I always knew my wife was one of the strongest woman I know but these past 2 days proved it. I couldn’t be a more proud husband, and now a father to our perfect baby boy CJ 😍

She Popped!

Deena made good on her promise and didn’t post baby bump updates every week! That said, we loved when she did. On July 17, she gave us her 16-week update and looked positively radiant.

By 24 weeks pregnant, Deena was craving yogurt, peaches, and ice cream. TBH, that sounds like a pretty solid combination.

Baby’s First Vacation!

In early September, Deena and Chris headed to the Bahamas for a romantic couples trip. Sure, the former party girl couldn’t drink a piña coloda, but Deena looked so happy, anyway.

Deena wrote that she was feeling “large and in charge” at 30 weeks. LOL. At least her sense of humor remained in tact, right?
