Standby For Launch

Today as Mae paid a visit to our good friend Helena (not her real name, duh!). As she stepped into the house, Helena's sister Hermia noted Mae's shape. "Your baby has engaged," she remarked.

If you've never heard the term, it mean's Baby has positioned himself for exit. Basically, this means the little guy is now upside down. In other words, he's at the starting line waiting for the gun to go off. Baby is at the launchpad, waiting to take off. He's about to be born soon!!! Whoa!!!

Hermia has had some experience. "You shouldn't be moving around," she advised. "It could be anytime now."

I'm gonna be a Daddy so soon. 42 days, according to the countdown clock I have on the right hand of this page. That's just a little over a month.

Fuuh! This is all very surreal.

  2. ::"Your baby has engaged," she remarked::
    The sentence above reminds me of Star Trek when they activate their warpdrives. Ahh...i wonder if Helena is a trekkie oo :)
    Anyway when the countdown hits 41,you should start a 40 day and 40 nights of fun with the guys before baby makes you nearly-permanently grounded at home.
    Till than.....

    Captain: Ensign, take us out. Full impulse power. On my mark.
    Ensign: Aye, aye, Captain. Full impulse power.
    Captain: Engage.

  6. Oooh, can do little "Star Trekkie" movie of launch & put it up here.
    After all this, I think Baby should be christened Spock.
