37 weeks!

The time is finally here! Parker is full term and ready to come out whenever he feels like it! Everything is looking good... they said "my blood work is by-the-book perfect", "bub is as healthy and average as anyone could have hoped" and "they will see us back at the hospital on Parker's birthday"! So now it is just a waiting game...

We have had quite a few people asking us how his birthday will work... with the time change. His birthday will be the day he is born. If he is born on March 17th at 2:20 pm in Australia, then that will be what is on his birth certificate and will remain his birthday. If you are still confused, think of it this way: if a baby is born in California at 11:00 pm on March 1st.... that is the baby's birthday (March 1st) even if he has grandparents who live in New York where the time is 2:00 am on March 2nd.

Oh my goodness! How exciting! I think about your up coming due date often....AND WITH EXCITEMENT!!
Isn't it crazy that it could be "any day" or still 4 weeks away! Babies have such funny timing :)
I cannot wait to see you in May!
