Oh yes he is extra cuta cute

I just got back from the hospital and it's official baby Riley is extra cuta cute and if I think that it IS true. I know I'm aweful cause I'm tough on baby names and babies in terms of cute factor, but Steve and Stace made the grade on both accounts. Now we finaly know what he looks like and he is very cute! Nice work pals! (And that's the truth cause I wouldn't say anything if he was actually ugly.)

It was nice hanging out with Laurette, Sarah, and Melanie who also made an appearence at the hospital. Being around all those moms does give me a little case of baby blues, but I know I just can't for a while yet. And I want to teach a lot more, so it's not in the cards just yet, but still I would like to be in the know during their conversations about all things pregnancy/delivery/mootherhood, etc. I'm also really interested to see what I'm like and my delivery is like when it finally does happen. I feel so lucky to have my Dad who knows something about something and can help me to know what is a good or bad idea. I also think I would like a dula (possibly Melanie cause she's so cool, but I feel bad that she'd have to look at my China, sorry Mel) and that I'd like to try hypnotherapy because I'm pretty good with that kind of stuff. I think I'd like having Melanie around because she knows a ton about all that crap and could be my voice when I want or don't want something. I even daydreamed about posting signs in the delivery room saying "Don't give my baby any medication without asking me!" and "Don't give me an epidural no matter what I say!" Anyhow, all daydreams for now.

I also found out today that I actually have some readers of this here blog! Now friends, see what Michelle did there, the commenting? That was very good of her and earned her a point, so go on now, comment, it's ok. In fact it's practically manditory. I don't care what you say or if you comment like a million times -- I'll love it all. And at least I'll know that you are really out there reading this stuff. I'll still ask you about it when I see or talk to you, but whatever, that's just me. Ok, I'm tired and should probably eat something, so instead I'll lay on the couch and watch TV.
Hasta la pasta.
P.S. Tonight I discovered how much I like having time with the girls. I hope I can hang with all of them again soon.
