Timmy and Carrie went to the hospital last night. When we found out, there was much revelry here in Washington. But I called a few hours ago and it looks like they ended up getting sent back home. The due date is still a few weeks out, so I guess this is fine, except that I am excited and can’t wait for news of the birth.
When we got the call from Tim, we were all in a pizza parlor getting ready to eat after seeing Up (which is as fabulous as everyone is saying it is). This was Holly’s celebratory birthday dinner, even though her birthday was this past Friday. I thought we had an eventful weekend, with Holly’s birthday, a couple of Little League baseball games and a school production of the Wiz.
But think how eventful Timmy and Carrie’s weekend must have been, with a race up RT 1 to get to the hospital.
You want to talk about being stressed!!! I was 250 miles from our hospital! And Carrie’s telling me “Papi…its time” hahahah Time for what I responded! She rolled her eyes at me!!! Then it kicked in! TIME hahahhaha time to be a daddy hahahahha, False alarm though, hopefully this week! Stand by for a phone call Popps!!!
Hang in there, son. It is stressful to have a baby, especially your first one. But, it passes. And then it gets more stressful. And then it passes again. Pretty soon, you are used to it.
You two guys are doing great. I can’t wait to see the baby!
Standing by, aye!
