I cannot believe that March 1 is here. We’ve been waiting for this day since I saw that little pink line pop up on June 27. I remember being so anxious and giddy that day waiting to gush the most exciting news in the world to Drew. It’s seriously so crazy how long ago that sweet moment seems now, but at the same time, I feel like my pregnancy has flown by.
Being pregnant has been such an amazing blessing and I’m the luckiest girl in the world to be going through this journey with my best friend in the entire world. Drew has been more amazing than I could have ever even imagines during my pregnancy, and it’s been so fun to watch us continue to grow together on our journey to becoming parents! I seriously fall more in love with him every single day, and know that once I see him with our sweet little girl (so soon), my heart might just explode. It’s so crazy to me how close we are to being parents. So surreal.
We’re so excited to meet our sweet girl, and finally call her by name to everyone! š It’s been such a fun & hard secret to keep throughout my pregnancy. I’m actually very proud that we’ve both been able to keep her name a secret. We call her by name at home, and I have so many cute videos of Drew talking + singing to my belly that he says her name in. I’ll have to do a pregnancy compilation video or something after she’s here to share the sweet moments with y’all.
It’s so strange knowing she can come at any moment, but we’re ready for her. I’m so terrified and scared, but more excited than I’ve ever been. I’ve cried so many times just thinking that it won’t be just me and Drew anymore. I feel so selfish admitting that, but I feel like it’s just because it’s all we know! We’ve been together for 10.5 years now, and it’s so strange to think of us as a family of 3, when we’ve just been ‘Morgan and Drew’ for so very long. I know that once she’s here, we won’t ever be able to imagine our lives without her and I cannot wait to feel that feeling. š
I’m still dilated to a 1.5, but my cervix has softened! So hoping that’s a good sign. š I would love for her to come this weekend or, like, right now! haha. If she doesn’t, I am scheduled to be induced on this Thursday, March 6! So in 5 days (or less), we will definitely have a baby girl in our arms. So freaking amazing. Our bags are packed, and now we will just enjoy these last few moments or days as a family of 2. Thank you all for your love, support, and prayers. They mean more to us than y’all will ever know!!!
I’m so happy that we were able to get these sweet maternity photos together before our little girl arrived! I wanted pics with Drew when I was pregnant, but didn’t really plan ahead to get them done. I was so excited when Yoonju from Yoonju Moon Photography reached out to me about doing these, and immediately said yes! She is so talented and is actually a fellow Yellow Jacket. We had so much fun shooting with her and are so thankful to have these beautiful photos together that we will always cherish! š We shot these in Piedmont Park in Atlanta in a little hidden bamboo forrest area.
