Birthday Eve

Pizza Party Crew (L to R):
Dawn, Tim, Mari, Ellen, Cheryl, Heather, Todd

Mari and her parents



Princess?









Chris here. sorry to post so late. Mari's parents flew into town yesterday and saw Mari pregnant for the first time - what a shock that must have been! I know it has been comforting for Mari to have her parents here. We have been trying to mentally prepare for the big day tomorrow, mainly by trying to take Mari's mind off of things. Her parents bought her a pedicure; she came right up to the room and worked her magic. It will be a pleasant surprise tomorrow when Mari can see her toes for the first time in a bunch of months.
Does a spinal get rid of butterflies? How about some Ambien for tonight?

Mari's last supper was Star Pizza - yes, again; pizza is definitely her favorite food. My mom and cousin also came by tonight, as well as our friends Heather and Todd. We just had a little pizza party in the room and hung out.

The festivities will start at about 8am tomorrow morning, starting with all the paperwork and pre-op details. C-section is scheduled for 9:30am. It is so hard to believe that less than 12 hours from now we will have 4 little babies, skin and all!! I can't believe we don't have to take a test in order to keep them.
I suppose it is time to try to sleep; hopefully I am eligible for Ambien too. Prime your computer for a full blog tomorrow complete with photos...I hope.
