This might be the most surreal thing I have ever said, but today is the day our son is due!
It’s hard to express how I’m feeling right now – nervous, excited, scared, nervous, happy…NERVOUS. I honestly can’t believe this is really happening but, ready or not, parenthood, here we come!
For the past couple of months I’ve predicted that the little man will arrive late and, while the day is not over yet, I still feel he won’t be here for several more days. In the meantime I plan to stay busy to keep myself sane. It is the oddest feeling in the world knowing that our lives are about to change forever, just not knowing when, exactly. Like I said, it’s difficult to express how that feels.
IF anything happens this weekend (that’s a big if) I will check in next week to let you know how everything went, and introduce our son! I want to thank you all for the support you’ve shown over the past 20 weeks. Each thoughtful and encouraging comment along the way has made me even more excited to become a Mama to our sweet little boy. You guys are the best and I know you’ll be equally as supportive in the following weeks as we adjust to life with a newborn. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Talk to you soon…here we go!

I made your crockpot bourbon chicken sammies for dinner tonight. They smelled divine while they were cooking, I didn’t have bourbon so I subsititurd fresh orange juice and they were delish. My hubby didn’t like the coleslaw, that’s ok, more for me!
BTW, I hope your little one arrives soon, I asm sure you are dying to meet him!
