4 purple toenails

Right now, I have 4 purple toenails. I'm painting one finger or toe nail everyday to count down until my due date. I learned as a kid from my awesome Mom that there is fun to be had, even when going through something that is hard. When I was 11, my Dad spent nearly all of December and the entire month of January in Germany on business, and my Mom had us make a paper snowflake for each day he would be gone, then we took one down from hanging on the wall each day. I've counted down with a paper chain until the end of college semesters, and stickers on a chart until my bro came home from his mission, I've counted down with rocks in a jar or paper flowers on the wall. But today, I have 4 purple toenails. I hope none of them fall off. :)

mommy hugger, little bugger, chocolate milk chugger, princess backpack lugger.

Daddy melting, question pelting.

puppy husher, giggly gusher, never a rusher.

worm holder, important paper folder, getting bolder.

long hair, loves a good scare, changes what she wears.

twirly dancy, dressing fancy, rather sassy.

answers with "sure!", her hugs often cure, heart so pure!
(thanks for all the sweet pics, Grandma!)

My Mom and Dad are close to the middle, my oldest sis next to them (having her baby 6 weeks before me), my second sis and her hubby hiding behind them, and my "little" bro and his wife are next to me! I purposely wore non-maternity clothes so my belly could be seen! :) Click the pic to make it bigger, then click Back on the browser to come back!
