A virtual baby book for all who love our little Lily Jade and a place to gather my thoughts on the crazy journey that is motherhood.

Those people
I have never liked listening to people talk endless about their pregnancy and/or parenting. It was especially difficult when I was trying to get pregnant and people would go on and on about their kids. Now that I am pregnant, I find myself talking about it all the time. I have also noticed that Scott does it too - we talk about it amongst ourselves, with our friends, and with our families. It seems that there are endless conversations to have (sometimes I wonder what we talked about before we became pregnant). As much as I don't like this, I don't really know when it started to happen and I don't feel like I have much control over it. If you haven't been pregnant, I don't think that I can help you appreciate how much time I spend thinking about being pregnant and having a baby. It truly occupies 90% of my thoughts. I partly think that this is because I constantly feel pregnant but I think that it is also because there is so much to process about having a baby and being a parent. It is the most overwhelming thing that I have ever done and even though I am stoked to become a mother, it totally terrifies me.
