We Decided to Have a Baby!
And we are blogging the whole process!
I’m documenting how we’re building our family!
Major milestones and highlights will be on Instagram, but THIS is where I’ll share more unfiltered details—the decisions, uncertainty, emotional weight, financial reality, etc. I imagine there will be a LOT to learn, and a lot that doesn’t go as planned, but there’s so much to look forward to!
If you’ve ever wondered what this process looks like (or if it’s something you might want someday) I’m going to show the process as clearly and honestly as I can.
If you subscribe, you’ll get a closer look at everything as it unfolds, and your support will go directly toward helping us pay for fertility treatments.
It honestly means so much to us—and it’s helping us build our family, which still feels a little surreal!
<3 Charlie (& Ryan)




YAY!!! Substack is the best. :)
The essays series I currently have up is for LDS parents who are trying to keep relationships with their children, when they are questioning their faith.
I am about to start sharing my journey discovering Heavenly Mother, and becoming a Mom (I am 30 weeks with my first).
So happy to see you on Substack Charlie, and I can’t wait to follow your journey.
