Or not

Well, the baby was not waiting for me. :(

Jen went into the hospital Thursday night, but she was only dialated to 1cm and 80%effaced (?).

The midwife wanted her to get some sleep. Jen wanted to go home to sleep, the midwife wanted her to stay because once things go, they will go quickly. The midwife was convinced that Jen would be back that night. Well, it is now Monday afternoon and there is still no baby. There have been a number of times when we thought we would be going into the hospital soon, the contractions have always eased
up and we haven't had the need to go into the hospital again.

Jen has an appointment with the mid wives today. We are hoping they will tell us good news. At the minimum, we hope that she has been dialating. With any luck the midwives will be able to do something to encourage the baby make her debut appearance.

I had to stay late at work on Friday to get everything done that needed to get done before I left. I was worried that Jen would have the baby before I got to SLC (clearly she didn't). It was my lucky day. Not only did I get onto a flight into SLC on a Friday night, but I also got a seat in first class, and didn't have to use my vacation pass to do it.

Added bonus: I went on a date last Saturday with a guy who I would actually like to see again. I called him on Wednesday to say hi and make contact. He called me back on Friday for the same reason. I told him I would contact him when I got back to Phoenix and we are going to try to get together one day this week. :)

FYI: Still no word on the airline job.
