My world is going to change in a matter of days.
At any moment I could go into labor and shortly thereafter be looking into my baby’s eyes.
The anticipation is unbelievable. Is this my last trip to Target pre-baby? Am I going to start feeling contractions tonight? Shouldn’t I take the time to blow-dry my hair just in case I end up going to the hospital later today?
This major life milestone is different than many; it’s unlike getting married or graduating college or starting a new career. It’s inevitable, yet unknown.
It’s going to happen, but when is the ultimate question. There is only one that knows.
I’m living my life in constant anticipation.
I’m on the cusp of entering my new life.

Kaley! After seeing Courtney two weeks ago I keep thinking of you… My advice 15 months into this whole adventure… Get some Paula Dorf ‘Baby Eyes’ Enhancer eyeliner stick and the ‘Special Camouflage’ concealer (only comes in one color). Together they do wonders for any under eye circles
congrats and all the best!

i remember that feeling…so many different emotions going through your head all the time (and the hormones don’t help matters;).
have you had any “symptoms” yet…mucous plug, nauseous…etc.?
