Here we go

Alright it can't be that far off now, right?  Today is the due date, which we've been staring down now for nine months.  Its seemed lately that it would pass without incident, but we're starting to get a little action as of late.  Marina started to have contractions last night on a little more regular basis.  She was 20 minutes apart for a while, and then they shortened up to 10 minutes for about an hour.  And then . . . stopped.  Well maybe that doesn't mean today, BUT, its gotta be soon, right?  I think so.  SO, I've put my catcher's mitt on and I'm ready for anything. I better be!
