And the World Spins Madly On

-
Today has been a struggle in my productivity.
 I don't know if it's because I just got back from Mexico a few days ago, and the weather was perfect and my days were spent outside. To now, where it's chilly outside, and my basement apartment is dark and kind of dreary or what, but I'm struggling to do much today.

I think I get SAD, or Seasonally Affected Depression, and Really I need to try to fight that. I need to make myself go outside even if it's cold, and get some sun. I need to make sure I workout regularly too.

Mark Left for School, and I cleaned a little bit, but haven't done much else today.

Here's a song that reminds me of how I'm feeling. Tomorrow I will hopefully have a better day.

Everly Janes Birth Story

  “Although birth is only one day in the life of a woman, it has an imprint on her for the rest of her life”-Justine Caines Jenny (Left)- Ashley (Right) - I love these women!  Everly Jane's birth story. It's long, and detailed. I wrote it for me to remember, and for Everly to read one day, with the hope that my experience can help some other mother, like other moms birth stories helped me. Here Goes...  Making a deal with the Devil Our midwife, Jenny, is well known for helping women achieve the type of birth they say they want. There is a joke among the nurses at Baptist hospital that if you tell Jenny you don’t want pain meds, then you better be sure because you’ve “made a deal with the devil".  It took me a very long time to commit to no pain medication, because I knew no matter how much I begged or pleaded I wouldn’t be getting an epidural. I thought a lot about this…    At my 36 or 37-week appointment I brought up my...

Rykers Grand Entrance: A Birth Story

-

Ryker’s Birth, is something that will forever be a memory I hold dear to me, regardless of how stressful things went, or how nothing went as I had hoped for. It was still one of the best days of my life, because in the end, we have a perfect baby boy. All I cared about was that my child be safe, and once we established that he was, then I was happy. His Grand Entrance As every first time mom does, I anticipated what labor would be like. In my mind I had done well to prepare for it, Mark and I had taken a Hypnobirthing course, and practiced our hypnobirthing relaxation scripts and breathing techniques. I had hired a doula (which is a birth coach) who I considered to be a good asset to our birthing team, she is in training to become a midwife, and has worked at a birth center and assisted with many un-medicated births. She taught us about counter pressures, and other ways to manage labor pains. I had also switched over to the Valley OB Orem Midwife group at 28 weeks, because I...

Danielle Becker Photography Newborn/Family photo shoot

While I was pregnant with Everly I thought about getting a photographer to take family/newborn pictures for us, since we had with Ryker, but since we didn't have extra spending money laying around ( graduate school does this to you) I wrote it off. Well luck would have it that we were gifted again- My friend Amy who has her own Photography business offered to take pictures for us for Ryker, which is honestly one of the best gifts I can think of - unless you need other things for your newborn baby of course!  Anyway, I was so excited about this, and asked around for a good photographer. We got several recommendations for Danielle Becker Photography in Pensacola FL so we decided to go with her.  I really wanted to go to a studio for the pictures, because I just didn't feel attached to our town home, and it seemed like it would be easier to do in a studio.  Danielles studio was beautiful! I was in awe. she  also had countless prompts, swaddles and bows....
