T-Minus-Ten

So this is it. Today's the day. We see the doctor in about 2 hours to start baiting little Tuk-tuk to pop on out. Sow hasn't eaten since last night. She hasn't gone all night without eating in about 6 months. Neither has the baby, and he's letting her know it. Of course my first instinct was to get dressed and walk out to the market to buy some breakfast for us. Ooopps.

Yesterday, I came back home to find a bunch of Sow's old friends here. The girls she'd originally moved to Chiang Mai with. She'd also got ahold of one of her best friends who he'd lost touch with and moved to Switzerland. They talked for a long time. And when the phone card ran out, I rode out to 7-11 and bought another. I guess in all the confusion, I missed the fact that Sow's mom, and possibly her grandfather, had boarded a bus and were headed this way. Due to arrive any moment. Much like our little boy, but I'd bet they arrive here first.

We'll be doing it all at Chiang Mai Ram Hospital. We've reserved a room on the 10th floor overlooking the mountain range and Doi Suthep temple. A golden temple that shines in the sunlight in the day, and glows by candle light at night. Apparently they even have an internet hook-up in our room. So I guess you'll be hearing from us...
