Parents day out 😝 (OK, it was more like 2 hours out but it was soooo awesome)!! Mom is here for one more week & she offered to watch Charlotte so Wes and I could have a day date—she has been so wonderful with taking care of CRT while she’s been here. 💕 While out today, we went to @fulbrookale + @runningwalkerbeer and enjoyed ourselves! Now we’re home pumping, watching football (🙄🤣) and getting ready for dinner! From makeup pics to baby pics—I hope y’all are here for it! 😝😉 Charlotte is totally giving me the side eye here because she wanted more milk…she’s hilarious & so darn cute. 💕 That hand though, right?!?! Today’s snuggles were some of the best. Swipe right to see Charlotte in her element! 🤍🤍 We’re getting the hang of our feeding, napping & pumping schedule around here (it’s not perfect by any means, but we’re working on improving it daily 😉). Mama, Papa & Grandma are soaking up these newborn days because I’m finding out they go by waaaaay too fast! 🥺 Our Charlotte Rose has been earth side for a week now, and man, it’s hard to believe! 🥺 I don’t think you truly understand how fast time goes by until you have a child. Wishing we could freeze in this moment, for sure. 💕 Charlotte is such a lovey girl who hates being swaddled, is a master snuggler & enjoys a real good squeaky cry every couple hours! 😂🤣 We are so grateful we were chosen to be her parents!! (PS. Thank you @claudiara01 for her sweet onesie!!) 🎉 We got to come home yesterday! Hearing that we were getting discharged was the best thing since sliced bread. Firm believer that you heal better in your own spaces! 💕 🏡 But that doesn’t mean we’ve got any of this figured out (I know we’re not supposed to but we are trying). 😉 Thankfully my mom is here to help us—she’s basically a baby whisperer—and it’s just so wonderful to have her support right now! And Wes is the best partner on the planet. Unsure on how I lucked out with him, but he sure does love his girls!🤍 (And Charlie cat 🐱 who was extremelyyyyyy happy to see Papa yesterday lol). SHE gave us a run for our money starting last night around 11:45pm. Mama and baby are healthy, and one day I’ll share the birth story with y’all. 🤍 Wes & I are smitten with this perfect 8lb 1oz human we created. 🥰 Let me formally introduce ya to Charlotte Rose Tucker! 💕 Happy 40 Weeks! 🥳🤰🏻Did a live with @langehair after work, and wanted to document my hair & makeup being done. 🤪 Also, got a call from my doc and the induction has been moved up to next Wednesday 9/8–I’m over the moon 🌙 excited. Not too much longer! Bumpdate: 39w2d pregnant 🤰🏻 & absolutely no contractions or dilation happening round here! 😬 I have my weekly OB apt in a couple days to be checked again, but if everything is still being stubborn, we’ve got a 9/9 induction date (41 weeks)! 📆 No one really talks about how much of a rollercoaster the last couple weeks are-hell, there’s a TON that isn’t talked about in general-but between working a normal schedule, feeling uncomfortable in anything that you do (sitting, standing, laying, breathing, showering, driving), excitement of seeing your baby soon, frustration when nothing seems to be happening, general curiosity about the next chapter of your life…the home stretch can be very tedious and filled with LOADS of emotion. 🖤 I’m sure many, many women can relate which is something I look at in a positive light because I am very grateful for all your encouraging messages as truly help! 👭 👏🏻 As I head into this new week, my mantra is going to be something along the lines of “We are so blessed to wake up each morning healthy & loved & with a roof over our heads, and if today is the day I meet my baby, then so be it. If not, my doctors have a healthy plan for us, and I’m trusting that the timing will be perfect in the end.” ☺️ Showing off my gorgeous Cosmopolitan Cocktail Ring from @amalilyjewellery 😍🤍 Love, love, love unique and affordable pieces of jewelry. Especially those made with love, like this brand is! Amalily is based in London & is the owned by Wes’ cousin Ali! Best thing is that they do internal shipping. 👏🏻 📦 I hope you’ll check ‘em out & follow!
