Hee!

Um, you know one

Heh. Mostly, I was referring to my non-buffista friends, although that's not that many.

We punted a lot, but it made me feel less pressured when those things happened that required a change.

This wouldn't have been me. When I plan something, I want it to go accordingly. I would have been crushed if I had spent all that time thinking about how I wanted it to go idealy, only to have to veer from the plan when the situation required it.

If I had tried to plan for all the contingencies, I would have had to print it out on a giant roll of paper because it would have consisted of a huge flow chart with lots of if/thens.

Ah, that wouldn't have been any fun. Mine was a single page, I think, and mostly about wanting to nurse (which didn't happen) and wanting the baby to sleep in (she never slept so we had to send her to the nursery a couple of times so I could get some rest) and that I wanted an epidural and stuff like that. I don't recall all of it.

I didn't do one with Aidan, and I wish I'd had more control of what went on with him. I was too out of it to follow what was going on and I still don't really recall what the emergency was that kept him in the nursery for most of a day. A plan wouldn't have helped with that, though.

I had a list of things I did NOT want to happen and in what order.

Every last freaking one of them happened.

That'll learn me. :)

BWAH!

I know.

Although, now I can schedule births! Advance notice given and invites made! I can choose astrlogical signs! And no maore contractions ever ever ever!

Sounds like Aimee's teething. Someone got the Tylenol?

A picture for Aimee (and anyone else who's interested): Still not King (yet). RAWR. That is one fine-looking future monarch.

He's going bald very early, though.
