Getting Real

Even though Dana has been carrying our baby girl for almost 7 months now, to me she hasn't seemed "real". But today I called to schedule her very first doctor's appointment with our pediatric ophthalmologist Dr. Arnold to check for cataracts. And all of a sudden I realized "Wow, this is real. She's on her way"

It's funny because I know for Dana the new baby is already VERY real (as in, really kicking her in the ribs, really making her hungry at all hours of the night, really making her sleep apnea worse every day). But it took this small act for it to all come into focus for me.

So it won't be too long now before we're back to square 1 with a brand new little human.

Yaaay! Little Princess will be making her appearance soon -- I can hardly wait to meet her. Have you and Dana thought of names yet?
