Lila is in labor!

I'm sitting outside right now on the laptop waiting on Lila to kid. Earlier today I was on the phone with Pony and I told her that Lila just looked weird today...haggard...and her bag was a lot bigger. Around 5 I went to pick up my kids and see my daddy and noticed that she wasn't with the herd...she was staying by her pen and softly talking. Well, she had a bit of goo a little while ago so now it's just the waiting game!

Yay!

whatever you do DON'T tell her that you are expecting babies soon. Go into the barn and talk about going into town and won't be back till late. Then watch settle down outside the window and wait. And maybe if that doesn't work, do you're best imitation of a radio voice, and make-up a tornado warning, or high wind advisory, that should do the trick!

Do not sit on your laptop. It's really not designed for that use.

Are all batteries fully charged? Your phone won't go dead or anything? Your camera has memory space on it, right? (No, I'm not at all desparate for a kid fix! )

If you call me at 4:20 a.m. with anything NOT an emergency, I will personally drive over there and... and...

I'll wake Megan. BWAhahahaha!

(but if there's an emergency and you DON'T call me, I'll ... well, I'll wake Megan!)
