Today is my last day as a non-parent. Tuesday I will be heading to Bellevue for our scheduled induction. So what does this mean for Johnny and I? I have a nice list.
1. We will have a cute little baby to care for.
2. We will not get much sleep for about 18 years. (That's a really long time).
3. We will have lots of bottles to wash.
4. Johnny will have some diapers to change. (Notice I said Johnny).
5. I will have a shopping buddy when I go to the Gap.
6. We will have quite the posse when we go for a walk with two dogs and one stroller.
7. I probably won't be able to sleep in on Saturday mornings.
8. I will have an excuse to buy kid cereal.
9. Maybe I will finally be able to convince John to buy Nintendo Wii.
10. We will finally have the opportunity to be parents.
I have created another voting poll. How long will it take to convince Baby Hickok to make his entrance? In other words, how long will it take for the induction to work?
Please keep us in your prayers. We will keep you posted.
