a life made of love...
Our life together has been an unbelievable adventure. We are blessed and excited to share with you our next big adventure.

Celebrating the Bumpling!
BLESSING WAY
Summer 2018
An Appalachian/Pagan tradition wherein our community helps us ready our lives and home for parenthood! Don’t worry – the big community celebration of the “baby shower” will follow after the guest of honor has arrived (please see Welcoming below!)
BIRTH
Late Summer 2018
The Bumpling will be joining the rest of our tribe ex-utero! At a time of it’s own choosing, the Bumpling will come out and explore this big new world!
The Bumpling will be gifting us with many surprises, including a gender reveal at birth! We are so looking forward to getting to know this incredible new human being (80% sure it's human...)
NAMING RITUAL & SITTING MOON
Fall 2018
A private moment welcoming Bumpling to our family upon returning home from birthing, followed by a special time @ home for the new family: enjoying, healing, and napping.
WELCOMING RITUAL & CELEBRATION
Fall/Winter 2018
Laissez les bons temps rouler! Please join us in Welcoming the Bumpling to our tribe!
Following the Sitting Moon, we will be throwing a Welcoming Ritual celebration with nearest and dearest! (It's kind of like a baby shower, but the guest of honor is present and we can now enjoy celebratory cocktails!)
