Summer is here! lets talk my favorite summer color to wear!

Weeeee! Summer is here in Maine! It was a long winter and I personally had enough! Now out comes the sundresses, sunglasses, and open toe shoes! Being pregnant I wont be able to wear some of my cute sundresses or some of my cute tops but maxi dresses are awesome while pregnant! So so comfy! Looking at my closet I just moved all my winter clothes to the back of it and all my summer clothes to the front! Bright is what I see now and I love it! Bright pink, coral, green, blue, yellow, orange and my favorite aqua! Its that bright light blueish color, I'm obsessed! You can put almost any color with it too and its sooo cute! for example a cute orange or pink necklace or earrings! Even black and white goes good with it for example a pair of black shoes or a white bracelet!

Here are some aqua looks that I love! found on pinterest obviously :)

                                                         Big necklaces are my favorite!


Being a mom doesn't mean that you have to always look like you rolled out of bed. I like to look cute it makes you feel so much better about yourself! Some people make excuses and say they just don't have the time but you can make time! it doesn't take five hours to get dressed it takes 2 seconds :) & hair and makeup that doesn't have to take forever either, you don't have to dress or look like your going to prom but a simple everyday makeup and even a cute bun is not any work!

&&&& SHOES! although as a mom sneakers are awesome a cute shoe can make your outfit! For me the only time I wear them is when i'm exercising, going for a walk, playground and sometimes being outside with Caleb but other then that i'm in some cute flip flops, wedges or open toed shoes! & back to the color aqua! look at these shoes...

Last but not least! hand bags, purses and totes! I love myself a cute purse! I personally don't like to spend a lot of money on them but once and a greeeaaatt while is okay if your completely in love with it! but for the most part a $30 bag is what i go for! Back to the mom thing just because your a mom doesn't mean you have to have a diaper bag instead of a cute bag! I actually used a big purse as my diaper bag, you don't need half of the stuff you put in them so it actually makes you have to carry a little less which is a good thing when you also have a baby or car seat to lug around! Then once your baby isn't a baby anymore then you can do a backpack for them! Now before we wrap this up take a look of the cutest MK aqua purse ever!

  Well as I said in my first blog post my husband and I did things a little backwards and had a baby then got married, but we wouldn't change it for the world! Some people think that what we did was the "wrong" way but how I think of it is babies are a blessing from god and everything happens for a reason so to me theirs no wrong or right way to do it. I actually have a little story about this lady who made it very clear it was the "wrong" way. I was at work coming down the stairs from an appointment with a client as I was about seven months pregnant, there was this lady sitting on the couch in our shop she was watching me the whole way down the stairs and continued as I settled up with my client. After my client left this lady who I have never met before point blank asked me if I was married, I was kind of in shock and looked at her and said no she gave me a awful look shook her head looked right down and didn't say another word to me. As I left the shop it was really bothering me that she just did that to me, in my opinion I could have chose the alternative but I didn't and to me that IS the right thing to do! Really I should have been quicker on my feet and told her I was a lesbian or something. But that's when u have to just let it go and know that your a good person and most importantly will shove it in their face by being the best mother ever to that little baby! And that's what I did! :)
  On another note Wayne and I had been together for five years before having our sweet Caleb so to me I was lucky that was the case! We always talked about the day we would get married and have children it just happened sooner then we expected! Finding out we were pregnant wasn't the us being together and being super excited story. I was actually with my friends Ina and Bree when I told them I was like 5 weeks late on my period and that I might be pregnant... so right away they were like "Bri! lets go get a test!" So we went to rite aid got some tests went back to my house, as I took the tests I was shaking so bad hoping to see a negative when it was indeed positive! I admittedly started balling my eyes out, not even knowing what to think, I really just wanted my mom and sister there too but they were in Florida for basketball. So hugging my friends as I was balling my eyes out really helped me out as they helped me get through it. Then us being sad girls we all went and got Ben and Jerry's and another friend Jess came over. I was so worked up that that's when the sickness started! But thank god for good friends Bree held my hair the whole night rubbing my back :) Wayne had been with his friends too that night so I didn't want to spoil his fun so the next day I had him come over and that's when I told him, he was in shock at first then when I started crying he started crying, we just hugged each other and layed in bed for most of the day. I then called my mom balling my eyes out still (yes I looked like I hadn't gotten sleep in a week with horrible puffy eyes) but her reaction was not what I expected at all, she was SO excited! saying "Don't cry this isn't a bad thing at all" her telling me that really helped me out! So after our first baby appointment that's when both Wayne and I started to get excited about this! Something about seeing that first ultrasound completely puts a new prospective on things then as we continued to go the more excited we got! Thennn the day we found out it was a BOY! I have never seen Wayne more excited in my life, he called everyone right away and the rest of the day he had a permanent smile on his face, it was the cutest thing ever!

  As all of the mixed emotions went away and all that there was, was excitement we were so ready for our little boy to be here! It was basketball season for my sister as she was a senior in high school and if anyone knows my family basketball is a big deal! So as I went on leave from work therefore I could attend all of Katelyn's playoff games, lets just say thank god for my moms seat to sit on while on the bleachers! At this point I could go at any day! As Katelyn's team kept winning we kept going to all the games till I had an appointment with my Doctor and at this point I was a week over my due date so I was very very uncomfortable, he told us that we would wait a few days because he knew how badly I wanted to go natural but that he would have to take the baby on the 1st of March if I didn't go before than! So after two long days no baby and the next day was the 1st so I knew I was going to have a c-section witch my Doctor had been warning me about the whole pregnancy because I guess the smaller you are the smaller your pelvis is. And thank god I didn't have him natural because he was 8 pounds and 21 inches long!! Witch I guess is an average size baby but I'm not very big and my torso definitely isn't 21 inches long! But that excitement that we were feeling as I was pregnant was nothing compared to Caleb's arrival! Having a c-section I couldn't do much but Wayne went everywhere with Caleb with a proud daddy smile on his face every second of the way! Having a c-section is so hard and I can't even imagine not having Wayne there! I couldn't cough laugh or anything without it killing me! Caleb didn't leave our site, we didn't want him to go into the nursery so he stayed with us witch probably wasn't so smart for Wayne because he was so worried he sat up all night watching him! As the nights went on we got better and could sleep a little bit more but it was when we finally got to go home that my mom let us get some sleep while she watched Caleb! Ahhhh sleep! That same night we had Caleb my sister and her team won their Class A Eastern Maine Championship! So overall this was a pretty awesome day for our family! :)))

Mommy & Daddy hood started for us! We were proud parents! I'll be blogging some of our experiences being new parents on a later note along with the beginning of my life as a Campbell! :)) 

 

My first blog post!

  Well yay my very first blog post! So exciting! Ever since I read my friend Kim Taylor's blogging posts on Facebook I thought that it was so nice to see her experiences with her little baby Noah and her family's life on Taylor Hill :) Its such a good way to see how people live, what moms do with their babies, what different thing's family's do with their weekends, the secrets to successful relationships and marriages, whats new with fashion, to find new recipes and more! So this is how I will share my way of life and how my little Campbell clan chooses to live!
  I'm sure before you start reading my posts you will want to know who I am and about my family so here is goes! My name is Brianna Campbell in a few short months I'll be turning 24! My husband is Wayne Campbell we've been together since high school and for seven whole years! We did things a little backwards and had a baby then got married but everything happens for a reason and we couldn't change how things went for the world! Our son name is Caleb he just turned two in March! He is the light of our lives, our little Caleb is literately the cutest sweetest little boy ever! We've learned and been through so much as new parents but from seeing who Caleb is becoming I'd have to say I think we're doing okay :) It's not easy being a parent, it's not all laughs, smiles, and cute pictures. Although that is a part of it it's also teething, ear infections, spitting up, messy diapers, sleepless nights and the list goes on. As parents you have to have developed a love for each other that can concur some stressful situations because it can be hard on a relationship at times but if your love for each other is real it also brings you closer together too. Wayne proposed to me a little while after Caleb was born, I always told him I don't want a proposal if its just because of the fact we had a baby together I wanted it to be when he was ready so we never talked about it, so when he did it was such a surprise! (I'll post about how he proposed later :) ) We got married this last September! (i'll also post about that day later as well ) Being married some people say it doesn't change anything but I think it has. We've always been really close but its that bond of knowing your now one is amazing! Lastly we are now expecting our second baby!!! I'm almost five months along now so we will be finding out what this little ones gender is in a few weeks!! So stay tuned! :)))
