Waiting for our little monkey
Happy Canada Day, everyone! I'm finally finished work and now comes the 2 weeks or so wait! I managed to make it to almost 38 weeks at work without going into labour, and I had a lovely spend-off from all the doctors and the office ladies (thanks again). We're essentially ready: labour bag is mostly packed, the cradle is good to go, and we have diapers, so I suppose that's as ready as we can be. We have a couple girls' names picked out, but haven't settled on a boy's name yet (we welcome any suggestions). I found out you have 10 days to name the baby, but hopefully we leave the hospital with baby and a name. We have a list of people to call, but please let us know if you want to be woken up with a phone call. Otherwise we'll wait for a reasonable hour.
We'll keep you posted with any changes but I have a feeling I'm in for the long haul!

Dear three of you!
So nice to read an update! Michelle what a long time to work! How long maternity leave will you have after baby arrives? Hope you have some weeks or months!
Well names, maybe you can look up some names from dutch or german origine?
Enjoy yor weekend and free time!
Love Lambert & Sylvia
Sylvia,
I'm going to take the maximum maternity leave, which is 50 weeks. Then I will decide how much I'll go back to work, or if I go back to school (I should get my Master's degree one of these days)
I would suggest a dutch or german as well!!
good suggestion Syl!!
