Birthday

It's official: Baby Carmen will be arriving on Friday, September 12, 2008 at 7:30 am by way of Cesarean section. It's not exactly the way we would've planned it, but the little bugger just isn't turning, and the whole manual turning thing doesn't sound like a good idea. The whole idea freaked me out at first, but now I'm getting used to it, and of course, I love the idea that I can put it on my calendar. I realize C-sections just aren't as big a deal as they used to be, but it will be my first operation, my first IV, my first real hospitalization-it's all just a little overwhelming.

So, for the next 18 days I will be wrapping stuff up at work and taking it as easy as possible. It may be time to turn the cable TV back on.......
