First Blood

Dit is nie nice om jou kind se bloed te sien nie.

He was playing with my boere hat while standing at his little table, and as he pulled it off forward he hit hit mouth on the corner of the table.

2 things then happened.  Siren and blood dripping from his lip.

I was so angry at the table.

a Hug and a kiss and all better.

Way-bill is made out for 21 Feb

My Son is coming tomorrow at 12h00

NOW I AM EXCITED.!!!!!!!!!!
See!!!!! Like getting your first passport

Yea!!!!!!!!!!!

Excitment

 

 

 

 

 

Yesterday with the last scan Dr White said that Zack is 4.2kg and there is no indication that he wants to come out. He might even want to stay in there for another 10 days. He is at the moment on the border for normal birth and anything bigger will be a problem. His head is 35cm in circumference, so a C-Section will be inevitable.

- So, just there and then we filled in the Way-Bill for Thursday 12h00.
- Everything is packed…. (for the last 12 months)
- Everything is ready (I think, I hope, screeeeeam!)
- Waldette had the perfect pregnancy.
- God showed her grace not to be in discomfort. She when to GYM CLASS on Monday. Tell me who can do that in week 40 with a baby hanging in front of them weighing at 4.1.

Way-Bill

Tomorrow at 5h00 I will make us breakfast, then at  8h30 we drop Lilly at Iggie and then off to Medi Clinic Stellenbosch to book in at 9h30.
From there I will post as time permits the events.

Thank you Lord for Zack.
