pregnant polaroid

I’m about to embark on the most creative act a woman can dream of, though I’ve been in the process for the past nine months, this is the finale.  Drumrolls please… better than having a painting displayed at the MOMA, an award winning book or film, songs topping the charts or debuting at fashion week… having a baby is the ultimate expression of beauty that an artist (that anyone!) could dream of.

Many of you have been asking, so I thought I’d give a little update… don’t get too excited, but we’re in that transition stage of our second baby coming!  Which means that he could show up any moment now, or that it could be several more days. Which is vague and suspenseful and it’s hardly possible to concentrate on anything or plan much in the meantime.  Feels like I’m on standby for a really great destination – bags packed, house clean, arrangements made for our little seven year old, all ready… but will we ever get there? (I’m telling myself over and over that the answer is yes!) I can’t really believe it, it’s been so long and even though there is no doubt we are almost there, I don’t think it will be real until I’m holding him.  Close friends and family know that we’ve waited years for this new addition in our lives, so each hour that passes by just means one stride closer to finally meeting this sweet little bundle.  Cross your fingers for us!
