 HAPPY SECOND BIRTHDAY TO MY LITTLE GUY ELIOTT!
AMAZING TO ME HOW TWO YEARS HAVE QUICKLY PASSED. THIS REALLY IS BANANAS. I MUST ADMIT, ALTHOUGH I SWORE OFF BIG PARTY CELEBRATIONS AFTER ELIOTT'S FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTY, I WAS INSPIRED BY HIS OBSESSION WITH BANANAS TO THROW HIM A BANANA THEMED BONANZA. I STARTED PIECING A FEW THINGS TOGETHER ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO. WANTED TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX & MAKE IT FUN + MODERN. I MUST HAVE FORGOTTEN HOW SLOW YOU GET IN YOUR 8TH MONTH OF PREGNANCY BECAUSE I WAS THIIIIIS CLOSE TO CANCELING A FEW DAYS BEFORE + DOING SOMETHING WITH JUST ELIOTT. BUT I KNEW I WOULD REGRET IT...+ NOW I'M SO GLAD WE DID IT. ELIOTT HAD THE BEST TIME WITH OUR FAMILY + A FEW OF HIS TODDLER BUDDIES. NO FANCY PHOTOS THIS TIME AROUND BUT WANTED TO SHARE SOME DETAILS BELOW!  OFFICIALLY IN MY 8TH MONTH & STARTING TO PREP FOR POST DELIVERY. GOING THROUGH MY FIRST DELIVERY TWO YEARS AGO, I HAD NO CLUE AS TO WHAT WAS ABOUT TO COME IN MY RECOVERY PROCESS. SUFFERING FROM A FOURTH DEGREE TEAR, I DID MY BEST TO HELP MY BODY RECOVER QUICKLY. IT WAS BY FAR THE HARDEST PART OF MY CHILD-BEARING EXPERIENCE. IT TOOK ABOUT 10 DAYS FOR ME TO FEEL SEMI-DECENT...OR EVEN SIT NORMALLY!
