We just got back from the doctor. Things had progressed enough that he didn’t question proceeding with induction, although he still seems to think it could be a long process. So, unless something happens on its own in the next 10 hours (and clearly THAT is likely with our track record!), we will check into the hospital late tonight for this whole adventure to start.
Geoff will post birth info on this site as soon as he can after we have news.
I’m pretty much a big wimp who has never been a patient in a hospital so the fact that there is now a DATE and TIME is making me a bit nervous. Please excuse the blatant neediness, but any positive thoughts would be gratefully appreciated. This prenatal blogging journey has been so fun and I am ever thankful to you for humoring me in your reading of my thoughts.
Lovies to each of you! And if anyone has any suggestions on what to actually DO with a baby, let me know. We have no idea….
This is so exciting! I’m sure everything will go VERY smoothly tonight and tomorrow. It’s very understandable that you would be starting to get nervous about the particular date and time…but it’s so thrilling to finally know that the time has (almost) come! As far as what to actually DO with a baby…I’ve read plenty of books…but that means nothing compared to first-hand knowledge.
You’ll figure it all out and be WONDERFUL parents. Congratulations! We’ll be thinking of you and praying for you lots!!!

Don’t worry about the hospital, they’ll take great care of you! And you’ll have a cute baby boy to take home when you’re done there! You’ll figure out what to do with the baby. The typical new baby day goes something like this: love, feed, love, change diaper, love, try to get it to sleep, love, take photos and play with, love, feed, love, change diaper…..

I can’t believe this is actually going to happen! I’m so glad Sheils is there with you guys, and as someone who works in a hospital, let me tell you they will take fabulous care of you….and Baboo. In fact, you may decide you don’t really want to go home since the nurses will do everything for you.
We are SO excited and can’t wait to see the first pix of the expanding Kenton family. Lovies to you and Seth! We’ll be praying for a smooth delivery.
