I guess we've been no good at keeping a blog. But thought I would log on and thank God for all the blessings in my life.
Happy Father's Day to my dear husband. Love you baby.

Too much to catch up with so I'll start with the present
We had our portraits taken a couple of weeks ago, but we're still waiting for the prints. So this "proof" will have to do to show you sweet Rowan at 7 months.

A Lot Has Happened
A lot has happened in the last few days.
First, the doctor did indeed say, "see you next week." We made an apointment for the following Wednesday and made tentative plans to induce on the 10th if nothing happened.
This all became purely academic when Victoria's water broke at Neiman Marcus on Saturday around 1:00 pm.
We happened to be passing through Neiman's on our way to do some serious mall walking when Vic had to high-tail it to the ladies. She came out a few minutes later with a grin the size of a quarter moon.
It's time!
The story is a bit long and I'm a bit tired, so I will fill in the details later. Sufice it to say that William Rowan Wise was born at 1:01 am on Sunday September 2nd.
He and his mother are healthy and we are all very happy.

Two Days
Well, it's two days to due date. Vic has a Dr. appointment this morning and I will join her. Last week the doc said, "see ya next week". I really hope she doesn't say that again today. We're ready to meet our son.
We've been having fun saying, "Saturday" when people ask when the baby is due. In the past the answer was something like, "not until September", or "in about six weeks". But to say, "Saturday", has such gravity, finality; the time is upon us.
Or is it? Or are we going to have to wait another week?
If we go a week over the doctor said she will induce. The induction process is okay in the sense that you can get ready, take a shower, double check the overnight bag, etc. It seems a bit anticlimactic though. It lacks that rush of excitement and the subsequent scurrying about and flood of nervous emotion that is inherent in the idealistic notion of having a baby. It seems to me that that is part of the fire parents should have to walk through. I hope we get to do that together. It's a far more interesting story.
But what the heck do I know? I've never been a dad before.
I can't wait.
