Congratulations!
This was the weekend of newborn babies apparently. We visited THREE newborns yesterday - my friend's son who was born 2 weeks ago and then BIL and SIL had their twin girls on Saturday. And I remembered Cicero was due on Halloween so I'm glad baby didn't wait too long after that to make his appearance!
C has started using the word 'damn' randomly even though he knows it's an 'adult' word that he shouldn't use. On Halloween night, he was with 2 of his friends for ToT. As they were running towards one of the last houses, he screamed at the top of his lungs 'you have to ring the damn doorbell.' And he said it again last night taking his shirt off in frustration. Amusing, but no.
J thought trick or treating was the best thing ever. After a couple houses, he figured out not to go inside, but the first one he got all the way across the living room almost to the kitchen.
Last night when we went out for our regular walk he tried to go up to the house next door. Then he was calling for the moon (behind the clouds); every few steps he would stop and lean towards the direction where it should be and yell "mooooooooo!" And yesterday he had a hard time going down for a nap and finally fell asleep in the middle of the floor.
Successfully navigated X's 6th birthday party... Enough so that the day itself was really chill.
Fed the kids fruit, white chocolate covered popcorn with a blue tint and bright green cupcakes. DD reported to me this morning that her poop was blue and green. Whoopsie!
I started having contractions all night long- kept me up most of the night & now they have stopped! WTF!?!? either go into labor or don't! I hate this waiting...thought 2nd time would (hopefully) be faster...not looking so good on that front...

DD threw a huge fit about eating dinner last night, including gagging and spitting out almost every bite. She got an early shower and almost fell asleep on the couch. Instead of just putting her to bed, i asked if she wanted to snuggle until Daddy was done with the dishes. She said she didn't want a book, and was snoring on my lap by 7:40.
It was so sweet. She barely woke up when we put her in her bed.
Linus was born earlier this morning. I will post a picture later when I'm feeling semi-human.
Congratulations! I hope he already has a special blue blanket.
He has a natural colored cabled blanket that is currently at Knit Picks for photography because they're selling the pattern I designed for it on their website.

Ben was sent to the principal's office for saying "hell". But he was talking about the actual place and she was like, "um, maybe don't do that at school."

I had contractions that started and stopped each of the three days before I actually went into labor. Then yesterday I woke up leaking amniotic fluid but contractions didn't really start at all until 5 in the evening. I went in at 9 to get checked out to see if my amniotic sac had ruptured and contractions were only every 10-15 minutes at that point. I was admitted because of the rupture, got an epidural just after ththe World Series ended--so midnightish?, and had him at 4am after 5 minutes of pushing. M was 52 hours from contractions starting to delivery with 2 hours of pushing.

BLEH! lol..... Last time I had pretty solid contractions from midnight till 3PM when I went to the hospital, begged for an Epi at midnight & quickly dilated to 9/10 after that & they popped my water. Pushed for 10 min & born just before 5AM.
