Our Last Night Before Child (possibly)

Tomorrow morning we head to the hospital for an induction, since I will be 9 days overdue. It's quite odd to think of this as our last night to not be parents. The next time we walk into our home will be with a permanent addition to our family. Pretty crazy. We like it, it's just surreal and I feel like someone needs to pinch me. Life is really happening. And I mean LIFE-- like we are bringing a life into the world. HELLO! HELLO! That feels huge.

For some reason, I really dwell on these types of things. I really soak in all these little details and often freak myself out. Usually, I end up being fine, but I it's like I have to absorb the fullness of what is happening. The good, the bad, and the ugly. David, on the other hand is planning a dinner on Sunday night with our friends, like life resumes just as it was....don't get me wrong, I want to have a dinner on Sunday night, but I'm not sure what that will look like. It's all so unknown.

Well, I better take a bath and get my last night of sleep.  At least sleep without the responsibility of baby. David is out with a friend, but I want him to take one last pic before we head to the hospital in the morning. I'll post that before we leave (I hope). We've also decided to get a cup of coffee on the way and write about this event in our "couple/family journal" We're looking forward to what tomorrow holds.

Blessings and peace to you all (since I've found out at least 10 people read this blog- So, I am really cool). Until our next posting about the new Austin.....
