38 weeks and closing in

Hello everybody. We are getting so excited here on Mercer Island. We are working on names, preparing the nursery, and just coming to the realization of three people living here. Tonight as we were watching ER (Barukh Hashem it is finally ending), there was an ad for the Lion King live here in Seattle in February (I think), and we have been wanting to see it for so long... Hakuna Matata (It means no worries...) And then we looked at each other and smiled and said almost at the same time: we'll need a Babysitter... What a thrill it is to need a babysitter. It is so incredible to watch my wife's tummy and know that there something so special inside of it and we will get to meet it very soon. By the way, we have no clue if it is a boy or girl, so stop asking. We have prepared our birth plan, and although I was begging Carrie for the at home water birth... She refused and has decided to go to the hospital and to listen to the trained professionals (doctors). Thank God for us being on the same page. We also have a doula now... Her name is Tamar and I think that God sent her to help us get through this because she is awesome.
We had a doctor's appointment today and we were told not to expect anytime soon (next week). But who knows? Anyways... I need all of your help. Carrie is turning 30 next week, and I have no idea what to buy her... Why don't you all post responses to this and let me know what you think is a good gift. Winner has my unending gratitude.

Now for a note for Lego:

Lego,

We love you so much, and yet we do not really know you yet. Your Eema knows you quite well already and I am so jealous. I promise you, Lego, to be a good and fair Abba, and to always look out for you. I will always be there for you and I will always cheer you on. I look forward to helping you learn your way in this world. And even if you choose not to become a rabbi (your eema does not think you will want to be one), I will love you more than I can even put into words.

:)

Love,

The soon to be Abba
