Grab the Carving Set, It's Time to Slice

Well, for all of you who DON'T know, tomorrow is the big day. And how do I know? Why we scheduled it, of course.

Apparently from one doctor's visit to the next, Tammie has not been progressing as expected (she has always been a procrastinator...). So the doctor (sha-sha-Shashoua) thought that it might be wise to discuss the birth of a caesar. Oops! I meant a C-section... The doctor is worried that Bailey may be big (over 9 lbs) and he does not want to ''torture" Tammie any more than normal (I don't know why...I torture her all the time...).

So tomorrow around 2 o'clock, Tammie and I (mainly Tammie...they BETTER NOT come at me with any knives!) will head into the operating room to usher in a new direction in our lives...PARENTHOOD! (good god, what were we thinking?)

I'm sure that we are not the only couple to ever face this feeling (at least I hope not), but Tammie and I find ourselves struck by the realization, "By this time tomorrow we are going to be parents. What were we thinking?" While we are extremely excited and proud at this soon to be life-changing experience, we are at the same time overwhelmed and just a bit terrified. We know that these feelings of uncertainty will fly from our hearts and minds the moment that we set eyes upon our newest addition to this ever-growing and loving family of ours, but until that time, the feelings of nervousness are ever present.

Tammie and I can never express how much we appreciate all of the well wishes and support that everyone has given to us. We know that no matter what may come, we have had some of the greatest role models in our lives. Thank you, everyone! We can't wait to introduce you to our daughter, Bailey!
