Big Announcement!!!!

Clarke LittleAhhh!! I have been dying to share our news. We are having a B A B Y !! Kevin and I couldn’t be more excited that we are going to be parents. I am in my 12th week and have been feeling great aside from being exhausted and experiencing a little nausea here and there. I will most likely be posting bumpdates on Fridays and I will have a post up soon about how we found out this awesome news that our little family is growing!
