Our dance card is full!

Yesterday we saw the obstetrician for the first time. Our baby is approximately 5 pounds 13 ounces and looks to be very healthy. Our Birth Mother is approximately 36 weeks along and doing well. An ultrasound was done and we got to see our little one for the first time. That was amazing! Our Birth Mother will deliver via cesarean between June 5th and 10th. That is somewhere between 13 and 18 days away. This baby seems to be coming as fast as a freight train!

Our dance card seems to be full at present. The list includes painting a mural, making three cradle sheets, buying a crib, registering for shower gifts, filling out our leave paperwork, filling out HR benefit paperwork, contacting our pediatrician, buying basic essentials/diapers and spending quality time with our Birth Mother. We have many things to complete and little time to spare. Currently, we have outings planned for Sunday and Monday with our Birth Mother.

On another note, today is our 18th anniversary! We have arrange for some alone time that includes a day trip away from all this endless activity. We look at this entire experience as a wonder anniversary gift. We have had much to celebrate in the last few weeks and more to come as our first Father's day approaches!
