Nathan is home!

Nathan is home!! Hooray! I’m hoping that we will be able to finish the things on my to-do list because that’s all I need to get done before I am ready for Piglet to come. I feel like I can’t relax until they are done. The big thing for me is getting the car situation worked out. Like, now! Because otherwise it’s going to be tres difficile to get the baby home from the hospital! Everything else is little, but I would like to see it done. And then we’ll be ready!



We got to fly our kite yesterday—it was loads of fun. It’s meant to look like a blue Macaw and at one point it fell on the ground and a little boy ran up pointing and yelling, “Birdy! Birdy!” Then a while later I was innocently standing in the field and the “bird” dive-bombed my head! I was glad we finally got to fly it.


I thought I’d respond to the comments on my last two posts here, rather than in the comment section since I’m not sure that people ever see when I write back to them there.


Hannatu—I love your “puffy” story. I didn’t mow the yard. I considered it, and may have if we had a mower. But I am too lazy, and my husband said to pay someone to do it, and I was glad not to.


Dusty Penguin—Yay for you on the weight loss! You won’t have to sleep on the couch OR the futon. I sold the futon and since the motor in our air mattress is kaput I borrowed Melissa’s air mattress. It’s very comfy. That’s a good idea about spreading the weeks out so I can have help for three weeks, but I think Nathan really wants to be home with us the first week. And he wants to see you too. Yes, I have a regular mop.


Melissa Larabee—It was totally fine that you laughed. It was funny! I laughed too. Later.

I have a Dr. appointment tomorrow, and then we should be scheduling an ultrasound next week so Dr. H. can see how Piglet is doing in there. I'm really excited--I can't wait to see my little man!
