And We're In Countdown!

Bean,
Today is Memorial Day, 2005. Grandma and Grandpa Livingston were going to have your mom and dad, your Auntie Tam (me) and your Great Grandad over for a grill out. When I arrived at a couple of minutes to noon, Grandma told me that your dad had just called to say he was bringing your mom to the hospital because they thought that her water broke.

So we ate our grilled food at Grandma and Grandpa's and waited to hear if it was true--was Miss Bean really on her way today? Your dad called about an hour later and said that you were coming, but that mom hadn't started contractions quite yet. This meant we could have as many as 24 hours left in the countdown to Bean!

Grandma Livingston called Grandpa Nyhlen and they were already packing up the car to drive down to greet you!

Right now, it is 3:00 and we're awaiting a progress report from dad.

More to come, Miss Bean (and Bean fans the world 'round)!
