The Saucey Scoop: Rock-a-bye baby
http://falling-into-me.blogspot.com/2015/04/rock-bye-baby.html
Sunday, April 26, 2015. Tonight, I rocked Nicolas to sleep. So, tonight, I rocked Nicolas to sleep. He gently settled his head against my chest and I felt his body relax as I swayed side to side. And as I hummed, his eyes began to roll back and his eyelids fluttered until they became so heavy they shut. His breathing began to steady. My six month old had fallen asleep in my arms. I held him tight, closed my eyes and inhaled his sweet, sweet baby scent. Tonight, I rocked Nicolas to sleep. So, new mommas, ...

The Saucey Scoop: tonight
http://falling-into-me.blogspot.com/2013/09/tonight.html
Friday, September 20, 2013. My babies are sound asleep. David must have nodded off with Emma because he put her to sleep and never came out of the room. I'm all alone in our living room, typing and intermittendly staring at our tall ceilings. We have tall ceilings. And a living room. And a kitchen. And a back porch. We bought a house. A beautiful, new house. A beautiful, new house that we got to see being built from the foundation to the rooftop. I am grateful and undeserving of such a house. I don't qui...

The Saucey Scoop: Lucas is one
http://falling-into-me.blogspot.com/2014/03/lucas-is-one.html
Friday, March 7, 2014. My sweet baby boy is one year old now. A few nights before his first birthday, I walked into the bedroom and David was holding him while he was sleeping. All I could think about was how blessed my life has been by both of them. I saw David give him soft kisses on his forehead. All I wanted to do was to take Lucas from him so that I could do the same, but I resisted and I watched instead. He is sweet and loves to gives hugs and kisses. He is laid back. He's got 8 big, pearly white t...

The Saucey Scoop: her face
http://falling-into-me.blogspot.com/2013/08/her-face.html
Monday, August 12, 2013. Do you see her face? Every morning, she runs into our bedroom as soon as she wakes up and snuggles up next to us. Every morning, she hugs Lucas and says, "Good morning, sweet boy. I missed you.". Every morning, she kisses him ever so gently. And every morning, I get to see her face. She closes her eyes, leans in to Lucas and just takes him in. Sometimes she smiles. Sometimes she just smells him. Sometimes, she gives him 'nose kisses.'. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Saucey Scoop: Emma at four
http://falling-into-me.blogspot.com/2013/09/emma-at-four.html
Friday, September 20, 2013. Our family has been in a deep transitioning period. We have a new family member. We moved in with my parents while our house is being built. We both have new jobs. And in all this change, Emma has adapted well. She always does. She is very flexible. She's about to start attending preschool twice a week. And somehow, I know she will enjoy it. I hope that you continue to find the humor in everyday situations. I love you forever. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Walking Tall, ...

The Saucey Scoop: Kindergarten
http://falling-into-me.blogspot.com/2014/08/kindergarten.html
Sunday, August 24, 2014. My sweet Emma, you are sound asleep in our bed. My heart hurts just a little bit and letting you sleep with us is the only way to ease my pain. Now, my soul is distraught as I send you off on your new adventure. I desperately want to hold you tight, but it's time that I loosen my grip. I'm conflicted and surrounded with questions. Did I pour into you enough? Did I enjoy every moment I could with you? Did I love you the way you needed to be loved? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Saucey Scoop: four months
http://falling-into-me.blogspot.com/2013/07/four-months.html
Monday, July 8, 2013. My little man is four months old! Lucas is so precious. This past month was a big one for us because he started rolling over. He did it one day when I left the room and then didn't do it again for two more weeks. As I was fixing Emma's hair, he just rolled. I scared everyone in the house because I started screaming! When he nurses, he always searches for my hand so that he can hold it. I still exclusively nurse and we are at the point where it is easier to nurse than to bottle f...
