5 days to Go

Next Tuesday Lis is scheduled for an inducement. When folks ask "How's she doing?" I respond sincerely:

"She's miserable and resents me for impregnating her."

Well, that first part is accurate; I hope the last part isn't the case.

She's been pushing hard to give the other kids every conceivable day of fun before the birth. Among trips to Stonefire Pizza, the park, and the lake (she went with 14! kids and three other adults yesterday) she barely has time to rest up for the birth, a fact I've tried to hammer into her head.

The LAST thing I need is for her to give birth early. I still have to:

1. Put the bassinett back together

2. Put the carseat in the car

3. Finish packing the bag for the hospital

4. Repair the mobile

5. Get the baby monitor working

6. fix or replace our camcorder (dropped by a nurse the day Parker was born)

etc. etc.

Yikes, my nerves are shot just thinking about it!

I'm going to try and catch up on some posts in the next few days, but in all likelihood the next entry will be the words introduction to my new little one.

Wish us luck!

Clarification and Etc

I appreciate all the kind words about the delivery, both in the comments and via email, but let me clear something up: while the stats show progress towards the birth, we haven't entered the home stretch yet. Some women can take weeks to move from 2 to 3 centimeters. The due date remains either March 5th or a week later, depending on if you go by ultrasound data or the last missed period.

I'll keep you all updated and I hope the wishes are repeated when it is time for the big event :)
