Update-1:46pm

We are still in Labor and Delivery room 1. We just saw the doctor. He says there is little progress with the natural labor so it looks like we will have a c-section later this afternoon. The Doc. will come in one last time at 4pm and see how things are, then we will make a final decision. I think at this point we are cool either way. Michelle is keeping us busy with all of her weather knowledge. You can post a great joke or a hospital activited so we can stay busy. Thanks so much for your continued prayers.

Noon Update

we are currently still waiting! We are hoping to see Dr. Cimino soon. We hear he is on the floor, but getting ready to do a c-section on another patient before he comes to see us. Michelle is very hungry but doing well. We will continue to keep you posted.

Arrived at the Hospital

we are at the hospital preparing for the birth of our 3rd son. No Caleb yet! Michelle is just settling in. We are not sure about a timeline or when Caleb will arrive. We are going to try induce labor but if it doesn't happen we will do a c-section at some point. I will try to update my blog from time-to-time with updates. Thanks so much for your prayers! We look forward to seeing and hearing from you all.

Kid's Music

this video made me laugh. There is nothing spiritual about it, but it is funny. Especially if you have kids.



It would definatly make children's music more interesting.

Thoughts about today:

Facebook and other stuff

I’ve been a little busy lately so I haven’t had a chance to blog recently. I’m hoping to do it more even though we are approaching the birth of our son. His name will be Caleb Matthew just in case you wanted to know. I know he is already going to be one of the best looking guys along with Jonathon and Nate. We will get a chance to see the doctor next week and probably find out just how close we are to this incredible life.

I finally gave in today! To facebook that is. I have purposely rebelled against it until now. Every one has raved about it, so we’ll see. I love tech stuff! I’d love to hear what you think is best about facebook besides all those people popping on screen for possible friend request that I have no idea who they are.
