One Weird Weekend

I cannot remember when our house has been this quiet this long. With just Cari, Taylor, Bethany and I here since Saturday night our normally loud and crazy dwelling has been still like a library. Obviously we don't have a baby yet. Cari continues to have mild contractions with an occasional strong contraction with no steady pattern. This morning she is bummed...like it is her fault. The baby continues to be extremely active. I wonder if it is playing tricks on the uterus?

I am going to go to work...THAT will do it! Plus I have always thought it would be fun to get called at work to come home cause the baby was coming. Believe it or not in 16 years of practice and 7 kids over that time I have never gotten that call at work. (Edited by Cari: Yes, it happened once--with Elli. At the same time Darrell was coming home from work, our real estate agent was on his way over with papers for us to sign to sell our house!)

We are blessed by all who are interceding for us. Thank you so much. Pray for my wife's encouragement. Pray for Cari's Mom and Step Dad who have had 5 of our kids. Talk about a weird weekend! Their lives have been radically turned up side down!

That is all for now...we will keep you posted if anything develops today.
