1 Year Old Tomorrow!!

1 year ago today was the absolute longest day of my entire life!!

I knew exactly what was going to happen the next day... my son was going to be born!

After spending last November 23 shopping and walking around trying to calm my nerves, we ate at On The Border restaurant (not the best choice by the way for someone who is 9 months pregnant FYI!) We came home and everyone went to sleep but me, I did not sleep for more than 1 hour total. I knew I couldn't eat after midnight, so i stuffed myself with more food and soda, then had the WORST case of heartburn ever and was still suffering from a horrible cold and could not breathe through my nose! It was the most miserable I have ever been in my entire life!! I cried on my way to work just thinking about this day, I knew my life was going to change big time and for the better, but I had a lot of fears of 1. major abdominal surgery while being awake 2. actually having a child and wondering if I was going to be a good mom!

I spent 9 months dreaming of what Bryce looked like, what his personality was going to be like and what if was going to feel like to hold him in my arms finally and I KNEW I was going to get to do it tomorrow!

He is everything I ever dreamed of and more!!

I will post birthday boy pictures tomorrow!!
