Mum's lost her patience with Dad and Me!







Notice Mum is not smiling

So I will arrive any day now, for real this time because my due date is only 9 days away. What does Dad decide to do? start the kitchen remodel! Now Mum didn't want to argue because she has waited for this for two years but really couldn't this have been done a little earlier? So Mum and Dad ripped out the closests that used to separate the living room and kitchen, which was fine, but today Dad is really grumpy because there is dry wall dust covering everything! well duh what did he think was going to happen? Idiot!! He also finally decided to order the new windows yesterday so in about two weeks we will have another major disaster. My room is a mess again because Dad had to get into the attic and all the stuff that was stored in the access to the attic is in my room. After thinking about it, now Mum thinks maybe she shouldn't have allowed the demolition, the picture with the painting tape shows that when Dad first moved in over two years ago he painted, but never got to to the second coat, so she is worried that she will be living with the current state of the kitchen for a really long time.

Mum is also a little angry at me. She is very uncomfortable and willing to try anything to nudge me along. She has even started walking which she hasn't done for a really long time because it is too sad without Kita especially the mountain trail behind the house, but it is a really good uphill climb. Auntie Cat will be really mad at me if I don't come after spending all that time waiting for me in Vancouver. They will not medically induce me until 41 weeks and 3 days which is after she leaves. Mum is going to try all the non medical ways to try to urge me along. Don't tell Dad though he thinks that Mum shouldn't do anything. That's really easy for him to say, his life has not changed, he doesn't have to carry a bowling ball between his legs, never ending sore back and gets to drink all the beers he wants. Mum is only going to try what the midwife suggests, if I am ready it might give me a nudge and if I am not then no harm will be done. It is one of those matters that she could careless about what Dad thinks, she will do it regardless. There are still constant contractions which are really annoying, they just won't progress into stronger ones that will push me along.

Mum is smiling thinking she will get revenge in a couple weeks when we are chillin in the white sand on the shore of Kootenay lake while Dad is back at the house in 30 degree weather installing the windows!

See you soon,
Kokanee Baby
