Labor Eve

Yesterday Robyn and I woke up with the great idea of getting lots of baby stuff done with this extra day off. The list looked a little like this:

  • Buy stroller

  • Get new dresser

  • get curtains for baby's room

  • buy warm clothes for baby (we got a lot of summer dresses for the little one)

  • sign up for diaper service

  • find a pediatrician

  • wash and put away all the new baby clothes

  • finish thank you cards from shower

  • put together email list of people who will want to know when labor begins

It was a good list, full of useful, necessary things to do (only four weeks from expected due date). So I looked at it and said, "hmm, maybe we should go to Santa Cruz instead."

And Robyn replied, "I think Napa is warmer right now."

So I looked on the Internet for a few minutes, reserved a room in Calistoga, scheduled some massages and off we went. We're back today, with nothing crossed off our list, but man was that sun and massage nice.

"put together email list of people who will want to know when labor begins"

Sounds as though the labor has already begun!

I'm glad you got to get away for some precious R & R, though.
