Thoughts on this pregnancy thing

I'm going to compare my unborn child to an iPhone.

I'm afraid that having this baby will be like finally getting an iPhone after not realizing how great they actually are. And now that you have an iPhone you never want to put it down. You love it so much and always play with it, buy things for it, protect it, take it everywhere you go. You can't believe how much you love having an iPhone, even though you were a naysayer at times. I'm nervous that's how this baby thing is going to go.

I've never been a big baby person. I LOVE my nephews (and sometimes pretend they're mine), and even have feelings of affection for children of friends or family, but otherwise when it comes to strangers' babies and kids...meh?

But I feel it building up inside me.

Then there's the fear factor of what my child will be like. Have you met Hobbes? He's our dog that is spoiled beyond belief. Jeff compares him to a spoiled, bratty teenager that's too far gone to know what to do with. Boarding school? take the car away? Nope. Instead he just walks all over us. Now imagine a little baby boy, even cuter than Hobbes. We are doomed.

Those are my thoughts.
