The thoughts of a very soon-to-be-mother. aka - ME

It's apparently been a while since I've posted - I plan on writing the whole birth story, but I got on and realized that I wrote this and never posted it. So I figured I'd post it first and then get into the whole birth and life of Maggie. Enjoy!



I'm starting this post the morning before I am to be induced (01/27/2011). I can't sleep worth my life. I crawled into bed at like 11:00pm last night utterly exhausted and yest I haven't hardly slept. I finally got myself out of bed at 4am in a futile attempt to make myself tired and to stop keeping Spencer up - but I don't think either has worked. It's now 5:45am and we are supposed to call the hospital somewhere between 6 and 6:30am to find out what time they want us to come in.

It's totally surreal to think that we're actually going to have a baby. It's weird to think that I won't be pregnant anymore. It's weird that this thing inside of me is actually going to be on the outside as a living, squirming, dependent child. And it's weird to think that I'm actually excited about that! :) Maybe some of you actually know what I'm talking about or what I'm getting at here - but as you can tell, my main word of choice is WEIRD.
