OVERDUE

Pat,

You are officially late.  I don't like to be late.  We are going to have to work on this in the future.

Since we've passed your "best if used by date" we know you'll at least be here within a week and a half or so.  Sooner is better than later as your father is starting to get anxious.  He made me walk up and down the driveway last night when the storm was rolling in thinking that would speed you up.  He made my eggs with a LOT of Tabasco on Friday morning to get you to arrive.  He about forced you out when he sped over some railroad tracks in Mulvane on the way to Luciano's for dinner on Friday night.

And Franklin woke us up this morning with one of your K-State sock monkeys, plus left one of your blankets and stuffed giraffes on the living room floor.  In his defense, he did leave you his bone on the rug in your room in exchange.

The boys are starting to lose it.

I am holding it together and making the most of the extra time you've given us.

1. Clean/organize basement...maybe 1/2 way done?

14. Wash baby clothes/towels/blankets/etc.
15. Buy a few remaining items off our registry
16. Edit four pending photo shoots and get them back to clients within two weeks max
17. Five more shoots left before the due date.

 18. Write and send shower thank you's
19. Add a patio and firepit to our backyard - first round of supplies were dropped off - maybe they'll start this week?

 20. Clean baseboards
21. Co-host gender reveal party for our friends, Gabe and Angela
23. Q2 Business Taxes

24. Worry about the baby's size.

25. Pack for the hospital.

26.  Boil bottles

 Slowly, but surely.

Seems to be your motto too.
