Not that anyone’s actually waiting for these updates, but man, I completely forgot to write about Adeline’s second trimester, and now here we are; we just said hello to 9 months! Geez time seems to be faster now that I’m a mom.
I’m not sure I’ll be able to recall every detail of Adeline’s second trimester but I will try my best! Also, enjoy some never-before seen photos of her. :)
Read MoreAs a mom who loves to read, I obviously want my daughter to learn to love reading as well.
But like most moms (I bet), I got a little stressed out on what books to buy Adeline because THERE IS SO MANY OUT THERE! I honestly was so anxious that I ended up not getting her books at all. Isn’t that awful?! Well, I discovered a solution to this dilemma, and I am so excited to share with you this book subscription service for children called Bookroo!

Read MoreAs a first time mom, obviously I got super excited with cute baby clothes! I’m sure I’m not the only one!
I wanted everything — all the cute clothes that I could buy for my daughter! But now that my daughter is 6 months old, I’ve come to realize that onesies/bodysuits are my go-to clothes for Adeline. They’re just extremely easy to put on a baby, and they’re also very comfortable for them! Have you tried putting on a cute piece of clothing on your baby and they’re NOT stretchy at all?! It was a nightmare for me, so when I learned that cute clothes aren’t all functional, I just kept using onesies for Adeline. I’ve tried a bunch of different kinds, and today, I will be sharing with you my top 5 favorite ones!
Read MoreI cannot believe that I will love motherhood as much as I do! It almost feels like this is my calling. Anyway, this post isn’t about me or my feelings. Today, I wanted to share with you the first three months of Adeline’s life!
She almost 5 months, and it still feels just like yesterday when I pushed her out into this crazy world. Her first three months flew by so quickly, and honestly, most of it is a blur! It’s just a mix of days where I am constantly checking diapers, feeding her milk, and constantly cuddling her — the most fulfilling 3 months of my life yet.
Read MoreBack at the hospital when Adeline was only a day old, the nurse told me that my baby didn’t like her bath at all. That made me feel a little challenged and a little anxious because as a first time mom, the thought of giving my newborn a bath was already daunting so I couldn’t imagine giving a very fussy baby a bath! But a couple weeks after, as soon as her belly button’s all good, my husband and I gave her a proper bath and was pleasantly surprised at how much she loved it! I wonder what the nurses did to her at the hospital. 🤔
Read MoreIf you're a first time mom, or a mom in general, you know the struggle of finding the perfect diaper bag for baby.
There are so many options out there, how can you choose?! Most of the time, we choose the bag that will benefit baby the most ⏤ size, style, color, these all come into play. But if you really think about, we're the ones to actually use the bag; the mommies! So now that we've established who the diaper bag is really for, choosing just got a little harder, especially when there are so many good and stylish diaper bags out there! Let me help you out on that!
Read MoreNow that My daughter Adeline is over a month old, I kind of have a feel for what we both need on a daily basis.
Besides the obvious bottles for feedings, the cute and breathable muslin blankets for warmth and swaddling, the little toys and books for her entertainment, I'm going to share with you a few items you might have forgotten are important on the daily for you and your baby. #PinkAndBlueBBxx
Read MoreNo matter how many books or articles you read on babies, child birth, and everything in between, nothing really prepares you for when it actually happens.
The morning of July 12th, stomach pain woke me up, and I immediately thought, "this is it! it is my due date today after all..." Boy was I so wrong.
Read MoreA few weeks ago, Jorge and I woke up really early for our maternity shoot, and I love how the photos turned out!
We originally planned to shoot the photos at a different location, but the place we had in mind didn't open until 8AM, and we were rooting for a "golden hour" shoot. Because we were already out by 6AM, and there was no way we were going to wait for 8AM because the light will be so different, Jorge took us to a trail where he used to run regularly. It was literally 5 minutes away from our house. Though it wasn't the original location for the vision we had for this shoot, it did not disappoint. :) Enjoy the photos!
