Happy Friday people!
I’m glad you all enjoyed the ‘quiz’ yesterday on finding your passion. It sounds like it’s a quest we’re all in search of. I’m in good company 
I’m going to meet up with some awesome bloggers tonight that are in town for Foodbuzz and I am so excited 
I’ll be sure to recap and link to their sites after we meet up 
Anyway, that secret.
Apparently I’m pretty good at keeping them because I’ve been keeping this one for longer than I’ve wanted.
You all remember my bestie right?
Well we really are two peas in a pod you know. I mean how many friends do you know that got engaged just minutes apart (with no pre-coordination) and then got married 4 months apart????
Well you know what else is happening 4 months apart???
Oh yes, you are seeing that right. My bestie is having a baby!!! She is due April 22nd (I am due Dec 26th) – how absolutely amazingly incredible is that? We are 17 weeks apart and that is just so awesome.
We dreamed of being pregnant together, and despite the fact that we’re now on opposite coasts, we both couldn’t be happier.
Andrea still has a couple weeks before finding out the gender, but she’s leaning towards girl, which is perfect because then she can marry Sawyer 
Here we are the weekend of my shower: Me – 31 weeks; Bestie – 14 weeks.
So help me congrats my bestie A and give her some love
Do you have special stories to share about you and your bestie?
Aw that’s exciting! I see some future best friends in the future for your babies.
We do too
congrats shannas bestie!!
thats so exciting – now she needs to move closer
She’d say I need to move closer to her
I agree
Aww that is SO exciting! Though I thought your secret was going to be twins haha!
There is NO room in this belly for twins..haha
That is so fantastic! How great will it be for your kids to grow up together? Congratulations to your bestie!!
Pretty amazing Leah !
My bestie and I had our babies only 3 weeks apart…she had a girl, I had a boy. And yes, they will marry someday!!
Oh my gosh..only 3 weeks apart? That is so cool!
Too cute. I hope you live near each other. It’s wonderful to have close friends with kids of a similar age. Once the kids are 4-5 years old, they can run off and play while you hang out. Wee!
We did live 5 minutes apart, now it’s more like 5 hours by plane
We envision a lot of trips to meet up 
Congrats to your friend and how fun to be pregnant together. I honestly hope that happens with me and my sister or me and my Aunt — we all got married within a year of each other and it just seems like the timing will probably work out. I think it would be fun!
I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you Holly
How wonderful! Congrats to you both! You should share your engagement stories. So awesome that it happened with no coordination!
That’s a good idea Emily — it’s pretty cute
Awesome! I see a lot of play dates in your future.
awwww! congrats to your bestie! that is so amazing! sometimes the universe is so wonderfully coordinated! i have a secret as to why nate & i will never have babies…my parents are devastated but it’s our lives and future right? we decided 2 years ago and not a regret since! plus, there’s always adoption if we change our minds.
It’s totally YOUR lives and your decision. I know plenty of people who choose to not go that route…think of all the amazing travel and spontaneity you have your in futre
that is so awesome! nothing like having someone to share all of those huge life experiences with that is also going through them themselves! it’s basically what all girls talk about growing up… how best friends will go through all of that together! amazing!
I got really lucky finding my bestie
That is too cute. Congrats to your friend!
That’s straight out of a movie! Congrats to both of you
It kind of is isn’t it Lauren
Congrats again to your bestie!! So happy for her and that’s so awesome you get to bring up your babies together…and the timing of everything is so surreal…you two were definitely meant to be besties, love it
I’ve always wished my sis and I get pregnant at the same time…we’ll see!
I hope so too Shayla — it’s lovely to have someone go through it together!
And besides, you can raid my maternity clothes
Yes please!!
Congrats congrats! That’s so exciting! I would love it if my best friend and I got pregnant around the same time. How fun!
My best friend has been trying for a few months now and I secretly wish she’d wait a little longer so if I decide to have babies we can be pregnant together
And I LOVE that your baby is due on my birthday!! Every time I see it it makes me smile. Destined to be an awesome person…
Cleary she needs to wait for you Jess
Thanks for all the well wishes bestie blends!! I can’t wait for Sawyer and baby ‘Sh’ to meet (and of course fall in love).
Hugs S!
Love this secret! Congrats to you BOTH!
No way!!!! How fun is that? Congratulations to both of you!!!
Aww, that is adorable!! Congrats to your bestie!!
And–story time! I grew up next door to one of my best friends and then her family moved last year. Both of us ended up getting apartments in the city and without talking about location at all, have somehow managed to choose places across the street from each other. I think it’s so great that we literally grew up together and are not together again for this next stage in our lives
Oh my god that is too cool Liz! I love how “fate” stuff like this happens. Neat neat neat!
That is truly SO cute. I think that is crazy about the engagement thing!! Congrats to her1
Awww..that’s so awesome…congrats to A! It’s so amazing that you two can share this amazing journey together!
Oh, how FUN!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!
Shanna that is amazing!!! Congrats to your bestie and I am so excited for you! That’s amazing! I wish my bestie was pregnant with me!!!
You gals need to move closer again!
PS–have fun at Food Buzz!
I always told my best friend that I’d have my first when she had her second and guess what? Our kids are 10 days apart! Crazy.
10 days! Awesome
Awe that is too cool! My bestie and I aren’t having children so it works out well.
Congrats to Andrea! I’m sending baby girl vibes her way so that Sawyer will have a cute playmate, friend and future wife.
It was SO wonderful seeing you today! I feel extremely fortunate to call you my friend, Shanna! Hopefully we’ll get to see each other again soon, next time with adorable baby boy in tow.
Have fun rocking that lace top! I wish we lived closer so that we could take a twins picture together. <3
Love you!
congrats!! that’s so fun!
Oh my goodness HOW EXCITING
I also had NO idea about the proposal!! – seconds apart?! No way! That is just too cool..and very obvious that you two were MEANT to be best friends
CONGRATS to BOTH of you! What an exciting time it is in your lives!
