The Birth of Baby Bean
We are not too far away from meeting our baby girl, which completely blows my mind. Whenever someone asks me how I would best describe pregnancy, the word that always appears in the forefront is "bizarre", but at the same time my body was literally built for this. But despite that fact and the fact that I am one of the last of my friends to give birth (I've been supplied with tons of information from them over the last few years!), I wanted to be as prepared as I could be by reading books on pregnancy and postpartum to really help me feel ready for this next chapter of my life. I've never been pregnant before, and I was completely overwhelmed in the beginning of the pregnancy.

To know that the three of us are loved and cherished made us feel so warm and sweet. The guests included my closest friends in the US, plus members of my family (who stayed up late on the east coast just for this event) and beau's family in Canada. To see everyone gathered around with big smiles as we played fun baby shower games and reflected on great memories made me smile from ear to ear for hours and days afterwards.
