So you’ve probably heard of this new minimalistic trend – tiny houses, capsule wardrobes, less money on “stuff” and more money for adventures. For me, the “ah, ha” moment was the fact that I could never keep up with the clutter. I spent my entire weekends cleaning our house, and there is only two of us! […]

If you follow me on social media than you saw our announcement last night that we are having a sweet little girl. We were already expecting this news but it’s nice to know for sure. Between the morning sickness and the way I was carrying all the old wives tales pointed to girl. Also, as […]
These past two weeks have been some of the hardest in my pregnancy. I had to get IV fluids last week and then this Monday I got the worst migraine i’ve ever experienced (unmedicated, I’ve been getting almost daily migraines since the 5th grade so that’s saying something). My headaches have been getting better with […]
I can’t believe we are already at the half-way point and i’m 5 months along!! It’s actually flown by. Today we will have our 20 week anatomy scan and find out Baby P’s gender! Most people think it’s a girl because of how sick i’ve been. We are planning to do a gender reveal photo […]
So my post on Monday was a little too ambitious. I actually wrote that post a few days prior and set it to upload as we had company coming into town. I was feeling pretty good throughout the weekend and started getting a little too confident. Sunday I had a McDonalds sundae and in-n-out burger […]
I’m 19 weeks and I think i’ve finally turned a corner! I think it’s been a full week since i’ve gotten sick. I’m so thankful! Last week was a busy work week and I had to be on set a lot. I was able to sneak in a photoshoot at one location during some down […]
#PantryGoals from The Home Edit! Week 18 and baby prep is in full swing! I have a long list of projects I want to accomplish before Baby P comes. One of the most pressing was organizing our pantry and kitchen so we’d have space for new baby products. My Parents & Sister came down for […]
Baby Registry & New Mom/Baby Books
By mariapelletier on February 23, 2017I’m writing this post from my bed… which is where i’ve been the last 5 days in a row. I was starting to feel better the last few weeks but seems like i’ve taken a turn for the worse. If i’m bed-ridden I won’t throw up. I also just have absolutely no energy. If I […]
16 wk bump work style & favorite maternity fashion
By mariapelletier on February 20, 2017I’m in that awkward stage where i’m showing but the “bump” still looks more like “budge” the “is-she or isn’t-she” stage where it’s not totally clear if it’s a food baby or a human baby. Wearing loose fitting clothing just makes you feel even more big and uncomfortable with your changing shape and i’d love to wear more […]
We just booked out babymoon and i’m so excited! We’re going to Maui in mid-April. I’ll be 6 months, enough to have a belly for some cute photos, but not so pregnant that i’m feeling more like a whale… hopefully… With Zika, our options for a babymoon were limited. My parents generously gifted us a week […]
