Mamagrayhound Mugswap 2016

It's that time again!

Time for my annual Mugswap!

I love doing these swaps, especially right before fall! It's always nice to have a new mug to drink coffee, tea, or hot cocoa in!

If you have a Facebook, please pm me on facebook and let me know you'd like to be added to the event!

It will provide you with all you need to know about the swap, the link to join, and I've asked for you to create a wish list there!

If you DON'T have Facebook, or have no idea what a Mugswap is, here's some info for you!

Please use this link to signup for the swap via Elfster!

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A FACEBOOK AND CAN NOT JOIN THE EVENT PAGE ON FACEBOOK, PLEASE BE SURE TO CREATE A WISH LIST ON ELFSTER OF THINGS YOU LIKE. THIS WILL PROVODE THE PERSON WHO HAS YOUR BAME TO LEARN MORE ABOUT YOU AND ENSURE YOU GET A MUG YOU LIKE.

Things to remember:

2. You may choose if you would like to remain secret, or let your person know you have them.

3. Sign ups close Saturday, August 27. I will draw names same day, by 11pm EST. Once names have been drawn, Elfster will notify you via email who your name drawn is.

4. Mugs will need to be sent out NO LATER than September 30.

5. PLEASE ONLY SIGN UP IF YOU INTEND TO SEND A MUG!!!!!

6. You may send more than a mug if you'd like, that is up to you. All that is required for the swap is a mug ☺️

7. I would love to see your mugs when you receive them! Post them here in the group, and/or use the hashtag #mamagraysmugswap2016 on social media!

8. This swap is currently only US only. Sorry internationals!

9. I’m hosting this swap as a fun way for people to connect and have fun swapping a mug. However, I can’t be held responsible for others actions. I like to believe everyone will be fair and only sign up if they intend to swap a mug, but there is always an off chance that someone is dishonest

9. If you have any questions, feel free to DM me!

Happy shopping, and I hope you guys have fun!

Plans may Fail, but God doesn't

I have decided to not go in to much depth about the passing of Sadler, but I do want to write about it. Writing is very healing for me. The following blog speaks of infant death, please only read at your discretion. Sadler's tiny body reacted negatively to the surfactant that was administered to him to help with the maturity of his lungs. His vitals were stable, until he was given the first dose of those steroids. The first call to come down to the NICU was terrifying. What's even more terrifying is walking in to the nursing staff and the neonatologist reviving your child. Chest compressions and intubation. Stats dropping to a low, low. Loud noises from machines going off. Sitting there, unable to do anything as your child lays there helpless and lifeless. The hospital chaplain approaches and asks if we would like to pray, and of course being a family of faith we do. We cry, and we pray. We pray, and we cry. I text my best friend, Shannon, and asked that she

VBAC Birth Plan

It has been over a year since I last sat down with my laptop for a blog. A LOT has happened. Most people who read these blogs are people who keep up with me frequently, so I won't bore you with some excessively long post about what we've been up to. The biggest thing though, is that we are expecting again! And we are only a little less than 2 weeks away from the delivery of our baby GIRL. I thought I would want to sit down and blog all about pregnancy after loss, and all the highs and lows that come with it. But the truth is, I've just really enjoyed being a little bit more low key with it. We've decided she is our last baby, and my husband took permanent measure to ensure that (love you babe). We announced the pregnancy publicly via social media after we found the gender out around 15 or 16 weeks. I am planning to have a natural VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean), with the hospital that we delivered Sadler at, which is also where Hasting was born

The Natural VBAC Birth of Daragh Wren

On Saturday morning, 12/14, I started having slight bloody show. I also had frequent bowel movements, which can be a sign that labor is near. I continued the day cleaning house, and doing all my normal daily routines. Saturday night, I ended up not getting any sleep. I slept for about an hour. I was having irregular, pretty strong contractions, that kept me up. However, I knew it wasn’t true labor. Sunday morning, 12/15, I decided to call Chad’s mom and ask her if instead of taking the kids to church, if she would come to our house and sit with them. Because of the intensity of my contractions, I wanted to get out and walk. She came over, and Chad and I went to Aldi and got groceries, and brought them home. We left again and went out to the mall. We had lunch, and then we walked the mall down and back. When I got back, I did a PARTIAL miles circuit, and got on my ball doing a few different exercises to help baby descend. Chad’s mom left, and I got in bed. Around 10pm I noticed
