'Bye 'bye Plug

I lost my mucous plug today. Well, at least part of it. There I was at work going to the bathroom to pee every ten minutes or so. One of those trips yielded a surprise while I was wiping. I was like, "ewww, what's that?". And it was all mucousy, and I knew: That was my mucous plug. No, it wasn't bloody or anything. It was just clear. I called Robert right away to deliver my news and he was very excited. I guess labor's closer when the plug is pink or brown or something. Anyway, I was very excited about this new development. I also had some severe lower back pain today. That wasn't very exciting, but there it was.

Last night Robert took it upon himself to pack my hospital bag. I was really tired when he came home last night and ready to go to bed so I did. He, on the other hand, stayed up hours gathering all my stuff for the hospital and packing it in a small suitcase along with some stuff of his. I was very impressed because I checked it this morning, and he did a really good job! He even packed our new diaper bag with stuff for the baby. I was very moved. He packed diapers and diaper stuff, a variety of outfits from which to choose for her journey home, and some other goodies. I love him so much.

I still want to get some music together so we'll have something nice to listen to at the hospital. Not sure if I'll burn a CD or just take several. We also have yet to master the workings of our car seat. A very giant detail.
