Another Journey

This time last year we were preparing for our fantastic trip to London. It's hard to believe that we were heading there a year ago. How so much has changed in a year! This year, we are also preparing for a journey: parenthood! While it's a totally different journey than the London trip, we're doing some similar things to prepare for it.

Packing: instead of packing sweaters and scaves, we've packed a robe and newborn clothes. We have a small suitcase packed for the hospital.

Snacks: instead of having food to make lunches for our days in London, we have snacks ready on hand for labor and afterwards (mainly for daddy)

Reading: instead of reading tourist books, we're reading up on nursing, Bradley method, etc.

Documents: instead of boarding passes and passports, we have copies of our birthing preferences and insurance cards ready

Sourveniers: instead of returning with British flags and Big Ben magnets, we will be returning home with a little bundle of joy

We are just as excited for this new adventure as we were for London!
