Status Update

So here's where I'm at:

We've been getting the house ready over the past few weeks for the baby. (Better late than never!) It's been the most intense over the past week and a half or so. I've done a little home remodeling, Feng Shui adjusting, and redecorating. It's been nice to be so productive.

Since Carrie's due date (May 31) with no baby, her doctor recommended a induction to be scheduled for tonight. We prepared our house, and got our kids ready to be babysat by my sister. (In my house, my sister is on the same level as the Easter Bunny or the Tooth Fairy. It's like magic.)

We headed to the hospital @ 7:30. It's no more than 2 minutes from our house, so the drive was quick. We got Carrie up to the room, to be admitted. They drew blood for some tests, and then attached the IV. The baby monitor was attached, to keep track of the baby's vitals. Now they needed to do the...exam.

Well, long story short: they said that Carrie's lady business wasn't ready for it's grand opening.


...



(Yeah, I'm gonna leave that one alone.)



So we got sent home after a few hours! From a scheduled induction!

It's crazy. So now we're home, waiting for #3 to show up.

Hopefully, next week I'll be the father of 3. And not the husband of an angry woman with a baby STILL in her belly.

  1. Ahhh.... I'm sending good thoughts your way.... Maybe you should start enacting old wives tales to induce labor. Have sex, eat eggplant... Phil's mom moved a washin machine to try to get him to come out.

    We will be thinking of you both!!
