Looks like we may be headed to the hospital tonight to deliver our 3rd child. Contractions started at 10:30 pm, now the waiting game begins. We dont know what whether it is a boy or a girl and we dont have names firmly picked out.
I am getting pretty antsy.

Hey nate WOW!!! I wish you luck we are having our 2nd boy in about 3 weeks. Are we good enough friends to see the video of the birth?   I hope everything goes well.

Don't know how many of you guys have seen this. When my last baby was born, it was kinda purple looking and it scared the dickens out of me. I found out that this is common. Then, as oxygen starts entering the lungs and blood stream the baby changes color to light pink and then white. It is the most miraculous thing you will ever see. Very few Mothers ever see it because they are too fagged out to even keep their eyes open. If you are in the delivery room, watch for it. It is unforgettable.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

We'll be thinking of you and Brooke, Nate.
Best wishes for a smooth delivery.
While I know that you are considering "Sunil" for a name if it's a boy, I can't recommend it.
I felt I was close to naming our boy "Jagger," but my wife was only patronizing me, as I later discovered.
Now, "Jagger Herman" has a nice ring to it.
I also like "Shamus" or the alternate spelling, "Seamus."
If it's a girl, let me suggest "Marissa" or "Betsy."

I got a text picture message very early this morning from Nate. Although I do know the gender, I'll let the proud papa inform the PB family.
On another note, later this morning Nate informed me that the little one was having some problems and got put into intensive care. He ask for my prayers, so I hope I am not overstepping my bounds by informing you all of this situation, but I do know that Nate would appreciate your prayers as well.
I'm hopeful that the situation will be remedied soon. I'm sure Nate will keep everyone posted when he has time. Thanks for keeping Nate and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

I left a message on Nate's cell phone a few moments ago.

I just spoke to Nate.
They had a baby boy who is named Drake.
They had some issues that are getting worked out, and Nate will let us know once things calm down.
Send you thoughts his way.

 Been a long couple days. Drake has had a few complications and is still in the NICU. I am home now for a quick shower and to spend some time with Mae and Noah and then back to the hospital. Drake is doing great today, but still has a few tests to come back over the next couple days. The biggest one comes back tomorrow morning. He had some ventrical hemorrhaging near his brain that caused a little bit of damage and we find out the extent of the damage Saturday morning. http://thediaryofalakenerd.blogspot.com/2010/02/drake-my-little-hero.html He has literally thousands of people across the nation praying for and supporting him and is fighting like a champ. The prayers and support received from you guys are felt and very much appreciated!
