Baby!

I am not pregnant anymore. I never knew how awesome that would be. Its really awesome.
My baby is pretty cute, if I do say so, myself. And she has so far done a good job adjusting to the world.

Here is her first appearance on the first webpage that I called my own. Enjoy, pleoland, Enjoy:

Pretty toes.

I gave myself a pedicure at 39 weeks pregnant.
Its the simple triumphs in life...

In other news I finally hung up pictures and finished Gwen's room:

    Cannot believe she's almost here! Getting so excited! I have something for her room (besides adoring and jealous comments :) ) but it's not ready yet...I'm going to get it there soon though!

    The fact that you can give yourself a pedicure at 39 weeks is VERY impressive to me. I was aware I had toes still in my last month, but there was no way I could even think about reaching them. Good job! :)

Watermelon!



This baby is about the size of this watermelon, maybe a bit bigger.
Good thing she is lighter or I would really be weighed down!

FAN-tas-tic

The last three years have gone by fast but they sure have been good. I am looking forward to a bunch more years of being married to my guy and I am excited about the new adventure we're embarking on as things are about to change drastically. Love you.




P.S. Look! Proof that I used to be skinny! I can't wait to get that (and my favorite jeans) back!!!
