First, I had my bi-weekly visit to the OB this morning. She confirmed that the baby has indeed dropped, but that my cervix is still locked up tighter than Fort Knox, so the little man might just make it to my tentatively scheduled delivery date:
DECEMBER 4, 2008! WHOOP! WHOOP!
I should receive confirmation of the date at my next visit. When I called Ethan to tell him the news, his initial response was "Oh, man." I think it became all to real to him once the date was (tentatively) fixed.
I celebrated by going to Target to buy slippers and travel-sized toiletries and all the other crap I need for my hospital bag.
And then, to top it off, the Phillies won the World Series in game 4. One of my earliest memories is of them winning the series in 1980. I never thought I'd have to wait 28 years to see them do it again.
With Mr. T's arrival and the Phillies winning the series, Obama winning the election next Tuesday would be the hat trick of all hat tricks, if I can mix my sports. Hopefully 2008 will be nothing but good things right through the end. I could use a few good months in a row!

Yippie! A delivery date- how EXCITING... don't forget to bring your pillow w/ you in a non-white case... better than the hospital ones. Also- I liked pants, tank tops and hooded sweatshirts better than gowns- but that's just me.. even when I was attempting to nurse. Also- I thought dressing in layers was good b/c w/ the hormones leaving my body i was hot and cold non stop!
I brought a boppy w/ me, but they had them at the hospital and i never used mine.
