Jax Holden Frankhouser

Born July 13th at 1:54 AM 7 LB and 13 oz

The best most beautiful day of my entire life 



Here I am after 1 year of praying, 9 months of pregnancy, 20 hours of labor, and 2 hours of pushing. My baby was placed in my arms and I completely lost it...the BEST feeling ever.





Daddy is so in love too!!!!






My BLONDE angel. I can't believe I have a blonde baby!!!!!


Everything he does is cute :) I'm THAT mom





So proud to be a #BOYMOM




side notes...

-I am not as sleep deprived as everyone said I would be..I hear about something scary called the 4 month sleep regression..so near future :/

-Breast feeding is going great so far!!

- I do get a shower every day

-Postpartum emotions are real....

-Daddy went back to work after 5 days and we survived.

Friday Favorites!!!




LOL pretty much!!






I haven't done a favorites post in a while..so I figured I would do one right before baby comes!!! 


#1. THIS pillow from Target. This is pretty much a must have if you are nine months pregnant! this pillow gives me tons of back support to where I'm not using my stomach muscles, it will be great for a C-section recovery, also super easy to use for breast feeding. I LOVE IT!



#2.   Kate Somerville's Anti Aging Kit.
Shop her products Here

I specifically ordered the 
- Nourish Daily Moisturizer
-Gentle Daily Wash
-Dilo Oil Restoritive
- Nourish Hydrating Firming mist

** Mine came in a kit sold at the actual Sephora store for 88$ They are listed separately here without the kit. 



I recently decided it would probably be wise to start really taking care of my skin.. usually my skin care regimen consists of a makeup wipe ( Neutrogena brand whoop!), a dollop of Cetaphil on my Clarisonic Mia (<<<----- GET ONE NOW) and moisturizing afterwards. Not terrible but also not great for my 27 year old skin.  After a trip to Sephora and trying out numerous samples I decided to go with Kate Somerville's line and I. AM. OBSESSED. My skin has never felt better and although her products can seem a little bit pricey the outcome is so much better than I would have thought. 
Other product lines that I have found comparable that are a little cheaper are:


All Wonderful!!! 

#3.  These Tanks are seriously SO comfortable!! They are nursing friendly but also so awesome for just an every day tank. I wore mine all throughout pregnancy ( in every stage) they are seamless and form fitting so they give your belly support when it is at the very heavy end stages. I ordered two black and two white and have used them constantly!! I sleep in them, workout in them, and wear them underneath sheer blouses. Awesome

#4.  

Technically I don't really have to write anything because if you are obsessed with OITNB...you just know. If you haven't watched it....GO AND BINGE NOW!!!!! This show MAY or may not be up your alley... I didn't think I would like it at first but I became hooked. I am not gonna lie I may have watched season 4 in two days.  

#5.   This super cute #BOYMAMA T-shirt

I received this in the mail and plan on wearing it home from the hospital!!! I bought it from a super cute Etsy shop called JLL Custom Designs. 
Yes girl moms.. they make a girl mom tee also :)


I think this is all the favorites my *sausagey fingers can type out right now:)

Enjoy your weekend!!!!!
