*Pound Pound Pound* Who the hell is pounding on the door while I'm trying to sleep? *Ding Ding Ding* Who the hell is ringing the doorbell? *HEY, ANYONE HOME* someone yells INSIDE MY HOUSE! Turns out mrtl's been trying to call and I never heard a peep since I was asleep. The neighbor has busted into the house to wake me, since MRTL's at the hospital BEING INDUCED....(don't worry, the neighbor had a key)
More later

I have my fingers crossed for you guys! I hope today is the day!! (Especially for mrtl's sake!) Please come out and meet us Frida!

Thank goodness SOMETHING woke you up. Not that I'd be any better. Of course, I'd be the one in labor in this instance.
(For a second I thought it was going to be a story about that annoying kid neighbor.)
Thinking many good thoughts...

Yay! And it's not Wednesday! I hope everything is alright, though....hoping for a speedy and safe delivery for you guys!

Wheeeeeeeeee!! This totally made my day!!!!! Congratulations on the impending Frida!

Dude, how deep is your sleep? Actually, I totally understand. If I were pregnant, going into labor MAY wake me up. But that's a big MAYBE! Let alone a phone call.
Anyway, GO MRTL! And GO FRIDA! Or, really, COME FRIDA :)

Is it too much to expect a minute by minute update? Kidding, I know it is, but I'm like a stalker with the amount of times I'm visiting this site lately!
Posted by: Bente | 2006.02.16 at 10:24 PM
Is it weird that I have John Stamos in my head right now? You know, when he was singing "Having my BABY!" while Rebecca delivered the twins? Because he was doped up on painkillers? Because he just had his appendix removed? You with me?!
Wooo, good times.
