For a fun Friday night I am tackling washing all the baby stuff, so I had to run next door to the Hyatt to get some quarters. On the way back out I approach the giant revolving door, and decide at the last minute not to bolt for it. A guy behind me says "boy I'm glad you decided to wait, that could have been messy" and I turn and it's AL FRANKEN!! So do I say something clever? Do I say "hey, a fellow Minnesotan"? No I just stare at him like an idiot. My mouth might have even been open. I hope I had the decency to laugh at least, but all I remember is completely staring. Real cool.

Isaac is whoopin' it up at the Kentucky Derby, so maybe he'll have some pictures to post after the weekend.

With about four weeks to go my weekend plans consist of packing my hospital bag!

Here's what Baby T (nope, still no name) is up to!
Week Thirty-Six
-Your baby is almost ready and most likely, so are you! The only organ still to mature is the lungs.
-If he hasn't already, this week your baby may drop into the birth canal. While breathing for mom becomes easier, walking may be the exact opposite!
-Fat is dimpling your baby's elbows and knees, and forming creases in the neck and wrists. His skin is growing smooth and, shall we say it, "baby" soft.
-His gums are very rigid. It won't be many months before you'll see his teeth.
-He has a fully developed pair of kidneys and his liver has begun processing some waste products.
-Your child's average size is now 18.66 inches (47.4cm) and 5.78 pounds (2622 g). Between now and birth he will gain about an ounce a day!
