When I first got pregnant, everyone told me:
"The weeks and months will just fly by... until you get to the last four weeks!"
And of course I didn't believe them! Why would I? My pregnancy was going to be a wonderful experience, full of wonderment and happiness. In short, I would be perfect.
At 36 weeks, 2 days, I can now honestly say that the weeks really did fly by. I can't believe that we're already through Summer and Fall... and that we're already into 2010. What happened to the sunshine? What happened to the changing leaves? WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HOLIDAYS?? Apparently, I was too involved with baby baking to notice any of this.
And now time has come to a screeching halt. Those other people were totally right.

It really bugs me
When people ask:
Are you ready?!
How could I ever be ready for the biggest, most important and wonderful thing to ever happen in my life? No! Of course I'm not ready!
In the smaller sense of the word, Lulu's room is ready. The laundry is DONE. The bags are packed. We need to install the carseat, but really, that's not a big thing. So I guess we are prepared for her arrival...
And in another sense, I am totally uncomfortable. I can't breath. I have no appetite. I can't wait to meet my little girl and see what she looks like. I want to see the little personality that has been kicking the crap out of my insides for the last 9 months! So I guess I am a little ready...
But as far as being able to fathom the way my life is about to completely and utterly change??
I AM NOT READY!
