Since we are on waiting time
Posted by helmut
We are in waiting time now. Mom is being able to take a quick cat nap an Lauren just called to ask how Hayden takes his nap. Funny, I never thought about it. I guess it was just a given the ritual before he goes to bed for a nap. Also we were explaining Lauren what Hayden does in the morning for breakfast.
In the mornings during work week I usually wake him up and get him from his crib to change his diaper. He spends a few seconds gathering all the puffy toys he sleeps with. One he gathers them then I take him to the changing table where we have a small chat and then he decides what toy he wants to take with him for breakfast. I guess it is a ritual and never thought of it that way…
I was also remembering of when Hayden was born. Everything went so fast, I know we comment about how fast 2.5 hour delivery was amazing. At least I think so. I’m sure the unbereable pain made it feel like 2.5 days but it was great to see Hayden so quickly. The delivery room was empty since no one was expecting the outcome, but in a matter of minutes the empty delivery room was filled with doctors, nurses and tools to help a new baby come to life. Minutes later he was alive and making a very familiar sound “crying”.

Quick update.
We headed to the hospital at 6pm yesterday (16th) and things seem to be going well but they slowed down so we headed back home at around 10:00pm. Kari spent most of the night having contractions and by 6am we headed back to the hospital to find out that this time we were here to stay.
Kari is doing ok at the moment, even though the contractions have been more severe the doctors were able to give her some medication that helps to aliviste the pain some, not completely of course but it seems like it is helping a little… More to come
Almost there but with a few hickups

As most of you know we are days away from the birth of our precious girl. We are very excited by the fact that it’s almost time but with the wonderful experience of having 4 wisdom teeth removed and one more (just on case) it has made the wait a whole lot more exciting. Specially since I’m not used to take drugs I feel like I’m in a different world for few minutes at the time.
