✨Long overdue life update: It’s been over two

✨Long overdue life update:

It’s been over two weeks since I posted about our pregnancy. At that point we had already been sitting in limbo for weeks... and I got results the next day that my levels were not where they needed to be. I was told we would see miscarriage begin likely in a couple days, but possibly a week later. Sadly it took another 12 days to finally get there.

It sounds so crazy to say out loud, but all I wanted in those weeks was to have some closure. I wanted to have a final answer and be able to move forward, but that didn’t happen like we planned.

I only left my house for appointments (and one trip to homegoods bc... fall) over those 6 weeks. I was so petrified it would happen in public and I just didn’t want to put myself in that situation.

What that led to was spending so much time alone and cooped up in my house. So many of you beautiful souls reached out during that time and I didn’t open the messages because I couldn’t come to grips with my own reality.

When you experience a miscarriage it feels like every single inconvenience in life is a personal attack against you. So I’ve been angry, I’ve been sad, I’ve slept days away to hide from my feelings and locked myself in my room for days upon days. My mental health has been absolutely wrecked. I wish I could say I’m okay and all is well, but I’m just not. Luke and I have been absolutely wrecked by this.

What I can tell you is that Jesus is what has held us together. We know his hand is upon us and we are blanketed in his favor. ✨ We have lots of testing coming up to determine our next steps and know it won’t be an easy journey, but we have made our mission to find joy in this waiting. We know at some point in the future we will be able to declare victory over our suffering.

Let’s take it back to SIMPLE TIMES. 🎶

@spaceykacey put together the ultimate throwback experience in honor of her upcoming album Star-Crossed ✨including a recreation of her childhood bedroom with personal items like her detention slips (girl was a rebel ⚡️). The mock-up 90s grocery store was what did it for me though. 90s babies just know nostalgia like none other. Amiright?

Thank you to @spotify for having me! It was a literal trip back in time. #simpletimesmachine #spotifymusic

Oh sip ☕️ I’m going back to one of my favo

Oh sip ☕️

I’m going back to one of my favorite places tomorrow for a really fun event. It’s been so hard to find joy the last few weeks. Life has basically been a dumpster fire if I’m being honest. But tomorrow is a new day and regardless of the chaos consuming my life... I have so much to be thankful for.

I made a promise to myself to get back to what makes me happy this week and that’s being here, sharing things that make me happy, and connecting with my girls here who make up 99.9% of a positive crowd of 100k+ people.

If I have any advice for you... it’s do your best to not let the 1% of bad take your eyes off the 99% of good.

Life is too short.

When that first sip of PSL ☕️ hits and you jump straight into fall outfits even when it’s 100 degrees outside. 😅

I’ve been stocking up on fall separates and dresses and hit the jackpot at @targetactually ! The new Wild Fable drop has so many fun dress options that work for making outfits that go from a tailgate party to the pumpkin patch. Most pieces under $20. PS: check that jacket in look two 😉! Game day looks with that beauty coming your way soon.

@targetactually is a great place for Fall outfit inspo so make sure you are following along with them!

All outfit details linked in the free @shop.ltk app. ✨ #targetpartner #targetactually @target http://liketk.it/3mIyj #ltkit

When your skincare products have your front AND back covered 😉

I opened up earlier this year about my body acne and how it was ruining my self-esteem. I’ve been dealing with it for over 7 years since it started right before my wedding and truly haven’t gone more than a couple days without active and painful breakouts. I finally found improvement and after two weeks fully cleared breakouts with the new @DifferinUS Acne Clearing Body Scrub. The combo of micro beads, salicylic acid, vitamin E, and glycolic acid must be the secret sauce to clearing body acne because I’m finally ACNE-FREE & CLEAR YA’LL. 🎉

I’ve also been brightening up my skin with their Daily Brightening Exfoliator. I have major skin goals including evening tone and texture and this has been an amazing addition to my skincare routine. ✨

Keep both of these in the shower and gently massage into affected areas and rinse and you’ll be hooked. 🚿

My life has changed exponentially in just a few short weeks. ✨ When we took this photo I was pregnant and didn’t know it yet.

I let you guys know one week ago today that I left an appointment being told I would miscarry in the couple days following. Well, that hasn’t happened. But here’s what has.👇🏻

My labs show the chances for normal/ healthy pregnancy are very low, the chance for possible ectopic pregnancy are higher, and the chance for miscarriage naturally are highest. I go in to check levels tomorrow and will know more then.

I’ve never felt more like I have whiplash from a series of events in my life. I spent my weekend attempting to mourn and bracing myself for miscarriage, but days turned into a full week and I still am sitting in limbo.

I knew I had two options... keep this to myself and go through this more alone than I have to or ask you to please with every fiber in your being be praying for us. There is a great risk with ectopic pregnancy and I truly hope that isn’t my fate here, but I’m not in control.

If you would be so kind to lift us up in prayer it would mean the world to us. We are navigating new, very scary territory and it has been excruciating to say the least. Send this to your neighbor, your church fam, your prayer list, your family... anyone who you know is god fearing and miracle believing... we will gladly take those prayers. We truly believe in the power of prayer and no matter the outcome, we know his will is in our favor and for our good.

We love you fam! 💛

@uscellular continues to blow me away with how they give back to communities and they’ve outdone themselves with their Movies Under the Stars event. ✨Bring the whole family and enjoy a night under the stars watching a family friendly movie and enjoying your favorite popcorn and candy. It’s free to register and truly such a fun and FREE way to safely get out of the house. 🎥

Getting back to what really matters is so important and @uscellular is helping us do that with these events. ❤️ Head to the link in my bio to find out more about these events and when one is happening near you soon! #USCCMovieNight #uscellular

Because we all could use a laugh today... 😂this $Because we all could use a laugh today... 😂this one goes out to our joke of an HOA who just sent us another “Courtesy Notice” for our on trend and hella cute front door color a full year after they sent the first with no follow up on our concerns and the 65 other infractions on their “rules” they have set forth in bylaws happening all over our neighborhood 😂. Apparently the choice of front door color is more important than well kept flower beds, maintained sod in the yard, pressure washed siding, and fences that match and are maintained. Ohhh... and don’t forget parking in the road when it’s a city enforced law to not... but again, our bad. Hell hath no fury like a woman who loves her pink door scorned and hopped up on hormones. Praying for y’all. And to the Karen’s we keep seeing creep on us in front of our house via our ring cam... HI BABE! We see you! 👀 Luke literally said if they come back with a BS reply He might throw a for sale sign in the front yard. I literally can’t make this crap up. 😂😂😂😂 Vote in the comments if the pink door deserves to stay... and feel free to chime in on how you feel about HOA’s who cherry pick what rules to enforce... or not 😂$

I don’t know how to say this without just saying

I don’t know how to say this without just saying it. I’m having a miscarriage.

After a week of uncertainty and taking test after test with faint positives I went in for blood work and it confirmed I in fact am pregnant, but that this will end in loss.

I’m not sure how to be, or think, or feel about this. I’m still in a state of shock and disbelief. Seeing that positive made me so excited. I really thought this was it. So much goodness has happened lately and I thought this was the final stop of a string of wins. I had those fleeting thoughts of how we would announce, if it was a boy or a girl... due dates... all of it. But here we are... awaiting what is to come.

I’m finding solace in knowing I was finally able to get pregnant. I just hope we can finally get to the end of this road soon.

Thank you for your kindness and prayers. Even though this didn’t end how we wanted I know that this is a good sign... and what we are doing is starting to work. I just hope the disappointment and confusion ends soon. This truly is the most exhausting thing I’ve ever gone through in my entire life in every way possible.
