We are getting very close. We have passed 37 weeks. All systems appear to be "go". Some serious anticipation happening here.
Today, Karin put together a Pack'n'Play. You parents know what that is. For you non-parents, it's a play-pen looking device with multiple levels and attachments.
So, at around 2:00 PM today, I headed upstairs. There was Karin, on the floor, in the bedroom, assembling the Pack,'n'Play. In the 10+ years that I have known Karin, she has not shown the least bit of interest in assembling anything. I, on the other hand, have assembled computers, shelving, furniture, toys, networks, models... I have installed appliances, a satellite dish, paintings, pictures, shelving units... I have fixed the trash disposal, replaced parts in our cars, repaired bicycles.... You get the idea.
Today was the first time, from what I can tell, that assembly of furniture ever crossed Karin's mind. But today, when I went upstairs, and found Karin elbows-deep in a half-assembled Pack'n'Play, I asked her what she was doing. She calmly, and matter-of-factly, replied, "I'm assembling the Pack'n'Play," as though furniture assembly was her normal 2:00 PM activity. "Oh," I said, "Why are you assembling the Pack'n'Play?" "Because the baby is coming," she replied.
"Does this mean it's time to go to the hospital?" I wondered to myself. To make a long story short, it was not. Karin had just decided that she would take on furniture-assembly at this juncture in her life.
In other news, we have both had baby dreams. Since dreams are premonitions, I can now confirm that our son is extremely well behaved and looks a lot like this -terrific dancer.
