Another year has come and gone… and IT’S MY BIRTHDAY AGAIN! :) Ironically, now that I want time to slow down as much as possible, my birthday seems to come around really quickly. I can’t say that I’m very excited to turn 29 years old, as that only puts me one year away from the big 3.0, and I have to start saying goodbye to my twenties! However, I am excited for everything my 29th year will bring – lots of new memories, adventures and oh… the very small matter of having a baby! :)
One thing is for sure – this year will be one of the most memorable years of my life. It will also be the year my life changes forever, and although the thought of such a big change frightens me, I’ve never felt so ready for this new chapter and my new-found role as a mother.
In terms of birthday celebrations, this year will be quite low-key. The presents have been replaced for money to buy baby stuff, and the party has been swapped for a quiet meal for two and a snuggle on the sofa with my hubby and baby bump. But I still felt as though I needed to get ready for the day! So I had a little pamper session and got all dolled up to make me feel extra special. You can find below all the products I used to create my birthday look.

What do you think of my 29-year-old birthday face? You can see my 28th Birthday Face here and my 27th Birthday Face here. Despite some new wrinkles here and there, and the 26 weeks pregnant chubby face, I’m really happy with how I look as I say goodbye to my twenties! :)
Aw, you’re so beautiful!! I know the feeling, I’m 27 now and feel that my birthdays are coming around far too quickly. You look really well! How many weeks pregnant are you? I’m due my 2nd baby in 2 weeks and really feeling it now. Nights in snuggled with the hubby beats a night out any day xx

My 29th is fast approaching, too. I will be celebrating mine a month after my baby arrives, amidst all the hullaballoo. You should be glad you celebrated your last b’day of the twenties in such a calm fashion, looking as fantastic as you are. I keep saying this, you are looking your very best now
Happy birthday, beautiful girl! :) :*
Wishing you a very happy birthday. Your makeup looks gorgeous & fresh. Oh & I have to say my 30’s have been so much better than my 20’s. So don’t worry too much about coming to the end of your 20’s xxxx

Enjoy the last of your twenties. Your title worries me because I am in my 20’s and I need to appreciate it and make the most of it.
