Another wonderfully uneventful week. D-Day (as in “delivery-day”) is getting close enough for us to make specific preparations. Geralyn has put together a “birth plan”, which is a document explaining how we want things to go down during delivery. Here’s a question for all you mothers out there: Did you do a birth plan? We’re not sure if it’s a common thing or not, but it seemed like a good idea. It mainly specifies our preferences for things like delivery position, use of Pitocin, epidural, c-section incisions (if necessary), etc. Anyone else come to the hospital armed with one of these?
I also installed the car seat bases in both the cars and left them there, just so there’s no chance of being caught with that particular detail not taken care of. The nursery is also 99.9% finished, with stuff hanging on the walls and everything. There was mention of a lamp or a valance yet to be purchased, but since I only knew what one of those things is, I let it be.

The next big thing coming up is the childcare class we’re taking next weekend and the weekend after that. They’re pretty much full-day classes chock full of unfiltered parenting wisdom. I expect to get to play with plastic babies again.
