Waiting

If your unfamiliar with the current status of my beautiful wife then you need some background.  Shes pregnant.....VERY pregnant. Shes due any day, er , time now.  The actual due date is tomorrow, 1/9, but she has been at the threshhold for days now; and she's done.

We woke up this morning to several contractions back to back...startling us enough to jump up and begin getting dressed...then nothing.   Thanks Nolan.  

Its not like this is our first... far from it.  It's number four.  FOUR.  I know, "What were we thinking?"  We hear that a lot, and honestly, its a little old.  The truth is we always wanted several kids we just never expected to have them all so quickly.  Our daughter turned nine on the 6th, (yes Tuesday), and our sons, 7 and 1, were born on the same day.  Well not the same day, they're 6 years apart, but both on August 30.  (The odds of that cant be very high, so I consider it some kind of good luck sign.)   

Despite my daughters sincere feelings to the contrary, I was really hoping the baby would be born on the 6th, and they could share that day.  I mean think about it...4 kids on 2 birthdays.  I could save a LOT of money on parties, not to mention the reduction in planning and logistics!  But apparently his just like his siblings, and he's doing things his way- not ours.  Its 9 oclock on the 8th, and no baby.

So were still waiting.  Impatiently.
