Freaking out about baby is so 2008

Alright so I have to admit that there have been a few times that I have been sorta freaked out about the impending addition to the family. I mean woah.... this ain't a pet we're talkin about here Martha, it's a dang person.

But, this is a new year and I'm happy to say the freak out days are well behind me. These days, I've really just been busy as all get out. To busy to even blog about how busy I am! Now some people might call it nesting but I call it, "Let's get everything done before baby comes and we never get it done". I mean lets call a pot a pot here. We aren't birds meticulously preparing our nest made of twigs and housing insulation. We're people who, as a part of getting ready for a child, have done things like plant trees and hung our degrees. It's kind of funny. It's like we're getting ready for a relative that we haven't seen for a long time or someone of equal importance we might be trying to impress. In reality though, as long as baby's got something to eat, someone to clean up his/her poop and warm place to sleep... they could care less about the wall clock you finally got put up.

But, while babies could care less, parents couldn't care more. And, as all these sorts of things have gotten dropped from the old honey-do list, I can't help but feel a little chipper about things.
Soon we will have our kid. Hanging out, being a part of my life hopefully until it ends. Crazy to think about, but man am I excited to get it started.

So come on out here baby, we're ready for ya!

.........I think.
