a weekly log of our everyday life
This past Sunday was Easter and we celebrated with Jake’s family! We’ve said this before, but each year Good Friday and Easter Sunday holds more and more significance for us.

On Saturday, we had our big “Baby Planning Day”. We decided to dedicate this day to getting through some of our baby to-do list– like scheduling the maternity & newborn shoot, buying some of the “big items” for the nursery, and making our registry. It felt a lot like wedding planning! To get motivated for […]

The main highlight of this last week was visiting our respective parents for the weekend. Jake went home to see his parents and Cindy went home to see hers. Cindy’s trip was planned weeks in advance and Jake’s was more of a last minute plan. We both had a really great time at our own […]
