Caren is recovering well, but you know, it takes a lot out of you. More news at 11.
You're coming out, ready or not.
Right.
We’re off to have a baby. It didn’t want to come out on it’s own accord, so we’re off to force the issue. It’s a birth canal showdown at the ok corral (or Mercy Hospital, whichever has the best facilities.)
Next time we speak, I’ll be a responsible father!
Fly me to the Moon! Don't spare the horses.
Some absolutely stunning, newly released photography from the Apollo 11 Mission. Particularly the first ever photo of Earthrise
Oh Bubbaliscious, Where Art Thou?
Still no freaking baby!
Which, considering the due date was yesterday, wouldn’t normally be too much of a problem. Except for the fact that at our ob/gyn appointment last week Dr Smith (his real name, not some name I made up to protect his medical identity for unknown reasons) said that he thought it would be out within a couple of days. So naturally Caren and I got really excited about the prospect of everything appearing in time for the weekend!
No dice.
Anyway, it’s not really a problem. Caren is getting sick of having some feet in her lungs and being short of breath even while lying in bed, but there’s not really a great deal that can be done. If the wriggler doesn’t appear by next tuesday it will be induced. So, we’ll be knee deep in screams and babyshit within a week.
Joy!
