Moving the Moving Date

You read the title correctly, the moving date has moved.  

Christi had regular contractions all morning and called the doctor's office around 10:30 in the a.m. Wednesday, the 17th.  The contractions continued in regular 5-10 min intervals. Dr. Lebleu wanted her to take some benedryl, rest and if they did not slow down then to call back.

At 4:30  she was still having contractions and at that time Dr. Lebleu wanted her to come to the hospital. So they gave Christi what I call a "knock out concoction" of stadol and phenergan; she was slurring words and slurring texts (so if you got a random text Wednesday evening.....it should all be making sense to you now).

They kept her overnight to watch the contractions and make sure that she did not progress into labor.  On Thursday morning Dr. Lebleu came and advised us to get on down to Houston......so that's what we are doing.

Christi has been in packing mode getting everything together for her and the boys to go down.  Nothing like packing in 3 days to be gone for the next month to two months.  On a positive note, it's like ripping off a band-aid, the quicker you snatch it off, the quicker you can just move on.

The contractions have slowed down and Christi is on "take it easy" orders.  A whole lot of water and couch sitting.

We are leaving for Houston this Sunday, September 21st.  Christi, the boys and my sister will stay in Houston.
