Optimus Prime was telling me a story today about a day when he was younger and they had a short day at school. Apparently this shortened day was unplanned, and rather than calling his mom to get a ride home, he and a friend opted to just ride the bus home so his mom didn't have to get out to get him. Well, he mentioned at the beginning of this story how he tended to step softly, unintentionally surprising people when he walks in. Well, on this occasion, he got home and walked in on his mom...
...eating the Nestle Toll House cookie dough. He says she wasn't a very good cook, but she tried as evidenced by the six trays of progressively lighter cookies, showing she was steadily figuring out how long to not cook them. I thought that was funny. What did you think was going to happen? She always told him not to eat raw cookie dough and ... busted!
Anyway, my sister-in-law, Padme (you know, Darth Vader's wife?... haha), is very pregnant with my first nephew at this point, and due to potentially complicating issues such as gestational diabetes, they induced her yesterday. Well, nothing happened. The pitossin (sp?) gave her a couple negligible contractions, but that's about it. So they took her off of it yesterday, and re-started it today, and still very little was going on. Last I heard at this point, they are looking to do a C-section later today if nothing further progresses.
Apparently, these complications could get somewhat serious, but as women who have C-sections don't ever have regular, natural birth later, it makes me wonder if they're still going to be able to have the 3-4 kids they were looking forward to having if she's going to be going under the knife every time.
I guess time will tell.
