Introducing my baby boy Sage Wylder! Sage was born at 12:27 am on January 31st via C-Section at Chandler Regional hospital after 3 days of labor. I am so thankful that he is here, safe & healthy. He is an Aquarius and I’m a Cancer so we are both water signs! I never thought I would have an Aquarius and I can’t wait to see what his personality is like in the upcoming years. Sweet baby boy was in the NICU for 3 days and after a week of recovering at the hospital, we were able to come home. I finally got the chance to shoot some newborn photos of Sage at 2 weeks old! My mom helped me shoot a lot of these photos and the rest I shot myself. I love how sweet he looks and I will definitely cherish these photos of my baby forever!

I couldn’t resist doing a Valentine’s Day themed photo shoot with newborn baby Sage. He was only 12 days old when my mom shot these photos of us, such a little guy! I wanted to keep the photos simple so I picked up this $4 Valentine’s balloon from Safeway as a prop and we drove around till we found a white wall. Sage wore this rusty adorable jumpsuit his abuelita bought for him at a boutique in Eastern Washington and I wore a coordinated, retro style look with new pieces from Sezane. We had about 15 min to shoot before baby boy get fussy which was just enough time to snap a few cute photos that we will have forever. The perfect way to remember our first Valentine’s Day together!

At 41 weeks of pregnancy, I still wasn’t dilating or having strong contractions. My doctors wanted me to be induced before 42 weeks, so they scheduled me for an induction on Sunday January 28th at 10 pm at Chandler Regional here in the Phoenix metro. I was disappointed because I really wanted to be able to go into labor naturally, but I was also worried about waiting and any complications that could arise if I did. So my mom and I packed up the car and headed to the hospital with as much positivity as we could muster. I was excited to know that at least we would be leaving with baby boy. Unfortunately, everything that could go wrong with my labor, delivery, and everything that followed after, did… In this blog post I am sharing a recap of our birth story!

I’m so excited to be sharing a reveal of baby boy’s nursery! i’ve always dreamed of having a beautiful nursery for my first baby and I’m so happy with how it turned out. I was able to partner with some amazing brands on the furniture, was given some wonderful gifts from my baby registry, and a lot of the decor was thrifted. I was going for a neutral, desert boho feel and I think I accomplished just that! As I am writing this we are a week away from his due date which is so crazy. I can’t wait to see my baby boy enjoying this space I decorated for him.

I decided to put together a little guide with my top 15 baby registry must haves for all the new mommas out there like me! I watched SO many YouTube videos and read several blog posts researching what other moms out there said were there must haves as well as items to leave off because I really wanted to make sure I had everything I really needed on my registry. Of course this list/these items will vary from mom to mom and their preferences and not every single item I am including is essential. This is just supposed to be a helpful starting place!
