05/17/2002 Archived Entry: "Baby liked Star Wars!"
I'm not sure whether this should frighten me. We went to a 6:15 showing last night, along with the other half of the US population who hadn't seen it opening night. Baby danced around during the entire movie -- I made Geoff keep his hand on my belly the whole time because she was just so funny. The movie itself wasn't bad -- it was Star Wars, ya know? But she was really getting into it. She especially seemed to like Ewan McGregor. (Well, who can blame her for that? ;)
On a different note, Geoff and I are buying a set of Frances the Badger books. "Bedtime for Frances" is included in a compilation that Gwen (Geoff's mom) gave us a while back, and I think Geoff & I get a bigger kick out of it than Baby ever will.
"Did he bite you?" asked father.
"No," said Frances.
"Did he scratch you?" asked mother.
"No," said Frances.
"Then he is a friendly tiger. Go back to bed," said father.
We won't be decorating the baby's room until after she's born. It just seems like waiting is the safest thing to do. We're not even buying a crib until she's home safe from the hospital. (We have the bassinet that my mom used for me & my sisters, and that Becky used for her two girls.) BUT, because I can't help myself, the other night when I was looking at eBay I bid on & won a complete crib set with Classic Winnie the Pooh. :)
Calendar: Tomorrow we have a maternity tour scheduled at Reston Hospital. On Monday, May 20, we have a sonogram at Children's Hospital. Saturday, May 25 (Happy Birthday Becky!) we'll be touring Sibley Hospital, in DC. My next appointment with Dr. Match (the OB) is on Tuesday, May 28. Today I called and found a dr. who can operate on Baby in utero, if it becomes necessary to drain fluid before she's born. We have a consultation appointment with him on Wednesday, May 29. Then we have sonograms scheduled for May 30, June 11, and June 25.
On the subject of calendars ...
Last thing -- for those who don't know about Thé Baby Email List -- you can sign up there to receive email notification of new posts here. I promise, whichever of us posts the update, either Geoff or I will send out a note.
