You did what.....

OK this is Wes.... Tiffany is laying in a hospital bed relaxing as we awaiting Tucker's arrival. Long story short... We are at the hospital and it looks like Tiffany will be induced in the morning. (I'm sure tiff will have more to come on this.) Anyway... We were supposed to be at the hospital at 6pm, but no beds were available. So we decided to grab a bit to eat. As we pondered where to go, I suggested Red Lobster. My thinking, why not have a good meal before we officially began our journey down Labor and Delivery. Tiffany looked at it more as a last meal. After eating we still hadn't received a call from the hospital letting us know that a bed was available so I suggested...... let's go get a pedicure. Yep that's what I said. Now I've made comments like this in past, but they were just that. This time Tiff was like, "hey, sounds good to me!" Thinking to myself, "what did i just get myself into!" But then I realized what she about go through to bring Tucker into this world. So I swallowed (Gulp!) head up, chest out, shoulders up, back, and down, and proudly strolled into Red Nails! Where I sat in a massage chair while my toe nails got cut, filed, and buffed, and my feet got massaged! To my surprise I really enjoyed it! Tiffany and I both enjoyed a great time together just relaxing. It was a sacrifice on my part, but it doesn't compare to the sacrifice of Tiffany carrying our son with a smile, and without complaints for the last 9 1/2 months! Just as we were finishing up we got a call from the hospital letting us know they were ready for us.

Ready or not, here Tucker comes!!!

I'm saying tons of prayers for you guys as Tucker enters the world. Prayers up for a healthy momma and baby! Meghan and I have talked and plan on coming up in the weeks ahead (maybe to bring supper one week night or something). I can't wait to meet his precious gift! You're going to be GREAT parents!
