We have to be at the hospital in less than seven hours. Yes, I should be in bed.
Cassie’s mom is here to take care of Luke in the morning. He usually gets up around 7:30, so there’s a good chance he’ll wake up a big brother. He knows something is up, but of course he doesn’t fully understand the situation. It’ll be interesting to see how he handles it.
Since Cassie’s having a C-section she’ll be in the hospital until around noon on Friday. My parents and grandmothers are coming to be here for the birth tomorrow, and my mom is going to stick around and take care of Luke for the rest of the week. Cassie’s mom will be back next week. We’ll need a lot of help because Cassie won’t be able to pick Luke up for at least two weeks, and he can be a handful on his own.
This time feels quite a bit different from when we had Luke. It’s a little surreal. It hasn’t sunk in that I’ll have another son tomorrow. It’s going to be an interesting transition for everyone involved.
Unfortunately there is no public wifi at the hospital, but I’ll make a quick post on my iPhone after Liam is born and everything has settled down.
