I knew we wanted to create a blog--we've been talking about it for months but neither of us seemed to have the motivation to actually do it. Finally I signed us up for this nifty spot in cyberspace, but couldn't think of what to write as the inaugural post. I took the easy route and posted some
Youtube links. Now, for a more legitimate start, I'll bring this site up to speed with how we got to March 18, 2008.
Almost as soon as we moved into our well-painted closet in South Euclid, Ohio, we got pregnant (I never know which instances of referring to the pregnancy will incur ire, so I err on the side of including myself). This week we will likely enjoy the fruits of that discovery.
We are nervously anxious to see how Logan and Madison respond to having a baby brother. We're pretty sure Logan can cope, since he already has a baby sister. But Madison has evidenced some jealous tendencies when Jenny holds other babies. And I don't think it's in Madison's nature to enjoy sharing attention.
Today we will go hit the ultrasound machine and get our fortune read. The doctor has indicated that the baby is measuring large, and will permit us to induce whenever we'd like, even though the official due date is not until this Sunday. If the ultrasound confirms what the doctor believes, we think we will induce on Wednesday. When I say "we," I mean everyone but Jenny. She, she thinks, would prefer to let things happen naturally. She has never delivered naturally, though--each time previously her water broke and we had to induce--and it's not like the baby's losing weight in there. Ultimately, it's Jenny's decision. We'll know by lunchtime what her decision is.
