No... I'm not counting or anything!
It seems just like yesterday, I held that pregnancy test and slowly opened one eye to reveal what was to come. Now that I am looking at the light at the end of the proverbial tunnel, I'm not sure I'm ready for it to end. I recall the fun moments like the first weird little movements (which have now become big weird movements) and finding out I am having a girl (which is what I secretly wanted). I honestly think I'll miss the feeling of having a little life inside me. Although, I can't wait to hold that little life on the outside either... it is bittersweet, scary, and the most exhilarating feeling I have ever known.
Mom and I attended our first of two childbirth classes today. I'm not nervous about the actual childbirth. I'm okay with the whole process, but I wish someone could just give me a schedule of exactly when everything is going to happen, and how. That would make my life so much easier! I was looking around the class today at all of these trepidatious fathers and realized not having her dad there wasn't such a bad thing! I have the luxury of having a woman and more importantly my mom to coach me through! There's just a different level of understanding and basic maternal instinct that comes with that! She's excited too... it's cute! I think, though she'd never let me know, she's freaking just a bit! :)
I enjoyed a pedicure purchased by my friend from work (AT&T) Cheri, today. It was nice to catch up with her! As I wrap up here, I consider whether I should clean off the coffee table which has now become the scrapbooking, Stephanie is suddenly crafty table, or just go to bed. Thinking the latter will probably win out! Will post pictures of my new found motherly crafting gene in the next post!
