Hello everyone. It is the beginning of a new week and still no Baby Zander. We all talk and act like he is late when in fact we are just excited and anxiously awaiting his arrival. Marj is feeling more miserable by the day and really thought that yesterday was the "day" but Zander proved her wrong. Things have come together in the Harris house (thanks to Talon and Maria, and Becca and Kric Kric). Now all we need is a baby to lay in the crib or gently rock in the cradle or swing in the swing. Oh, the fun things that babies do as we oooh and aaah at them. There are so many special people waiting to see him, to love him, to help spoil him rotten. Do you ever wonder what babies must be thinking as they watch us make silly faces and talk in a funny language that only we can understand. Just wait until we start feeding him and he sees us making the same "mouthy" faces that we want him to make as we "fly the airplane" in for a landing.
Marj has a doctor's appointment tomorrow. It will be interesting to see how much she has dilated and what progress she has made in the last week. Maybe she will get another cool 3D ultrasound picture of our bundle of joy. Once again, we will get a better idea of how much he weighs and just how big this bundle of joy is going to be when he finally decides to grace us with his presence.
There are so many monkeys at his house just waiting for him to come out and play. I picked up a surprise for James over the weekend ... "Five Silly Monkeys" so that he can read to his firstborn son. When he gets tired of playing with the monkeys, John Deere will take over.
Stay tuned for more news from the Harris home as we await the phone call that it is time to head to Lexington Medical Center. Hopefully I'll be able to control my excitement and not run out the door immediately. I have to remember that these things take time and that I do have time to take a shower and get dressed. No going to the hospital in my pajamas so that I don't miss his birth.
Love to all until next time.

Between you, me, and Becca, do you think Marge and James will get a chance to hold him? We may have to have a raffle for a chance to hold him!! Hurry Zander. Hat is finished and so is a blanket, so you can come out now!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDad thought he had time to take a shower when mom was ready to go to the hospital with me. Nannie pulled him out with shampoo still in his hair. Every year on my birthday we always laugh as he reminds me he still had shampoo in his hair when I was born. So, you might not have time to take that shower!!! When you see Dad at church ask him about this. He will probably turn red, but it will be so worth it!!
