My best advice is to indeed be yourselves and to not focus on issues related to the baby, but rather ask about herself, her interests, favorite music, movies, etc. Get to know her, and allow her to see how you are as people. She's going to be as nervous or more nervous than you are.

Be prepared to introduce yourselves - Hi I'm __ and my husband is __. We're so glad you wanted to speak with us. We're really nervous! We just got back from the Home Depot - we love to work on the house, and I love planting flowers the best...etc.
