Almost there...

I have just over a week left of this pregnancy (she says while knocking on a huge piece of wood!).  I think I am in a little bit of denial that we are actually going to have a new little person in our lives very soon.  I have just been going about my life kind of pretending it's not really going to happen.  It isn't that I am not looking forward to it.  I really am excited to meet her and get to know her,  I just can't seem to wrap my head around the fact that it's going to happen at all.  I guess I don't even know how to express how I feel.  It's very strange. 

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that we haven't decided on a name yet.  Maybe it's not personal enough, but that's a really weird idea since how much more personal can you get than having a life growing inside of you for nine months?  Anyway, I'm feeling a little dis-jointed about the whole thing.  I guess it might not hit me until the doctor hands her to me after the delivery. 

I pre-registered today at the hospital and I think that's what brought all this to the front of my mind.  That sometime in the next week or so I will go into that same building and come out again with a new member of my family.  Crazy!!  I'm excited and nervous about the whole thing.  Wish me luck!!
