hey...at least your due date isn't, I dunno, tomorrow....

Lilian:

Oh dear, would you really like to give birth at CHOP? :-)

Maybe I could bring dinner along with those nursing clothes if you're still around next week.

Keri:

I'm commenting but nothing about your pregnancy, I promise! ;) I wanted to say that we STILL eat your taco salad at least once a week-so delicious! Thanks sooooo much for introducing it to us last summer! ;)

Dawn:

Jeannette,

I know miserable and lack of zzzzz's is right up your alley right now...but that was the funniest post EVER! Loved the last bit, ha! (and you know I'm not laughing at you but with you, right?)
