"Proud to be an American"


September 1st is Labor Day ... it's also 2 days away from Cletus' due date.

As I was making notes in my calendar this morning, I chuckled to myself ... "Gee wouldn't it be funny if I went into labor on Labor Day?? It would be kinda fun if the baby was born on a national holiday ... Dad was born on Flag day ... wouldn't it be so fun ... blah blah blah."

Rob chimed in to say that he highly doubts that I will be "chuckling" and/or reveling in the fact that I will be laboring on a national holiday ... but somehow I think it would be funny if I went into labor on a day when the whole country takes a break and honors those who "labor".

--- Latest update on Cletus ---

Mommy Smong saw Dr. Clawson again this morning. The doctor confirmed that all is well and that she is happy to see that we have come this far (over halfway) into the pregnancy without any issues. Mommy asked Dr. Clawson how long the baby would continue his teddy bear grip like "hug" on her bladder and Dr. Clawson sadly advised that it's a possibility that the two will remain friends for the duration of the pregnancy. Sigh ... at least I'm no longer nauseous and my appetite is back : )

labor day would be good!
having your birthday on a holiday would be da bomb, you never have school or work and can actually have a party on your birthday!
