"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I had the fastest and easiest delivery in the history of ever (45 minutes from hospital arrival to birth).

Right on! Go, Flea go! Actually it seems like you went. I think my mom had me 20 minutes after she got to the hospital, but this is the kind of competition where everybody wins. As long as the OB/GYN is using a catcher's mitt.

Well, I look like crap because it's disgustingly sauna-like outside and I just walked back from Halsted, but:

Man, I wish I looked that good when I look like crap. Ahhhhhhhhhh..... It's a good day.

Good luck with your hair, lib.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Congratulations, flea and family! I can't wait to see the wee baby.

Heh. My friend's second child was delivered in the car in the parking lot of the birthing center. Yay for quick babies!

Mostly lurking...

My baby brother was delivered by nurses 30 minutes after arriving at the hospital. When mom called to say she was on her way and she thought it was gonna be quick, they called the doctor to have him meet mom and dad at the hospital. The doctor asked if he had enough time to shower. The nurses told him yes.

He got there 20 minutes after J was born.

Now, mom probably would have been more upset, but it was the same doctor that delivered me and my other brother. I think she was more upset with the nurses than anything.

But, definitely yay for quick births! I'm all for that!

Congratulations to the fleas! And a big warm welcome to the wee boy-in-a-hurry!

My nearly one-year old second born is currently upstairs in her cot not napping, and banging her dummy on the radiator. I can hear sing-songy noises as well. Good times.

I anxiously await pictures of the Armadillo and arma-family, too....

I'm happy to report that my landlord has already come to check the toilet, apologized(!), and is now at the hardware store getting supplies to fix the problem. I wish everybody else's were as responsive!
