amy, your post made me smile, b/c i felt the SAME EXACT way. i agree with lakin, amy. for years i've had baby name books (i'm a certifiable dork, i know), had parenting magazines for a few years, and once the decision to adopt was made, i bought a few books that were suggested reading by our agency and some great minds here. and i'm glad i got a start early, b/c it kept me focused. when it was too hard, i put the books down for a while. and now, we are matched, the baby is due in about 4 weeks, and i haven't had the concentration to read the books at all! all my free time has been getting the nursery ready, getting a few baby outfits while we hang out in another state, getting work/loa stuff straightened out, lawyers, agency, etc. i've packed a few books to read there, although i'll be every waking minute will be spent staring at the baby.
keep us posted!!
