I'm back! Catch up; baby, Christmas, essential oils

I can't believe I haven't posted anything since April! I've been pretty busy with my little bundle of joy. Being a mother is the best job in the world. I'm so lucky to have such a perfect little girl. 

I could go on and on about her, but I'll stop myself there. Christmas is coming up already. Time flies! I did some shopping on cyber Monday, but I still have my husband to buy for. He's the hardest person to buy gifts for. So if you have any ideas, please let me know. 

So my new obsession is doTerra oils. Which I'm sure you've heard about because it's everywhere, but if you haven't, check them out. I love having candles burning in the house, but since having Addison I've tried to be more clean and get rid of synthetic products.

Diffusing essentials oils is the best. Not only because they smell good but they have a lot of health benefits. As I write this right now, I'm diffusing Serenity while Addison naps.  It smells amazing and promotes a restful sleep. My other favorite to diffuse during the winter months is OnGuard which promotes a healthy immune system. I can go on and on but if you want more information just go to my page.

My little peanut is stirring so I'll make this post short. But I will post again soon. We also moved into a new house, and got a pool! Yayy!! So I will be posting pics soon.

Some pics from my maternity shoot!

Week 34 bump pic!

I love this.

A Baby Asked God.“They tell me You are sending me to earth tomorrow,but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"

God said,"Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you. ” 

The baby said,“who will protect me?” God said,“your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life.” 

The baby said,“God,please tell me my angel’s name.” 

“God said,"You Will Simply Call Her Mommy.”

I can't wait to see the rest!

Happy Mother's Day Mommas!

I treated myself with an early Mother's Day gift. 

Can't wait to use it!

My pregnancy symptoms: Week 25-29

Wow, I have really been slacking on these updates and I apologize. There weren't too many new symptoms with these weeks though, so not much to blog about.

I got my energy back.

Heartburn crept back into my life again.

And because I'm petite my ribs really started to hurt and my stomach just felt squished.

Nothing too crazy. But it's getting so close now that I'm in the third trimester! After knowing a few girls that have miscarried, I am extremely grateful that I have made it this far. And so blessed I've had a healthy pregnancy and baby, so far (fingers crossed) despite having an arcuate uterus ( apparently it isn't bicornuate). But anyways, let's just hope labour goes well!
