I Can't Believe I Have Done This (and a baby update)...


Remember my list of Most Dangerous Things About Bedrest? Remember how Number One was reserved for a future date. Well here it is: I bought a minivan. I'll let that settle for a minute . . . . . . I.Bought.A.Minivan. The one who vowed to never, ever take such a drastic step into adulthood has succomed to the hands-free sliding doors. Yes, we are the proud owners of a brand new VAN. She's a real beaut. I can't really explain what happened. I must have been tired of hoisting Joseph a/k/a "Big Biscuit" into the car seat and invariably knocking his noggin on the roof of our former SUV. I love my van. Real women drive minivans. Next stop: Appliqued halloween sweaters.


We went to the doctor this morning with our suitcases packed in the car, just certain they were going to send us over to Labor and Delivery. Not so much. Last week they told us if we got to 5 cm, they would send us on over to have the baby. Today we were still at 4...for like the third week in a row. Last night I got everything in order to have the baby today. This morning I spent extra time with Joseph. Can't say I'm not disappointed since today's my dad's birthday and I really wanted her to be born today. But, Maggie Lucas apparently has a mind of her own. Or else she's a really good girl and listened very carefully when we told her to stay in there.
