We're in the double digits!

Holy cow sis! We are officially in the double digits! Reality set in the other day for your dad and I when we were putting groceries away and realized that some of our food expires AFTER you are here! That means it's getting close! I am totally scared! Frightened! Terrified! ...can you tell I'm a wee bit nervous about you? I'm still trying to wrap my brain around us being parents. Are we responsible enough? Are we ready? Are we even old enough? It's crazy to think that your mamaw and papaw had two kids by the time they were our age and your grandma and papaw had 3 kids by this time. Apparently we're old enough but still oh so scared. Will I know how to console you? Will I know how to decipher your cries? Will your dad remember to change your diaper on his day off? Will you love Emmy as much as we do? Will Emmy love you? What will you love? What will you hate? Who will you look like? I can't wait to see you and hold you. I think that will help pacify some of my anxieties. When I see a cute baby in a catalog or out somewhere I get lost thinking of you and who you are going to look like and what type of personality will you have. Will you have dark eyes like daddy and a shy personality like his too or will you be fair complected and outgoing like me? I can't wait for the day when we can talk and play Barbies together.
A brief update. You have found my bladder and you apparently enjoy hitting it like a punching bag. You are a very active little girl and your kicks, punches and elbows are getting more powerful. Sometimes it's hard not to bust out laughing when I'm in a meeting and I glance down at my belly and can see you doing Tae Bo in there. All of the books and updates say that you can hear my voice. I wonder if you know yet that I'm your mommy. Do you hear Daddy talk too? While I'm not quite sure that Emmy knows yet what is going on, she does enjoy laying on top of my belly. I'm sure you'll be used to hearing Emmy huffing and puffing since she's been laying on you almost daily.
We got your bed this weekend courtesy of Mamaw and Papaw and we bought the fabric for your bedding for Grandma to make. You have the best grandparents ever! AND the best great grandparents who are also already spoiling you. Although your dad said no pink walls, I've decided to paint your room pink. :) It's going to be super cute and I'm sure he'll love it. Mamaw, Aunt Jen, Amy and I all went to Canton last weekend and bought tons of amazing bows and sweet outfits. Aunt Jen is already asking when I will be letting you stay overnight with her. If anyone is going to spoil you rotten..it's going to be her. I may have a hard time prying you out of her arms.
We are all so anxious to meet you. We love you so much little one!
