Sweet boy, I am all sorts of behind on your blog posts but I did remember to make your 8 month board and take pictures; I feel like that counts for something (maybe backdating this entry will help…let’s all pretend it isn’t 11/21)! And while we’re on the subject, this 8 month madness felt familiar…… Continue reading Happy 8 Month, Frederick C III!

Happy 7 Month, Frederick C III!
I missed your true 7 month mark so what better day to celebrate than on the first official day of Fall? I’m getting ahead of myself but I cannot wait to share my favorite season with you! I have a feeling you will love the crunching leaves the best! And in honor of that, I…… Continue reading Happy 7 Month, Frederick C III!
Happy 6 Month, Frederick C III!
I’m behind again but your 6 month celebration fell at the beginning of an amazing time in the UP so it felt right to postpone this post! It was your very first family reunion (held every three years) and it was well worth the wait! You were the perfect little traveler through car rides and…… Continue reading Happy 6 Month, Frederick C III!
Happy 5 Month, Frederick C III!
This is getting a little ridiculous, little love. Slow down! You shocked your family and your teachers with a new tooth this past month but to look at the pictures here, no one is surprised that one tooth so quickly became two! You are a constant pool of spit up and drool and we are…… Continue reading Happy 5 Month, Frederick C III!
Happy 4 Month, Frederick C III!
You little weed! You graduated into size 3 diapers and just started rolling over at the end of this month. You’re starting to sit up when we hold you but you show no signs of slowing down the spit up! Doc calls you a “happy spitter.” In what started as an attempt to curb the…… Continue reading Happy 4 Month, Frederick C III!
Happy 3 Month, Frederick C III!
Three months flew by so fast I almost missed it altogether! This was a big month of transition, Freddy. You mastered the art of sleeping through the night before you reached your first day at daycare! We have quite the morning checklist these days but you sail through the morning routine with ease. Your teachers…… Continue reading Happy 3 Month, Frederick C III!
Happy 2 Month, Frederick C III!
Two months old! How time does fly! Thank you for answering the challenge of earning back your birth weight! You’ve now moved past size 1 diapers and are pushing into 6 month clothes. You’re as big as some of your friends who were born months earlier but not nearly as strong when it comes to…… Continue reading Happy 2 Month, Frederick C III!
Postpartum Self Care
The conversations started well before I became pregnant with my son. They came up when people asked me how I felt about pregnancy and about the 4th trimester and about the first year. They came up when one of my friends announced she was pregnant and again when her beautiful baby was born. I was…… Continue reading Postpartum Self Care
Happy 1 Month, Frederick C III!
Baby Freddy, how are you 1 month old already? You are the sweetest little boy, content to sleep or silently take in your surroundings when your basic needs are met. In fact, your go-with-the-flow attitude had us fooled into thinking you were getting enough to eat when the scale proved otherwise! Let’s get you back…… Continue reading Happy 1 Month, Frederick C III!
3+ Weeks Postpartum
I have officially entered the phase of postpartum where I spend equal parts trying to find where I set that thing down and trying to remember what that thing is. Also, I baked today just in case you needed a more direct cry for help. It should also be noted that while searching for ingredients,…… Continue reading 3+ Weeks Postpartum
