Three's a Crowd

Sorry for the teaser, but I don't mean Nate, baby Uga and me. I mean Nate, my dad and me! My dad is staying with us again this week...Nate's drive to work from our house is at least 45 minutes, and the hospital is 45 minutes from our house. If my water were to break while I was home alone this week, it would take me an hour and a half to get to the hospital after Nate came home to pick me up. I will need intravenous antibiotics soon after my water breaks to ensure baby Uga doesn't get sick from the Group B Strep that I carry. Needless to say, "Paw-Paw" (That's what Little Ross will call Grandpa Flesner!) is not only giving us peace of mind this week, he's my driver!



News flash: my mom called my dad and told him they are cutting beans at home (He's a farmer and grows corn and soy beans.), so let's hope he can control the urge to harvest his crops until this weekend.

There is one major difference between this week and last - I am settling into the laziness! For those of you wondering why the heck I've been sitting on my butt these last few weeks and not working, I am lucky enough to work for a company that gives expectant moms 2 weeks off prior to their due date without cutting into their actual maternity leave. Gotta love that!

And to reconfirm, tomorrow is my due date and NO BABY YET! Are you kidding me? (Of course I wanted to put an f-bomb somewhere in the previous sentence!) To my friends at work, don't I always?!

Your dad is sooo cute! I cannot wait for the phone call that you are in labor! So exciting!
