birthday

so, they've finally given me a date for the c-section. it is september 3rd. i have to be at the hospital at 7:30 in the morning. now, this is assuming that i make it to this point. last time i had a baby she was so early i didn't even make it to the scheduled day. this wednesday i will be 36 weeks along and therefore considered full term. derek says that i'm not allowed to have the baby this week, but anytime after saturday is fine with him. i'd like to have the baby before the end of the month. my sister is coming to visit and i would like to have the baby by the time that she gets here with her kids. not that it's a big deal, but when am i going to get to show off the baby to my family? anyway, i need to think about when the baby will be blessed and let people know about that. well, gotta go. the olympics are on!

all right - here's the deal... i do not want to come for a visit and have everyone in the hospital visiting you!!! call me selfish - so - either have the baby well before i get there - or suffer it out until after I leave - and just send photos later. (for rude! - but hey - we gotta play bob!)

i want to have the baby BEFORE you come so that i'm not in the hospital and i can show off the baby, but playing bob would be easier without holding a baby, so maybe i'll stick it out and just send pictures later.

I just have to say I love the tasty music. BTW how many cups of sugar does it take to get to the moon? Hey yuck!! Anyway, I can't wait for the phone call from Derek. Please post pictures asap so those of us who live far away can see her.
