Today is my 29th birthday. (Ok, it was yesterday, but I forgot to post it!)
I have mixed emotions. I am starting my last year of my twenties. I definitely think that expecting a baby next month (!!) helps with my more positive attitude about 29. As Michael wrote in my brithday card, this will be the year I become a mother. It makes me tear up just thinking about it. Of course, it always helps knowing that Michael is 2 years older than me. So even though I am 29, he's already 31! :)
My twenties have been great: college, TFA, marriage, jobs, home ownership and baby! That's a lot to pack into 10 years. I feel that the next 10 will include more milestones related to Heath than myself, but that's ok. I don't really have any grand plans for my last year. I think having a baby and learning how to be a mother will be enough!
Having a baby will certainly keep you busy ... and you'll be much more interested in his milestones than your own for the first year or so (at least that's how it was for me). : ) So excited for him to arrive and to see pictures of him!
