Back in the Dugout...

Well from the previous post "In the Bullpen..." till now a lot has happened. I had a Black and Blue salad from O'Charlies, poured me a cup of coffee, made a few phone calls about a survey, and I guess the most important thing was getting pulled out of the bullpen and put back on the bleacher in the dugout. Baseball analogies might not be the best approach, so I'll just put it to you straight. The baby decided that it isn't quite ready to make its appearance. Not much has changed since our last meeting with the Doc. Brittney got a haircut, but the baby hasn't continued to make it's way down. It's just kinda hanging around waiting. So we made an appointment for next Thursday March the 15th at 5:30am to go to the Hospital and induce (if nothing happens before). So Kelly Crossland- you were a late entry, but seem to be the most accurate so far. I guess anything can still happen, but Esther was the same way. We made an appt to get her. Usually I feel that we are more spontaneous than this, and making an appointment to have a baby just doesn't sound right.
But here are some of the historic parts of that possible day: MARCH 15th
