We haven't had a post here in a while so I will throw one out there.
By Wednesday of this week, I should be a grandpa for the 2nd time! My daughter was due yesterday, and if she hasn't gotten things going by tomorrow, they are going to start her on Tuesday. It is a baby boy! Our first grandkid was a girl, she is 8 now. Excited to add a boy to the mix. My daughter and SIL have been married for close to 6 years now, so it is kind of a miracle baby since they have had fertility issues. Just happened. They are thrilled, and of course scared *****ess, as they should be. We talked last night for an hour, and we told her all of our horror stories about child birth, like our first baby came after nearly 48 hours of labor, when he got lodged kind of in her hip and they had to do an emergency C-section. That was horrible. Mostly for me, she was drugged to the moon. Our last baby was a case of stealth-labor. She was having contractions, but they were very irregular, over a period of maybe 48 hours. Finally she said she was feeling some real pressure in her lower abdomen. We went to the hospital and they got her in a room and checked, and she was already dilated to about a 7. So far enough along that they couldn't do an epidural as it could stall the delivery. So she went from emergency surgery on the first to a mostly natural delivery on the last. All across the board.
Anyway we are really excited. We are coming to Utah on Wednesday after I get off work, and will be there through Sunday when we come back to Cali.
