That really says it all. Everyone’s sick with cold or flu or both, who knows. It’s terrible. Had a rash scare with Zachary that turned out not to be what they thought it might be (ITP). Birthday pics for Benjamin were rescheduled, too.
Rough week. Looking to reschedule party to a date a couple weeks from now. More on that when we figure it out…
We’re having an informal get-together at home for Benjamin, on Saturday at 2pm, to celebrate his 2-years-oldness, which happens formally in about a week. If you’d like to stop by, please do! but we’d love it if you’d leave us a note and let us know so we can plan a little ahead. :)
We know it’s late notice already, so if you show up, you show up, and we’ll all be happy to see you. :)
Can’t believe it’s been two years already!
Mommy is one year older! I turn one more year older soon, too!
She’s still a lot younger than Daddy, though. Daddy’s REALLY old!
OK, gotta go… I hear someone coming, and I can’t let them see that I know how to use the computer properly! Bye-bye!
From everyone here, we hope you had a great year in 2007,
and we wish you all the best in 2008!
We’re so very proud to announce the birth of our second child and latest son!
He was born at 1258am on Sept. 24th, 2007, weighing in at a somewhat large-ish 11lbs 11oz, and 22 inches long! He did great, Mom did great (though there was no shortage at all of drama during delivery), and we’re already home, a full day early. Benjamin’s already very accepting of his new little brother, offering him kisses and hugs and patting and rubbing his head, holding his hands, etc. It’s really great to see them get along so well already. We spent a lot of time seeding the idea of a baby and brother into Benjamin’s head, and it appears, so far, to have really worked out well.
More pictures and a birth story will eventually follow. Thanks to everyone for their support and interest these last many months! We really appreciate it!
Had another NST on Thursday. Nothing new to report, really. Not given any information about induction. We were given very little information at all, in fact. We see a group of OBs at this OB office, and the OB we had this time is one that Stacey can’t really stand. I don’t care for him all that much either, really. He reeks of cigar smoke, spits all over you when he talks, and when he talks, he’s right in your face, and loud. Nice guy, I think, but he talks in circles a bit and can be somewhat annoying.
We scheduled another NST and OB visit for this Monday and again this next Thursday, as necessary. We were told that they don’t let anyone go over 42 weeks, so by the end of this coming week at the latest, we should have our new addition. The OB we saw prior to this last visit seemed to indicate we’d be moving along into the induction phase much more quickly than we are, so who knows. Seeing a variety of OBs in the end-stage of it all seems rather ineffective.
Stacey’s been increasingly uncomfortable lately, so she may well progress on her own just fine. We’re all getting impatient, though…
Again, more as we know it.
