My Robert birthday story. I went to the hospital on February 14 in labor, thinking he would be born any time. Blais went to my cousins’ and had a lovely time spending a Sunday with them. After hours of waiting and walking around the block, he still was not ready so they sent me home and said it would probably be several more weeks. That night I had such pain in my back, I was crawling around on the floor with Duffy rubbing my back. My sister called early the next morning, heard my tale and told me to get myself down to the doctor’s office and demand something for my pain. We took Blais with us, one diaper, and one bottle thinking they would send us home. As it turned out I was 3 cm dilated so they took me over to the hospital to start the delivery process. We called my cousin to take Blais but she couldn’t get there for a couple of hours. She was miserable with a soaked diaper. When my cousin got there and got Blais in her brand new car, Blais had a runny diarrhea to christen the car. I hope Sally has a diaper with her for poor Blais. Labor went on all day and Robert was born at 830 Monday night. Healthy and big enough.
Blais-maybe at Christmas in PC. Blais due March 13 but born February 19. My Blais pregnancy story. I was on couch rest starting mid-January. We had started a major renovation of our upstairs bedrooms to be completed before Blais was due, so I was home to rest but surrounded by construction workers and noise. It was my birthday weekend and I told Duffy I was so looking forward to having the house to ourselves. Duffy looked stricken and admitted he had invited about 10 people over for a surprise birthday party on Saturday for dinner. I asked what he had planned and he had planned nothing. Long story short, I planned my own party, baked my own cake, and carried it into the living room singing happy birthday to me.
