patience
we need more of it. we're pretty much tired of waiting around for the baby, but the due date is yet 2 weeks away. the baby's room is all ready. the bills have been paid. the dog has been groomed. many "how to be the perfect parent" books have been read. or at least skimmed. I've been putting off cleaning up the house, but I guess I'll do that tomorrow.
we're trying to distract ourselves with other stuff -- a dinner out last night and a movie tonight (bourne supremacy). aside: the movie was pretty good, but I think I've been spoiled by alias as far as cool spy stuff goes. but worth seeing especially if you liked the first one.
so we wait. we're a little tired of wondering how everything will go. but now I wonder if I'll look back in a month and long for these last days of just us. without a doubt, the last 5 years have been the best of my life. we've learned so much and had lots of fun too. I wonder if the next years will be even better?

I can't help but think of the last 14 days before Casey was born. Emily and I were sitting in the living room videotaping the cats playing with string.
In the video you can hear me say, "You know... one day we'll look back on this time and say something like 'Remember when we had time to sit around and videotape the cats?'." At the time, that was just something funny to muse about...
Now it's a pleasant reality...
