August 6, 2017 - Ovia Pregnancy App

I am officially 5 weeks today! I’m starting to feel pregnant. I was up a lot last night with nausea. I’m also starting to feel really tired all the time no matter how much sleep I’m getting. I downloaded this app which is called Ovia Pregnancy. I had Ovia Fertility while we were TTC so I figured why not. I enjoyed the fertility app so I would probably like the pregnancy one too. I’m glad I did because it’s full of information. It gives daily updates with the ability for you to add your own notes, symptoms, and other information. Today it says “Baby P now looks like a tiny tadpole and is approximately the size of a black peppercorn. The heart is already starting to form its different chambers and may even show up on an ultrasound now. Baby P is still growing like crazy, nearly doubling in size each week.” Grow baby grow!!!


I am truly blessed to be at this spot in my life. I never thought I would be here counting my weeks and measuring to see how big my baby is. It’s an exciting thing to finally be carrying life. I go in on Tuesday (8/8) for my next blood draw. I’ll get my beta #3 – kinda interested to see how much it’s going to jump and from there we will be scheduling my 6 week ultrasound where we’ll get to see our little one! I’m so excited!!!

Free Samples and Offers

I wanted to get this out soon as possible as I know the Holidays are upon us and everyone is looking to save some money this time of year. This post is geared towards parents of multiples but if you have singletons please feel free to reach out to the companies below too for some free samples and offers, but please be aware some offers might not apply to you. If you’re like me then the minute your babies were born you were online looking at deals and ways to save money. I came across a lot of blog posts and articles stating if you contact this company then they will send you this product free. I thought how true is this? So I put them to the test. I took many lists from the internet and combined it into one giant list of baby product companies; I then emailed and mailed each company requesting free samples due to the birth of my twin girls. Below you will find the responses I received. Some companies were great, while others were….off putting. I included coupon codes I found o...

Wedding Planner - Emergency Bridal Kit

One question I get often as a Wedding Planner is "What is in my Emergency Bridal Kit?" As a built in service for my brides I provide them an Emergency Bridal Kit on the day of their wedding. This kit includes personal care products, first aid, pain relievers, tools - anything you think you MIGHT need on the day of the wedding. These kits are custom made for each bride as no wedding is ever truly the same but most kits have a common core list of items. Because I have a wedding today I thought it would be a great idea to show you what's in Today's Bride's Emergency Kit.  Tools: Pliers Wire Cutters Measuring Tape Screw Drivers of various sizes (Flat Head & Phillips) Hammer  &/or Mallet It's amazing how many times you can say "I wish I had a screw driver or tape measure with me for this..." It's better to just be prepared because you never know what you'll be called to do or what will need some fixing. Personal...

Buba - Paranormal Stories

Disclaimer - If you don't like ghost stories, unexplained stories, paranormal, haunted, spiritual etc. stories, I would go ahead and skip this post. Paranormal stories, story times, vlogs and cllabs are popping up like crazy on social media, especially on YouTube. Seems like the good ol' ghost stories are back. I would say I'm a typical person who enjoys a truly thrilling ghost story but then immediately regrets hearing them the minute the sun goes down. I grew up reading the Scary Stories to Tell in the dark series and watching "Are You Afraid of the Dark" on the TV just like a lot of kids who grew up in the 80s and 90s and to this day I still love talking about the unexplained. My husband on the other hand will not have anything to do with these types of stories and let's be honest he's probably the smartest person out there for not wanting to get involved. But needless to say because he doesn't want to hear my stories I've got to tell som...
