Amanda’s doctor decided earlier this week to induce labor (because the baby is big, while Amanda is small). So we are now at the hospital, in our room, watching Jeopardy! Overall Amanda is doing fine, although she is a bit uncomfortable. The mid-wife said her first exam “was perfect” – whatever that means. I’m just observing from the sidelines and doing my best to stay out of the way. In two more hours she gets to eat something, and we’ll be watching the Braves in Game-1 of the NLDS. What a great day this is shaping up to be!
Ready, Set, Go!

Hey Travis! Great to hear from you. It must be fairly late in the evening there by now. It’s 11:30 AM Friday here. I was just saying to Helen, Holly & Melanie that it looks like we missed having young Cletus arrive on Holly’s birthday, but still, he’s going to be an October baby which is great.
Tell Amanda that we send our love and best wishes. She looks happy and comfortable in the hospital bed. Maybe they will give her a glass of white wine after the baby is born?
All the best you two.
