I'd say we are pretty excited for the most part. Brandon - what do you think...(maybe this question will encourage him to do his own blog post in which he has expressed some slight interest).
I find myself most anxious about...
-daycare arrangements
-finding and training in someone to cover for me at work while I am gone
-making sure we have all of the baby gear we are going to need when this little guy/gal decides to pop out. Despite my original intentions of not having a registry in an effort to avoid overdoing it on the baby stuff - I am coming to terms with the fact that there are a lot of things that will be very helpful. So we do have registries now.
| Progress we have made on the baby's room. |
-meeting this little one we have been growing for 7 months but thinking about for much longer
-reading to him/her
| Our new library courtesy of my wonderful GT friends. |
-just holding our baby
-the actual birth (I may sound crazy, but we just spent 4 classes learning about this process and it is truly amazing how mom and baby's bodies know what to do)
-maternity leave (I can't remember the last time I had more than 2 weeks off of work)
-observing the joy that a little newborn can bring to so many people
I could go on...
