So here I sit. It is 10:00 p.m. in the delivery room. My beautiful and courageous wife is resting after her medicine. New Years Eve, a baby on the way. Not sure if this little guy wants to be born in 2013 or 2014, December or January, or the 31st or the 1st. So many choices and it is all up to him. We had friends and family in for a "party". Jimmy Gardner brought whiskey, Melissa and Jet brought the wine and champagne. They also brought take out burgers from the Ale Works. Fred and Angie hung out and had a few cocktails. Angie, not Fred. Now all are gone to give Momma some much needed rest. The room is quiet. Hopefully, our first born is snuggled in with Grandma and Grandpa at home. What an amazing night.

Just hanging around waiting to get this thing underway...

Before we left for the hospital this morning and before Greta headed off to school, we took one last family photo with the 3 of us.  Wow, what an amazing feeling to know we will have one more member of the family as soon as this evening.  It is now 1:08 p.m. on December 31, 2013 and we are waiting for the operating room to be ready in case of emergency with the inversion.  No one expects there to be any issues, but need to have it available as a precaution.  They are also not allowing children in this portion of the hospital because of the flu.  Our little Greta will have to wait until we bring the baby home to meet him in person.  This is VERY disappointing for us all, but we do understand their reasoning.  Fred and Angie are at home watching the dogs and will pick G up at school later.  

We are back!  December 31, 2013.  We are heading to the hospital at 11:30 a.m. to get this new baby turned and get the delivery on the way!  We couldn't be more excited to meet the newest and final member of our family.  Check back for updates!
