My oldest nephew was born two weeks late (ended up a c-section due to the inducing not working), and was born 10 lbs 14 oz. Ouch. His two sibs were both scheduled sections, so they were born two weeks early, and were still 9 lbs 6 oz and 9 lbs 9 oz. Again, ouch.
My SIL's older sister's two kids were both over 11 lbs, and were both natural childbirth. Double ouch.
I love my daughter and would have gone to any lengths to bring her into the world. However. I have distinct issues with blowing out my vagina because of a baby when there are other delivery options.

Anyone else get the mental image of Aims' vagina blowing up like a balloon and carrying her away? Just me?
Right then.
Carry on.

The male hooded seal blows out the lining of his nasal cavity and inflates it like a balloon. Then he waves it around to get attention.
Welcome HUMONGOUS baby! Wow, he is a bruiser for a newborn. Cute as a button, though!
So my grandmother went into the hospital yesterday for some sort of heart incident. My mom called after ten hours in the ER. They think she's going to be okay, but we'll know more today. The woman's pretty healthy for 96, but she's still 96. Health~ma for her would be appreciated. I just hope nothing happens while I'm at sea this summer and can't get back to help Mom.
In happier news, I bought a wedding dress yesterday! Ended up with a gorgeous Paloma Blanca gown (let's hear it for sample sales!). If you'd like to see it, go to here, click on "gown collection," and scroll down until you get to style #3966. (Drew, don't look at this link if you don't want to be spoiled!)
Ooh, very nice dress, Kristin!
(Don't spoil yourself, Drew!)

I have seen footage of this and am continually amazed that any baby hooded seals are ever concieved. It is not an attractive courtship ritual.

You can also use the search box on the left side. Beautiful dress Pix!
Also, health~ma for your Grandmother.

ION, JPMorgan credit card access can kiss my ass! Every time I log in to check the account (which is roughly once a month to review charges), I have to change my password. EVERY TIME! Yes, it is frustrating, and annoying. It's not like I can make purchases through the portal. It's not like I can change the address or spending limit through the portal (all that is only allowed to accounting dept). :: shakes wee fist at JPM ::

You call it icky, I call it 'product differentiation'.
