Happy Birthday Baby



This is the last you’re going to hear from me for a little while. Tomorrow we go in to have the baby. Assuming I don’t die during the birth (always a chance), I’ll write again when I’m still too sleep deprived to make much sense, but off the really good drugs that could result in some fun-to-read posts.

Took a couple last pictures of us as a family of three. Ed wanted to have his picture taken with his cats. After that, he wasn't much up for the photo ops.
He definitely knows something is up. He knows G'pa Ohio was coming today and that tomorrow mama and dada are going to the hospital to have a baby. He told Cookie we'd be having a baby duck, so he could be in for a bit of a surprise. Tonight when we read him stories, there was an airplane. He knows when dada goes away, he goes on an airplane, so he asked if mama was going on an airplane. I hope it didn't freak him out that I said I wasn't going on an airplane, because I would be closer.
So he definitely knows and comprehends I'm going away, which is good. We told him g'pa would be getting him when he woke up tomorrow. I'm so curious as to what his brain is thinking and processing.

Great idea to take the pictures of the three of you tonight. Tomorrow you will be a family of four. Am sure that Eddie and Grandpa Ohio will do fine together tomorrow and pretty soon Eddie will realize he is getting a new baby brother or sister rather than a new baby duck.
Love and kisses!
Grandma Ohio
