Baby stuff    [ News ]

Wow, we're on week 34 or 35 now, and finally have the majority of stuff we'll need for the first few days after our baby comes into the world.   We've got the baby room painted and decorated, the crib assembled, a dresser/changing table put together, a comfy rocking chair/recliner moved in, and various & sundry baby supplies purchased from Babies'R'Us.

We've been taking lamaze classes at the local hospital, so Jessica & I get to go on Wednesday nights with seven or eight other pregnant couples to learn about childbirth and breathing methods and what's supposed to happen during labor and delivery.   She's getting very pregnant [pictures should be forthcoming!] and ready to have the baby soon.

The expected delivery date is somewhere between December 24th (latest estimate from the last ultrasound) and December 31st (original estimate).   We're both hoping for a tax-break baby, so a bit earlier would be better, but we're both excited about the impending arrival!
