Tomorrow afternoon we are checking into the UW Medical Center. They will give Pui a drug to help prepare the cervix, and Thursday morning they will induce labor, if it hasn't started already. I expect they'll need to induce - Pui has shown no signs of labor yet. We take it as a good sign that Pat will be a good boy - we asked him not to come out until he was full term, and he hasn't. Once he's out and has met the world, we'll ask him to recover from surgery quickly and well.
Yesterday, our neighbor saw Pui and my parents getting into the car while I put a couple small bags into the back of the car, and jumped to the obvious conclusion. Actually, Mom and Dad treated us to a dinner at the Crab Pot. On our way out, I had grabbed our fully packed bags and put them in the car, so we would have them there ready to go. We didn't think what it might have looked like to an outside observer.
Today we did our last shopping - we went to a store that sells Thai magazines and an Asian market, the library, and a supermarket. Pui cooked up a delicious dinner - she may be 39 weeks pregnant, but she still likes to cook. I have no complaints about that whatsoever: Pui's cooking is delicious. We are now wrapping up everything we need to have ready - we will be back in Kirkland only occasionally this next month.
I will try to update the blog at least once a day for the next couple of weeks - there will be a lot happening, but I'm not sure when I'll have time and access to the Internet to blog.
