Do overdue fines count on babies?

Hey, everyone.
It's The day after our baby son was due, yet he still isn't here (as i'm sure you've all noticed since i haven't called you up and shouted my joys in the middle of the night). We actually went to our last doctor appointment today, and everything's still the same as always. No progress toward the baby being born yet. Of course anything can happen, but it probably means that the baby will be born next week when the doctors induce him.
We found out at the doctors appointment today the specifics of the induction plans. Basically, unless Tommy comes early, we will be going in on Wednesday to the Hospital around 6pm, and they'll give Jessie some gel that'll start her having contractions or something. Then we go back again at midnight, and they'll give her some stronger gel to speed things along, and then Thursday morning at 6am, they'll start whatever else they need to do to have the little guy enter the world and pay his overdue fines.
So, we're very excited. We're trying to get internet at our place, and our room mates set up phone service through qwest, so we're thinking of doing a bundle package to get internet through them. That's one excuse why we're not keeping so up to date on the blog (although once we get internet, i wonder what will be my new excuse. i need to do better at this). We'll hopefully get some internet soon, so i can post tons of pictures of our baby boy so all of you can see him.
Right now Jessie and I are at BYU, she's doing independent study classes, trying to get ahead, while i'm just sitting at the computer next to her catching up on email, blog, comics, and everything else the internet would be good for.
Tonight we're going to one of my misison reunions. I'll probably be one of the oldest people there (next to the President and his wife, of course), but we can never turn down free food, and it's fun to try and teach Jessie spanish amongst other spanish speakers. One day i'm going to drag her and the rest of the family down to mexico so she can experience it.
Well, anyway, the main topic of this blog is to let you all know that we HAVEN'T had the baby yet, but he's coming in the next week. I'll let you all know somehow, when it happens.
Love from all of us. Take care.
Love,
Rhett, Jessie (and soon little Tommy).

  1. YEA! Congrats, and good luck, just remember this is the easiest part, the pregnancy was harder than delivery and raising the child is the hardest. Hang in there, they say it's worth it, I'll let you know when I found out if that's true!
