Reyes Reprieve

In preparing for our hospital visit you can say there were three check lists we were using: The must-have / must-do list. Then there's the it would be nice to get this done before we check in list... and finally the you've really got no business worrying about that right now list. With that said, it is safe to say that everything we did today was on list #3. With yesterday's letdown already fading into distant memory, today was quite the normal day for the trio, soon to be quartet. Daddy took advantage of his day off from work and mowed the lawn, cleaned the garage, and tackled a handful of other non-essential house chores. V spent quality time with her mom, who arrived just before yesterday's make believe hospital trip. The two of them made a trip to a Japanese steakhouse for lunch and also took one last pregnancy stroll in preparation for the baby's arrival. And Justin went to daycare, and was home in time to enjoy 70 degree temps while he cruised on his motorized ATV. So business as usual at the Reyes residence. I guess you can call it our last taste of normalcy for a while. In all, an enjoyable productive day, and perhaps to some extent the silver lining to our 24-hour pause.

As for tonight, V just called the hospital an hour ago, and I'm happy to say that things are a go (for-real for-real this time). Checkin is 8:30 pm and from there it'll be time to rock and roll. Oh happy day. Stay tuned.
