33 and 1/2 Weeks




Hello there folks. It's been a while since our last posting. We have a few minor updates.
1) I'm currently weighing in at a healthy 148 pounds...held together by a 38 inch waist that appears to have an atmosphere and ozone layer of its own.
2) Our doctor has confirmed that our little Oliver will have Daniel's chin as the split chin is about as dominant a gene as brown eyes. Sadly, my recessive mono-chin doesn't have a fighting chance.
3) We have been dutifully attending our birthing classes where I had an embarrassing experience last night. Let me count the ways that birthing classes could be embarrassing...we discuss perineal massage, the elimination of fecal matter during delivery, breastfeeding, etc.
Thus, you'd think that spouses would refrain from further embarrassment in the company of 15 strangers. Daniel, however, felt that it was necessary to raise his hand and ask a rather personal and revealing question of our German midwife instructor.
Daniel: So this is a little off topic but I was wondering...how should I put this? When should pregnant women stop getting Brazilian waxes?
The whole group: silent
Me: Hhhhypothetically of course
The whole group: nervous laughter
Midwife: There is an answer to that question...whenever your wife wants to stop getting Brazilian waxes.
Daniel: OK
4) So we're eating, pulling Oliver's bedroom together, feeling him kick, and eating some more. Please excuse me while I go get waxed.
