Hello from Waukesha Memorial Hospital

They have a free wireless network here at the hospital! Cool, eh?

Oh, yeah, I suppose you're wondering why we're here. Kathie started having contractions this morning. So here we are. They are trying to slow down the contractions as she is still only 3 cm's dilated and it's a little too soon. I was wrong earlier... we're at 36 weeks 5 days... which is not 37 weeks. So they want us to wait as long as we can.

It's 6 PM and they told us the doctor would be in a little while later to take a look at how things are going and make a decision on whether we go in for the c-section tonight or not. We're a little dissapointed as our doctor isn't available, but I'm sure the on call doctor is fine (even if he looks like he's 12).

Kathie is resting as comfortably as she can. The contractions are still pretty steady and about 4 minutes apart. She's very hungry though, as she can't eat.

Braden is home with Grandma, hopefully behaving himself.

We'll keep everyone up to date as soon as we can. I just realized that I'll be able to have a picture of the new baby up within hours of the birth for everyone to see! Technology is so cool!

Be sure to tell Dr. Taylor "hi" from the Scotts...he should remember me as I DEMANDED him to get the giant baby out of me...I don't care if it's 1AM... :) He could have gotten a good nights sleep if he had just listened to me hours earlier! Good luck...I'll be waiting!!
