4 days to go...

I'm very excited to finally meet the munchkin that has been beating me from the inside-out, but I'm a little apprehensive about what is going to happen once s/he arrives. I really have enjoyed being pregnant. I don't have any real complaints about any of my experiences. Yes, some have been unpleasant at times, but they were so temporary. My greatest source of excitement, besides seeing what this little one looks like and who s/he resembles, is for Matt to get to hold this baby in his arms. I want to see the look on his face when he holds him/her for the first time.
I feel like I've been experiencing all the fun; interacting with kicks and pushes. So I can't wait to see what happens once he gets to interact, too.

This past weekend, we had a lot of fun. Matt's friend, Josh, was in town travelling from Chicago back to Arkansas. We had dinner with him two nights with the typical conversations (conversation was mostly trombone--okay, it was almost all trombone). Sunday my sweet, brilliant friend BB came into town, which was celebrated with a potluck and Beth & Drew's. It was a wonderful time with a house full of equally wonderful people.

Saturday morning, my buddy Brian took some pictures of me and Matt at the park. I wanted a few "belly pictures" (covered with clothing, though). The pictures turned out really well, even though I didn't like my puffy face in a few. Still, there are some real winners and I fully intend to have them framed in my house.

I have good friends. :-)
