Something's going on around here

S started having contractions last night around 12:00am. We stayed up quite awhile, then tried to sleep between them, with some success. It was easier for me! They were pretty regular, and then from 3 to 5 a.m., they were about 3 to 5 minutes apart, which is really close, but they did not get more intense. S fell asleep between 5:30 and 9:30, and we have been taking it easy this morning. I didn't go into work, which is great-- vacation day! They have become very sporadic, and we haven't seen some of the other key signs of active labor, so I may go into work for the afternoon.

Today is our anniversary, so our theory is that the baby is waiting until after our anniversary dinner at our favorite restaurant, Carmelita. It has GREAT vegetarian food, and is right next to our old apartment. Happy two-year anniversary to us. Hopefully, the baby can hold off so that we don't steal each other's thunder.

It seems to me that we will know more and more about the attributes of beanlet from this state of affairs. More on that, later. I bet on dinner not being interrupted.
