What are you looking forward to most after baby?

I know a lot of us might be getting impatient as we head toward those elusive due dates, so I thought I'd pose a fun question. Other than holding your baby and all that obvious newborn sweetness, what are you most looking forward to after your baby is born? For me, it would be sleeping on my stomach and being able to get in and out of my husband's truck without him having to boost my rear up into the seat while I grunt through it. There is no dignity there. None.

I'm also looking forward to finally breaking into the bottle of wine I won at a vineyard days before we found out I was pregnant. It's been taunting me for too long.
Sleeping on my back and stomach. Being able to roll over without being out of breath. Not taking 10 minutes to put on shoes or get off the couch.
