One Emerald: February 2014
http://oneemerald.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 26, 2014. Why I'm not sad my baby is turning one. I can't believe it! I've said and heard this phrase many times over the past several weeks as Zuzu's first birthday approaches. Time has indeed flown; in less than a month, I'll have a one-year-old. A big girl. A toddler. My baby won't be a baby anymore. And I'm not sad about it. In just a few short weeks, I'll be celebrating my birthday girl. I hope you'll celebrate with us! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

One Emerald: Smile! (No, seriously.)
http://oneemerald.blogspot.com/2013/05/smile-no-seriously.html
Sunday, May 19, 2013. No, seriously.). Zuzu will be two months old on Tuesday, and she consistently gives us gorgeous, sweet smiles. However, if I pull out the camera to capture one, this is the face I get:. She's actually smiling at me right now because she sees the phone in my lap out of reach and out of her face.). So I tried again, and here's what she gave me. Better luck next time! But for now, I suppose these faces are actually quite cute. May 20, 2013 at 6:24 AM. May 20, 2013 at 6:52 AM.

One Emerald: January 2013
http://oneemerald.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 25, 2013. When I was pregnant with Nub, I couldn't even let myself get excited. A dark cloud hung over my pregnancy; I knew deep down (and some days not so deep down) that something was wrong. I never wrote in his baby book, I didn't buy him anything, and I only took a few pictures: one of the pregnancy test, one at one month pregnant, and another at two months. I'm knocking on 33 weeks' door, and I'm still celebrating! July 6, 2012. Hi, second trimester! Bonus "Half Baked" pic! I wasn't ...

One Emerald: What a difference a year makes
http://oneemerald.blogspot.com/2013/07/what-difference-year-makes.html
Tuesday, July 9, 2013. What a difference a year makes. However, my memory serves me well to forever remember another date: July 6. Last year on July 6, I got the best news of my life when the second line turned pink. I was pregnant with Zuzu, and I was so, so happy. This year on July 6, I held my squirmy, smiley, 3-month-old in my arms and cried tears of joy, just like I did when I found out she was a tiny poppyseed speck inside of me. July 6, 2012 vs. July 6, 2013. July 9, 2013 at 7:03 PM.

One Emerald: November 2013
http://oneemerald.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 21, 2013. It's been a while. Back in August, I meant to blog about going back to work after maternity leave and the challenges of finding balance as a working mom. First day of school. Back in September, I meant to blog after Zuzu's half birthday and her dedication celebration weekend. Dedicating our lives to raise Zuzu to know and love God. After Mama's first full week in 5th grade. Have a sweet Halloween! She got chills; my eyes filled with tears. "God is good," she proclaimed. Subsc...

One Emerald: Shattered
http://oneemerald.blogspot.com/2014/03/shattered.html
Monday, March 10, 2014. I just broke a jelly jar, and it was the best part of my morning. This is not because I've had a particularly bad morning. Yeah, it's the first Monday of daylight savings time after a one-day weekend, but I got up early enough, saw a 70-degree forecast, and am enjoying a balanced breakfast of sugary coffee and flaxseed oatmeal. But the jelly jar smashing on my kitchen floor was the highlight. March 17, 2014 at 8:05 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

One Emerald: Yes, her name is Zuzu.
http://oneemerald.blogspot.com/2013/12/yes-her-name-is-zuzu.html
Monday, December 16, 2013. Yes, her name is Zuzu. One of the best things about the holiday season is watching Christmas movies. I've never been one to complain about watching something I've already seen before (or twenty times before). I like to watch my favorite movies until I can quote them, and Christmas movies are perfect for that. ("Keep the change, ya filthy animal! Zuzu and George Bailey. In case you haven't seen it, or haven't seen it yet this year, Zuzu (one word, one capital Z) is main characte...

One Emerald: March 2013
http://oneemerald.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 26, 2013. She's here. Our darling girl is here. Sometimes I just can't believe it: I have a daughter, and she's right next to me right now. And other times it feels like the most natural, normal thing in the world. It is impossible to accurately convey all of the emotions and experiences I've had over the past week, but I'll do my best. Last time I blogged. We were right. When they readmitted me to the ER, I was dilated to a 6. They admitted me to the hospital and I was quickly tak...Dr Se...
