Our Nest Is Expanding

So, for the past several weeks I have had great intentions of posting about the changes happening in our lives, but for one reason or the other my intentions have not become a reality...until today. Well, we are expecting our first baby and I am super close too...as in about a month away from my due date! We are so excited and feel so blessed about this wonderful gift! I have had a very smooth pregnancy, I've really enjoyed it actually, and I feel so grateful for that because I know that's definitely not the case with many women. We have been super busy preparing for our little baby that will be here very soon. The nursery was painted weeks ago, the crib is assembled, and the other furniture pieces have been put in their places, I just have the final touches to wrap up and I can't wait to share some photos when it is all complete! :)

I apologize in advance if I'm boring y'all to tears, but if you're at all interested in seeing how my pregnancy has been coming along, I've posted some pictures below from over the past eight months (wow, that's a long time!)...

Matt, the day we found out our big news!

Me and one of my best friends at her baby shower. I'm about two months here.
