I hope Mr President enjoys the newest member of your family. Try not to let him be too jealous.
Good luck Laura and Khoi, really nice photograph, as always I love your B&W style.
What a beautiful bump! (I’m sure yours is cute, too, Khoi). Wishing you many delicious grown-up meals in these final days. xo
May the force be with you both! You’ll all be in my thoughts . . . Sleep While You Can, xx
The suspense is killing me. (Sending easy-labor thoughts Laura’s way!)
We had our baby in December. This is what expects you: link They’re so incredibly beautiful that you inevitably feel like that guy in that Radiohead song. May the force be with you. Oliver
Second that, we also had our baby girl in december. Nothing, absolutely nothing can prepare you for this, so I don’t even try.
Just relax! It’s awesome what life can do without us even guessing what is going on.
The best of luck for all three of you!
A very sweet photo. Best of luck to the both of you — got my fingers crossed.
Just had our first child ten weeks ago. At home, unmedicated water birth. It was a fantastic, unbelievable experience. Congratulations and enjoy the ride!
Best of luck to all involved, Khoi. Can’t wait to see pics.
Thanks, everyone. Everyone, thanks!
Especially my partner in multiplication, Khoi.
(Now, for that footrub…)
Looking lovely, It’s time for some spicy food, long walks, and (dare I say it?) sex. That is, assuming you’re impatient for this baby to make an appearance sooner rather than later…
Best of luck to you both, and enjoy this time while it lasts. You’ll miss it soon enough. 🙂
Woohoo! Best of luck to the both of you!
Well, it is time to add a little color to this scene…
pink will be perfect. Laura is ready, I know.
Bouncy-girl will come when she is, too; it won’t
be long now, I just know it. In the meantime,
say it, SAY IT! SEX! Nevermind the inducing qualities,
get it while you can without interruption! Hee. (er, She!)
Please pass along to Laura – my first child came 2 days early – don’t believe all the hype! Good luck and congrats!!
What a lovely image to capture this moment in your lives. Live them to the fullest and get as much sleep as you can before your baby girl arrives.
It is a moment that words will never fully describe. Those following are just as eventful, if not frustrating at times Ё but it is completely worth it.
Congratulations Khoi and Laura! I can’t believe how quickly the time flew…your life as you know it is about to change. It’s amazing, enjoy every moment.
Nice image. Love the contrast and lighting. Enjoy this last bit of pre-baby life… Sleep while you can… 😉
Congrats! I was trying to remember when you guys were due. The first two weeks are tough but it gets better after that. The goal is to get the baby above birth weight. Hold tight as the sleep deprevation will set in quick and you’ll both be prone to the occasional melt down.
I recommend Babywise. It’s a book that helps you regulate the baby’s schedule so he/she will sleep through the night. Ours is 11 wweks now and has one late night feeding and frequently a second but he goes to bed at 8pm and gets up at 7:30 and sleeps like a rock.
Good luck Khoi! That is an awesome picture of Laura.
Laura,
I’m a long-time friend of Khoi’s and just wanted to leave some encouraging words. I was two weeks late for both our kids (who are 1 & 2 now). I did NOT want to induce. These last few days are tough but try to enjoy this time. It’s a blip of time in the whole scheme of things and long after the baby is born, you’ll look endearingly back at the time you were pregnant and maybe even wish for this time again. Hang in there. The baby will be here before you know it!
Best to you both!
Hey, Ive got a bump like that and I’m a man!
Really need to stop drinking beer.
At least you can get rid of pregnancy bumps easily 🙂
Matt
Well??! It’s almost 10 days past and they usually won’t let you go much further.
and the baby is….?
