6 1/2 hours...but who's counting?
My flight leaves at 3:00 am for my visit trip. I've gone between crying and wanting to throw up all day. I'm a nervous, excited wreck!! I can't WAIT to get there and hold my baby for the first time. I'm staying at the Marriott, if anyone else is going to be there. Carla---I'll see you and little Shay tomorrow!!!
I may have a million questions for you guys by tomorrow night!! I've never been a mom before!!!! Oh boy...here comes the nausea again!! lol

Don't worry Ruthanne, you will be fine. I know you are nervous, but the baby doesn't know you are a first time Mommy, so relax!!! It will be wonderful, exciting, fun, and educational all at the same time!! You will be a GREAT Mommy, so just enjoy your visit and take lots of pictures to share when you get home!!!!
Blessings and safe travels.
