Beautiful Wedding..





This weekend my sister got married to a wonderful man named Adam. The wedding was perfect and beautiful. Braxton was the ring bearer and I was a bridesmaid. Braxton had a couple meltdowns, but he did as good as he could. He just was having an off day in the beginning. It probably was from the not getting enough sleep from the night before with the rehearsal dinner. He was just not up for taking pictures which was super frustrating because here we were out on the Notre Dame football field and everyone was working so hard to get the kid to smile. Luckily we ended up getting him to work it out and got some great photos. You never know what you are going to get with a 4 year old. However, the best part was Braxton walking down the aisle with his cousin Brenna. They were soo cute. Braxton just kept talking to Brenna the whole way down the aisle and had everyone laughing and smiling just because they were adorable and your typical 4 year old kids. At the end I was really proud of how he did and grateful that we made it through.

Now we are back to reality. Braxton started back at preschool this week and I have been trying as hard as I can to take it easy, which is not easy at all for a woman who is always on the go. Even at the wedding when I wanted to dance my body kept saying nope. It is hard for me to stand still, but I am learning that it is something that has to be done for the sake of my child. I am very thankful that I have a great son who is very patient with me and a dog who has learned to deal with me as well. Braxton and Maize are the best of friends and are learning to help me out. My husband has also been great. I have to be honest I feel super guilty when I cannot do things, but he is the one always reminding me it is ok. For example, I had to drop my micro class this semester because my doctor thinks I will be put on bedrest if things keep countining the way they are going and it would be in my best interest to take things online. That was super hard for me to do, but I was able to add classes online towards my nursing classes so may be it is a blessing in disguise. I guess if anything I have learned through this pregnancy it is rolling with the punches. At this point it is all I can do and I am just grateful to have a great support system. I keep telling myself it will all be sooo worth it and I know it will:)
