Looking forward to: One last week (hopefully!) of being pregnant! A fun birthdayday party at the orchard this weekend, and my parents arrival on Sunday!
**Well, I obviously never got this post up, because little Miss Ellie decided to come 4 days early! This post was supposed to go up the day she was born! ;) I think the day at the orchard - specifically the hay ride that we took the kids on - put me into labor! She was born less than 18 hours later. Ha! Pic from the day:
So even though Ellie is here now, I still wanted to document the last 2 weeks, just so I could look back and see my thoughts, emotions, and progress! Thanks for following along with me over this wonderful journey!**
