Hoo boy. What have we gotten ourselves into?
Oh well, too late now!
So today we been saying our farewells to sleep, and to at least a significant chunk of our adult conversation. We also had a couple of visitors come to say one last goodbye to the belly.
Shhh, keep it down, she’s right up there! Tell you what, we promise we’ll have a good long chat, cousin to cousin, once you’re out. But for now zip it! You know what they say, the uterus bone is connected to the ear bone.
Hi Auntalisa, mind if I see how my little cousin’s doing?
Psst, hey. No really, they’re right. Just wait and we’ll have all the time in the world to swap parenting horror stories. Oooh, you are terrrrible. I can’t wait to hear more … and I’ve got a few that’ll raise the lanugo on the back of your neck.
Aren’t kids great, entertaining themselves like they do? Who knows what they were mumbling about down there.
Meanwhile, we adults were busy planning for the future. Since I’m sick and tired of AL having all the fun, I’ve started planning my costume for next Halloween. Fortunately I’ve got a generous partner, so she was willing to chip in and help me get a head start on the body suit.
Looks like last year’s best-male costume trophy is going to be getting some company!
(Ain’t it grand that there’s no maturity-certification process for parenthood?)
Bring on the boy!
