Mike has done a good job as the pregnant husband with housework, doctor's appointments, and best of all . . . meals! He has cooked many dinners, sometimes from scratch. We enjoyed fresh pasta tossed with sundried tomatoes, mushrooms, and basil. Thanks to Aunt Kris for the pasta attachment for the mixer. He has also made me some non-alcoholic cocktails to sip on while I sit with an ice pack on my achy back and my feet in his lap. As ordinary things become a little more difficult (I was panting by the time I got my laundry basket and started a load) he has stepped up to ease some of my tasks. I'm very glad we didn't wait this long to clean out and paint the baby's room.
We have hit that time when we have had to start thinking about packing a bag for the hospital. Hopefully, we won't need it until June 3, but better safe than sorry. And, both of us have a type A personality that means we get things done early. There are quite a few suggestion lists out there to help us sort out what we need. Over the next couple of weeks, we'll gather those items and probably make the bag official after I get back from Kansas City. A trip I am looking forward to! It's been a while since I've seen my KC friends and family. I'll probably get to see where Grandma Judy's been hiding out the past two years in ministerial school. So the question arises. Once we leave the hospital with our 2 day old baby, what the hell do we do?

Pray, honey, pray. Hopefully he will appear with your initiative, personality and practicality. It would be beneficial if he was caring, jovial and with a broad intelligence range like Mike. He also needs some of his Dad's physical attributes. Looks? Well, perhaps after his Grandma and Gammie.
ReplyDeleteBut the real plus would be if he is just plain funny like his Poppy.
