Catching Up- First Trimester Recap

With Reese and Adeline's pregnancies I did such a good job of taking weekly pictures and keeping track of everything.  This time around things are different.  Life with two young kiddos, school pick up/ drop off, dance class, soccer, Sunday School, Daisies, etc. it is just BUSY! I have tried to keep notes in my phone, and snap pics when I can remember, but it's definitely not as thorough. This is no indication of my love for you, Little Love #3!

Without further ado, here is a recap of my first Trimester!


First postive test on April 17, 2017
