OB Appointment

Yes, even obstetricians have to go to an obstetrician when they're pregnant. She can't hardly deliver her own baby - and Matt's not going to do it (we hope).

So today was technically our last prenatal visit, though we found out that we'll be headed back down to Guatemala City next Tuesday morning for one last chat, then check into the hospital on Wednesday morning for an attempt at a delivery on Wednesday. (Yes, the docs actually can schedule things like this.)

Of course, all of this presumes that we don't deliver all on our own before that. It would be best if Isaac could wait until this time next week. Or at least wait until we're safely at the Fickers' this weekend - it wouldn't be their first delivery! (Though Leslie promises to kill us if we go into labor at her house!)

So everything is pretty much the same as before. We're praying for a perfect healthy baby. Whatever he is, he sure is active! And he likes music. And McDonald's. So he's definitely Matt and Heidi's son....

More on the mission front, Heidi will be at Buen Samaritano tomorrow and Friday and Matt will be recording. With any luck, he'll be able to finish one more song he's written for Isaac to have it ready for his arrival. Then we hope for some inspiration AFTER the baby is born - two songs do not make a whole CD!
