The Three Musketeers

As many of you already know, we are expecting our third baby and we couldn't be happier! We are expecting Daniel (middle name still to be announced) Styles on January 17, 2015. I am currently 24 weeks along and everything is going fairly well. I am planning to have my second at home birth and this time I promise to give all the details! I choose another at home birth because I had a great experience with my first at home birth and I honestly don't think I could go back to birthing at a hospital now that I had the opportunity to have been spoiled with a home birth. Yes we are expecting our 3rd boy. The news of a third boy coming into our family was a little shocking at first since we expected a little girl but nevertheless, we are thrilled and we are anxiously awaiting the day our little Daniel arrives.
Here is my baby bump at 20 weeks:)

All the dets about the birth!!

You never know when the baby is going to come and for us, little Daniel came 2 weeks before his due date which was awesome! I was just very ready to get him out. To tell you guys the truth, after 9 months of being so uncomfortable I wasn't even worried about the pain. I just wanted to get it over with!! I have a feeling that is how most women feel.  I had an appointment with the midwife on Tuesday the 30th and at this point I was only 1 cm dilated and the baby was still high. So I wasn't really expecting the baby so soon. Nevertheless, I started to feel contractions Saturday evening. They were coming pretty regular at first but they weren't that painful yet. They felt manageable and I was even doing chores that evening during them. I thought about calling the midwife at one point to give her a heads up but they started fading away after a while so I kinda just forgot about it and went to bed. A few hours later though maybe around 1 am I started to feel more contractions....

Kindness is the answer

            I read an article today about a study that was done by various social scientists at the University of Washington. The article states that SCIENCE has found that   lasting   marital relationships come down to   kindness   and   generosity .   The article caught my attention because of the simplicity of the behavior of being kind. I was expecting perhaps an article about how it is essential to have good chemistry, compatibility, shared interests... Things that I have heard from those around me that are apparently key for a successful marriage… Kindness though? I mean this is just a basic behavior that I try to teach my toddlers. My question at first was, how is kindness supposed to be an answer to a successful marriage? That's when I continued to read...  The article starts out by repeating the well-known distressing statistic of how the majority of marriages fail, with only 3 in 10 surviving. Statisti...

Living in a House full of Blue

            I just wanted to take some time to announce that we are expecting our 4th baby. And I'm going to say it straight out, yes we are having another boy.... :)                                                             Baby Luke Due Aug 31 Apparently I'm only meant to have boys...:) which is OK. I've been meaning to write a post about my life as a mother of 3 boys but for one reason and another I just haven't had the time. This is a good opportunity to give you guys a little idea as to how life is over here. First I want to give you guys an update on Aidan.  I don't even know where to start with him. If there was a perfect child, I feel like Aidan would be it. He is currently 4 years old. Not too sure what his weight or height is but hes pretty tall for his age. Usually he is at the top o...
