A lot has changed since I last posted…for starters I finished growing that little bean that stole my appetite. Now that I’m in my mommy groove, I want to get back to the blog and catch up on so many posts I intended to write. So, here’s a snapshot of what I need to catch you up on. I’ll be writing and filling in the details over the next few weeks or so.
Little by little, I grew and I grew.

25 weeks

32 weeks

36 weeks

37 week maternity portraits

Full-term, just waiting on a baby to arrive
So I cooked a freezer FULL of tasty food to sustain us for at least a couple of months while I waited. More to come on this nesting project.



And then on July 27 at 3:03 am he arrived…

Meet Mr. Jackson, all 8 pounds, 4 ounces and 20 1/2 inches of him!
And I fell in love, immediately.

And so did his daddy.
And little by little he’s grown and grown and stolen our hearts more and more every day.

"Hey! I need some help here!"

"So THIS is where all the yummy vegan food gets cooked?"

"Yawn"

"Hey Momma, get to work! You got some catching up to do on that blog of yours."

"Now, I can rest easy knowing there's at least a few pictures of me up on your blog."
That catches you up for now. I’ve got a lot more to share about my vegan pregnancy, becoming a mom, my freezer frenzy, and more. Stay tuned!
