Remembering Dad
Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009
Today I find myself thinking a lot about my father, who passed away on this date in 2005. He was only 67 when he died. Way too young in my opinion. It’s a real shame my child will never meet his paternal Grandfather. Something to think about for those smokers with children. Dad would still be with us if he had quit smoking at some point during his life. Despite this and his many other human frailties, I love and miss him more than anyone will ever know.
Jani is due to have our first child, the fore mentioned Ginker, on the 28th of December… less than a week from today. As friends and family try to guess… and gamble on the actual date, it has been my hope that our child would be born today. It feels like it would be one of those “hakuna matada” circle of life things. As I write this there are only eight hours left of December 22nd, so it seems highly unlikely that today will be the day. Twenty-two is one of my roulette numbers as well, so I was really pulling for today. Well, the Ginker will come when the Ginker is good and ready. All I really want is for a healthy baby and mommy, so I’ll be patient.
As a way of remembering my father today I’m going to re-post something I wrote while traveling on my way to dad’s funeral. Please read on and enjoy.
Head Down
Saturday, December 5th, 2009Things are moving right along, folks. We had our bi-weekly Dr. appointment today and the NP confirmed that the Ginker is head down, which means he could come any time now. Of course he’s not due until the 28th, but really he can come whenever he’s ready. Maybe he’s like me and is hoping for the tax break. That’s my boy!
Throughout the pregnancy it’s been in the back of our minds that something could go wrong at any time. And, although it’s still a very real possibility, I’m resting a little easier these days. This coming Monday we will be at 37 weeks, which means the Ginker is fully developed and is now just packing on some weight. If he came early now odds are that he would do fine.
Something happened to me about a week and an half ago that left me with a huge sense of relief. (more…)
The Mix – Ginker in Utero
Saturday, November 21st, 2009I’ve finally taken some time to put together a playlist of music to play for the Ginker, in utero. It’s never too early to start brainwash…. er shaping the minds of the young. Read on to see what’s spinning in utero: (more…)
