Are you the reason it took me 3 weeks to write a 600 word blog post? 😉 I finally pushed publish on a blog post about why I kept my pregnancy hidden on social media and for many of the people I work with but don’t see. #mypregnancyjourney #myendostory #ama #ptsdrecovery #infertilityawareness

Yesterday was this new mama’s first day drinking a glass of wine (okay, one ounce) since November! I participated in several zoom tastings with @germanwineusa during my pregnancy where I opened, poured, and “shut” with my @repourwinesaver or used my @coravin to sniff and spit. One of the ones I was most intrigued by as it was a new grape for me, was this #lemberger from @rainerderschnaitmann. It was the perfect bottle to reintroduce me to #wine. A light bodied red great for a September evening, with bright acidity, rainier cherry notes and really great herbal notes of bay leaf and thyme. It also gave me some #twizzlers cherry licorice vibes. Thank goodness for @repourwinesaver so I could revisit and actually drink this wine! •#rieslinglover #germanwine #germanwines #prädikatswein #winesofgermany #deutsche #winelovers #wine #winetime #newmom #momjuice

Starting him young on two important things in Mom’s life: God and Grapes! #newmom He’s already watched one livestream of @thecompasschurch , but we missed this past weekend because #clusterfeeding. You are a tiny miracle that we prayed so long for! #praisejesus. This book is called “God Grows the World” by Michigan author Gary Bower. #puremichigan Will I resume my #winestudy and #winestagram here? Well of course! I’m still alcohol free at this point for nursing purposes, but I plan on diving back into wine study when I’m able to. I tried to do WSET 3 and FWS twice with the wine education body I’ve used for my previous certifications, but they refused to offer online courses in any of 2020. As my $$ was tied up with them for over 6 months before I got a refund, it makes me 😡 to think that time #beforebaby was certainly the best time to do those certifications. I don’t know that I’ll be able to succeed with a new certification while I work and parent an increasingly demanding of my time child, but I’ll still continue my learning. #lifewithanewborn #babymat #christianbabybooks #wine #winebooks #faithful #startemyoungraiseemright (also, you can’t hashtag anything with “lil” before it for a baby because it’s all just rappers names ☺️)

If you had thought that I wasn’t posting much wine content and I looked like I had let myself go, you were right!

This week marks 1 year since these #furryfriends wandered into our backyard looking for food. Little did they (or we) know that along with food, they’d get:
-a permanent place to call home
-spayed/neutered
-rabies/distemper s h 0 t s
-adoption placement for their kittens
-microchips
-a private heated winter home
-a private unheated summer home
-monthly flea treatments
-their own catnip plant
-a new career in permanent vermin control
-a porch full of napworthy lawn furniture
-toys and ribbons
-sisal scratching posts
....and many wanted, and sometimes unwanted, pats and pets.
