Congratulations Jeana and Geary!! Head over to Linhart Live to see the newest additon! Just a bit of trivia - Jeana and I found out we were pregnant on the same day.

Update: At my doctor's appointment today they said I am still 3 cm dialated. So nothing new. It's spring break now, but I am also banned from traveling any more than an hour away from the hospital (we actually live 45 minutes away), so it will be a Spring Break spent at home pretty much.

Baby Robinson.....coming soon

Every day I get a few more signs that labor is coming soon. I am definately in the pre-labor stage. I really don't know. It could be any minute or in two weeks, which is frustrating for a planner like me. I am making myself focus on spending every minute enjoying the fact that I am still childless. It will never be just me and Paul again. I will never have so much free time. I will never again get to enjoy this class of students like I do now. My house will not always be so quiet. Still, the anticipation of the birth is driving us crazy. I have another appointment on Friday morning and I am hoping to find out if I am dialated any more than I was last week. Yesterday we had a lady come to our house and give us a childbirth class (this is free, if you can believe it, through Parents As Teachers) and she taught us some breathing techniques that I actually liked better than the ones I learned at the hospital class. Paul was able to sit through this one with very few problems (he has an aversion to hospitals), the lady was very sensitive to his problem. But like Paul says, "We're probably going to forget all this stuff anyway." Check out Linhart Live often because Jeana is also close to being able to tell her birth story!
