Description

Have you heard the news? We’re expecting baby #2! 

James & I are planning to welcome a little boy to our family in February 2024. We’re so excited. 

In this life update episode I share all - how I knew it was time to conceive, our intimate conception story, finding out I was pregnant, and the way we surprised our family with the news. 

I also open up about fears and desires for this second journey through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum - as well as the challenges I’m anticipating. 

Lastly, I share how James and I are preparing our relationship to weather the storms of having more children - and how we’re continuing to deepen into parenthood together.
