40 Weeks

No, I am not talking about a new J Lo movie or Bravo reality series. That’s the number of weeks my dear wife has been pregnant. There is some dispute about whether it’s 40 weeks today or Wednesday but, you’d be wise to give her the benefit of the doubt.We had a doctor’s appointment this afternoon and although she is dilated a few centimeters, nothing appears imminent.It’s been a long, bumpy - as in the somersault kicks he seems to be doing in there - road. You can literally see him try to push his way out of her belly button sometimes. So I think we’re ready for this now. This is probably the week something will happen.We’re going to announce the name after he’s born and a fingers and toes count has been completed. We’ll send out an e-mail as soon as possible

right after that happens. But come on back soon and hopefully we’ll have a new post up with more details about “the cascade” of events that is “delivery.”
