Hi! I’m Natalie, and I’m 25. This blog is my baby blog, but it wasn’t always so! In December of ’07, my husband and I lost our first child to miscarriage three days before Christmas. My blog was born from my loss; a place for me to grieve and vent in a semi-private setting that no one knew about. I eventually told a few folks about my blog, and in June of ’08 it became our trying to conceive (TTC) blog. After almost an entire year, and 9 failed cycles of TTC later we still weren’t pregnant. In April of ’09 we decided to give up the “trying”, and just let it happen. What a novel idea, right?

Well, on May 9th ’09 – one day before Mother’s Day – I found myself staring in disbelief at the word I’d been waiting on for so long: PREGNANT!

I am currently 34 weeks (and some change) pregnant with our baby girl, Nellie Rose. She’s expected January 17th, 2010! Our belated little Christmas gift. We can’t wait to meet her.

Thanks for stopping by, and MERRY SITSmas!!!
