I can hardly believe that I will be a MOM sometime in the next 2 weeks!! What?!! I have dreamed about this for so long and it's coming so soon that I am almost in shock that it's really happening!
Tomorrow is my last day of work! How is it possible that it's my turn to take maternity leave???!
I have a nursery, baby products all over the house and a precious cradle next to my bed just waiting for a baby girl to come and LIVE AT OUR HOUSE FOREVER!
As hard as I try, it's just not possible for me to picture what she will look like. Will she have hair, will she be little or big, will she have my features or Matt's?? Obviously it doesn't matter but I just can't wait to put a face to her precious name!
My mind is racing with thoughts about labor, being at hospital and basically all of the unknowns but I know that it will all be perfect when I get to meet Preslee for the first time!
I absolutely can not wait to see Matt holding his little girl! I don't think he can even imagine how much he is going to be in love with her. And I feel like I may fall in love all over again watching him with her!
I'm just thanking God that my dream is about to come true! Oh My Goodness... I am about to be a MOTHER!!

Wow! This post made me cry! I had my first (and only, right now) son 17 months ago and sometimes I still sit and think, "Wow, I'm a mom to this precious little boy!" I love reading your blog and am so happy for you. Congrats!
I don't know you personally but have followed you for awhile :) What is so special about reading your post is that while reading it, I am feeding my lil man his bedtime bottle and got goosebumps! Our baby is 7 weeks today and we, too, struggled with infertility and were blessed on Sept 27, 2011 to welcome our angel into the world!! And 7 weeks ago, I had all the thoughts you shared!! As you know though...it's going to be amazing!!! I love being a Mommy and I sit here now in disbelief that he is really MINE!!!! Congrats to your family!!!!!!
I am so happy for you guys! You are going to be a wonderful mommy...Preslee is so blessed! Cherish every moment with her...it all goes by way too fast. I will be thinking about you and praying for you over the next few weeks! Can't wait to see pictures of Preslee...she will be beautiful!
This is one of the sweetest posts ever. Sending thoughts and prayers your way for a relaxing time leading up to little Preslee's birthday!
Oh, you made me cry too!! I can't wait for that moment either and was just thinking about the same things earlier today - will he have hair, what colour, how big will he be? I'm so excited for you that that precious time is coming so soon :) xxx
CRYING!! I'm so excited for you! You both will be outstanding parents & she will be PRECIOUS!!
You are going to be a fabulous Mom! Preslee is one lucky girl! I'll be thinking of and praying for you during your upcoming delivery. Can't wait to "meet" her!
So excited for you!!
what a sweet post Julee! I can't wait to meet and hold your sweet girl too! Looking forward to spending time with you on Friday! Enjoy your final days!
God bless you and Matt on this upcoming blessing. YOUR lives are to be forever changed!!! Just relax and enjoy being a couple these last few days and then new parents in the next few...forget about the world and just soak in the reality of it all and praise God for all that HE has given to you.. I know we all will meet Preslee soon. Here's to an easy delivery!

Aww, I cried when I read this! You will be an awesome mom! So exciting for yall!
Julee, I am thrilled for you. Did I miss it, or have you still not shown us pics of the nursery? Xo, Genah
So happee for you! I know how long you have waited for this moment. Having a daughter is such a precious gift. Enjoy her, they grow up so fast!!!!
Your post brought tears of joy to my eye's. I am so excited for you and Matt. I remember praying for you last year and am so excited that your wish is coming true! GOD IS GOOD!
You will be a TERRIFIC mother. I can't wait to see all of the picutres. Enjoy these few days, or weeks, of time just at home. God bless your family!!!
Even though I don't really KNOW you, I feel like I know you. I've followed your journey and I just can't tell you how happy I am for you. We have similar stories and although infertility is heartbreaking and frustrating and scary....I really feel kind of thankful for it and I wonder if you might feel the same way?? I think it makes you TRULY appreciate this precious gift of a baby. It makes you realize just how incredibly lucky you are. I think a lot of people take pregnancy and having children for granted. Anyway, you are going to be the BEST mommy!! I'm so happy for you!
You gave me goosebumps!! I loved this and I am just beyond excited for you and Matt!! I can't wait to see what that sweet girl looks like and she is sooooo beyond loved and has no idea!!!
I am so excited for you!! She is going to be beautiful and oh so loved! You will definately fall in love with your hubby all over again...I know I did!
Julee, I smiled so big reading this post and got SO EXCITED for you! Seeing your precious girl is the BEST THING EVER! I can't wait to see Miss Preslee too- she will be beautiful! Best of luck and take in every second- it all goes by so fast!
Couldn't possibly be happier for you.... it is YOUR turn!!!! Can't wait to see Preslee too :) I think she will come out wearing a bow hahaha.... Praying for a smooth delivery and hospital stay! I know life is definitely going to be a whirlwind here soon, but I wanted to ask you some questions about your salon/((assuming))cosmetology school expierence/etc!
I am so excited for you! I still catch myself in disbelief that I am a Mom, even two years later.
I can't wait to see pictures of sweet Preslee and you and Matt with your little girl. From the moment she gets here you will forget life before her!!
This makes me smile! I am so happy for you!

I'm so excited for you. You will love it! The first month can be tough, but she will be so, so worth it. Prayers that you have an easy and quick delivery!!
This post made me cry!! So sweet, and it is so hard to explain all of the feelings you will feel when you meet your baby girl for the first time!!!! I am so excited for you, and just thrilled that your dreams are coming so soon!!!
what a sweet post! I have been following you for a while.. I too waited for 10 years for my son and it was the most amazing experience! I pray you have a safe delivery! cant wait to read all about it!

I love your blog and I, too, think back to those same feelings, only mine were 17 years ago! I remember being only DAYS away from my little girl, and I, too, just couldn't put a face to that baby girl until she was born and then, you will be in awe! I am so excited for you, even though I don't know you! One thing's for sure....you know she'll be cute!
