A Week and a Half

We only have 10 more days and Jack will be here. Our friends Richard and Ginny just have their third child as well. Their second child, Nolan and Lex are not very far apart (Nolan in March, Lex in June) and now Lexi was born last week, and Jack will be born in 10 days!! If we keep this up Ginny's fourth child and our third child will have the same birthdays!!! That would be weird but not unexpected. Eerytime I call her to ell them I am pregnant she tells me the same thing. It is craziness.

As far as the arrival of Jack... I am ready! My legs are just the same as they were with Lex... like balloons ready to pop. I wish I could pop them. He keeps moving up into the one side which is REALLY uncomfortable, but I puch on his rump and he moves. He is very active still although today Lex has been climbing on me causing very little movement.

Getting other things ready for this birth...

Substutute- check
Lesson Plans ready- almost check (one weeks to type and get copies made for)
Biz Town stuff ready- almost check (just need to get through this week)
House clean- well it was, but Lex and I were home all day... the family room was clean thanks to Scott, but now we need to clean again... in time it will happen.
Grocery shopping- Well we have some food... I need to get to Wegmans and Super Walmart

I think we are on the way. I am almost completely packed. I jsut have to finish Scott's bag and Lex's. Mine and Jack's are 99% ready.

While in the hospital, I am hoping to have a laptop with internet connection seeing we are only allowed to have three guests and Scott is one of them. So the other two are my parents because they are fully retired and can come up during the day to relieve Scott. Jack has to stay inthe room with me, which will be problematic because I will not be able to get up for the first day, so I will be calling the nurses if no one is there with me. This is all because of the Swine Flu!! Policy does not always meet up with Practicality. (And the doctors agree).

Dr. Pearlman thinks that Jack will be 7 lbs, 5 oz.

We will have to see.
