One Month To Go....

So, today is August 2nd. It's hard to wrap my mind around the fact that I'm expected to give birth one month from today. Although I am physically more than ready to be done being pregnant, it seems as though the time has flown by. The initial excitement and disbelief of finding out I was pregnant on 12/30/2009 seems so long ago. Pregnancy certainly brings it's own reality as the weeks and months progress. Fortunately, mine was an easy one - no major symptoms or complaints. Just the slowly (although it seemed rapid some days) growing belly, fatigue, and sleeplessness. Then, the recognition that I could feel him moving. Now, in 31 days (give or take some, I know) we'll get to meet our son. OUR SON! Just writing that phrase brings a smile to my lips and a feeling of butterflies in my stomach (or is that just him reminding me he's real?). I can't wait to see what parenthood will be like. I can't wait to see Ryan as a father. We've had so much fun just being the two of us, but I know that we're ready to have this family become three.
