and we and 2 weddings got rained out! I felt so bad for the weddings. We waited out the stor...

Workout from home essentials!

What's normal these days? Well for me not going to the gym is my new normal. One...because I moved from Michigan to Florida and have NO idea where anything is. Two, because ....I'm just trying to limit my exposure to the vid. So I thought I would get together a couple of things I use at home to still get in a good workout. The awesome thing is they are all from Amazon too! The pictures are linked! First is the water bottle...if you know me at all I love my water bottles, especially if they tell me what to do! This one is awesome and comes in blue, gray and pink.  https://amzn.to/2ZtEz08 Next, is the collagen, this stuff was approved for me to take by my OB.. please make sure if you are pregnant to check with your doctor before consuming anything I recommend!! I use this in my protein drinks. Collagen is great for joints, skin, hair, and overall health! This one doesn't have a taste and doesn't clump up like some I've tried. https://amzn.to/3fwPqMA This next one is o...

Living Simply by  Heather Leigh Many of you know Nick and I have moved quite a bit in the last five years...let's do a little recap, shall we?   Before                                                                                After 1st house! Good ol' St. Clair. This was one of my favorite towns to live in! It was our very first house together with so many memories. We made a few upgrades in it, fixed the pool in the back but sold it because of a job! Wanted to be closer to work so we moved! Then I graduated from nursing school and applied for a job in Port Huron. This was the house that we bought that was right on the Black River. Before After This was our next house! Loved this house too, right on the river, again we upgraded this house as...
