not sure if we're too early, but we're heading to the hospital. I'm scared that I won't even be dilated, but it hurts so I sorta wouldn't mind getting the car journey over with...I'm in good spirits :) p.s. actually, as soon as we packed up, I got a better handle so we're still at home actually...but will go soon...

I am in London, en route to Austria, but had to log in to check on the status of baby Yaginuma! I think going to the hospital early is wise -- you don't want to deal with the check-in later, plus it'll be reassuring once baby is connected to the monitors so you know she's great. All the best -- please keep us posted!

Ohhh, I missed these blogs :) If it's July 4, then remember that a lot of things happened today (yesterday)! World Cup semi finale (where my team got kicked out, boo), another ship going into space...the big and the small things alike.

Dav had done a name-the-baby post...let me just tell you that while naming a baby "Shy" may seem a bit weird, it actually means "gift" in Hebrew (though the translit would be 'Shai' or 'Shay'), and I think nowadays they give the name to girls and boys alike.

If I calculated the time diff right...you're probably shortly past everything (I'm positive, I count on a speedy delivery ;) ). Brave girl!!! Brave Dave!!
