ONE Month Old!

August 21, 2017August 21, 2017 CarlyRoseLeave a comment

It’s been ONE WHOLE MONTH (!!!) since little Eli entered our world! The past month has been wonderfully blissful but also extremely overwhelming. Although I wouldn’t classify myself as a ‘rookie’ mom, I’m definitely finding that I’m still a novice when it comes to newborns. It’s been almost three years since we have had a… Continue reading ONE Month Old!

Eli’s Birth

August 15, 2017August 27, 2017 CarlyRoseLeave a comment

*I’ve been writing and re-writing this since Eli was about two weeks old! Every time I think it’s finished, I remember a new detail or memory from this day that I want to add in. It’s probably been my longest post to date but for me, it’s important to document every minute detail so when… Continue reading Eli’s Birth

The Boy Who Made Me a Mom

July 18, 2017 CarlyRose3 Comments

To my sweet, wonderful Natey-Nate, As my due date with your little brother approaches, I’ve found myself reliving your first (almost) three years of life with us. In this short time you have changed me for the better. You’ve taught me how to love unconditionally, what it means to put someone else’s needs before my… Continue reading The Boy Who Made Me a Mom

Hospital Bag Check List

July 10, 2017July 10, 2017 CarlyRoseLeave a comment

I know there’s probably thousands of blog posts and websites out there with lists of what and what not to pack in your hospital bag but I honestly don’t see the harm in writing one of my own. It’s always nice to see someone else’s perspective and hear what they found they needed or in… Continue reading Hospital Bag Check List

My Favourite Nate Sayings

June 21, 2017June 23, 2017 CarlyRoseLeave a comment

There was a time not too long ago where Nate was still almost completely non-verbal. At two years old, he knew a few words but still heavily relied on pointing or physical cues to let us know what he wanted. I’m not going to lie, when my doctor suggested he start speech therapy and have… Continue reading My Favourite Nate Sayings

Currently measuring? 33 weeks and 6 days Baby is the size of a? Cantaloupe Weight gain? I think I’m up to around 30-33 pounds right now people keep saying it’s “all baby” or “all belly” but I’ve noticed my face is a lot rounder these days and I’m bordering on having a double chin.

The Boy’s Rooms

May 19, 2017May 19, 2017 CarlyRose1 Comment

I’ll be the first to admit that I am absolutely a sucker when it comes to nurseries and kid’s bedrooms. I love imagining and creating rooms for tiny humans; something about it just brings me joy and happiness. Nate’s nursery will forever be one of my all time favourite rooms in any house we ever… Continue reading The Boy’s Rooms

Hey there! I'm Carly, a boy mom x2 and girl mom x1, wife, cat mom, nurse, lover of all things chocolate, and coffee addict! Five years ago I started this blog as a means of documenting my oldest son's first year of life and as he grew, so did my blog. It's evolved into a space where I share our adventures, document things I want to remember, talk about products and businesses I love to support, and so much more! Thanks for stopping by my little space of the internet!!
