Recall my 'OVERexcited' post where I shared a photo of myself pregnant at 36 weeks? Possibly an over-used term these days, yet I honestly was completely and utterly OVERthemoon in love with my newborn baby girl, photo circa 2004. Isabelle won me over in every way possible, right from the moment I laid my eyes on her. This, my friends, is what love at first sight really means. Make sure you … [Read more...]
