Greetings- I'm new to the nest and the bump, but have been lurking on various boards for a few weeks. I have been hearing my friend talk about the nest/the bump for years, but never knew why she was so addicted. Now I get it.
I have a 7 year old daughter, a 3 year old daughter, and a third daughter on the way. I'm a grad student finishing up my PhD. That's it for now.

Yes, people seem surprised that I was actually hoping that number 3 would be a girl. Not that I don't love baby boys, but I was excited by the prospect of a little all-girl gang. Also, I'm cheap and fewer clothes to buy!
I'm getting my degree in linguistics at UT Austin. Defending in March, and so very ready to be done.
