Look, "Another plastic mermaid toy!"


After opening hunks of plastic (toys) and a new kid-size couch with princesses all over it (slight gag), Magnolia is pumped for next year's holiday season already.
She's also gotten really into gum (Rudoplh left her some in her stocking) which came in handy when Jason got stuck in 8 hours of traffic driving our nanny to the airport (a new piece every 10 minutes). At least we have a new tour trick for the van.


We're still mixing the record, in between group vocal overdubs and arm wrestling tournaments. Peter (engineer/producer) says Jason is his toughest competition yet. I didn't compete because no one wants to be beaten by a short pregnant girl. For the record, I'm pretty sure I'm tougher than all three of the dudes here.
Speaking of tough, labor will be starting in less than 24 hours. I'm being induced tomorrow due to the potential size of my soon to be newborn.

Magnolia and I hugging for the last time before we're a 4 person family.
Baby will be here tomorrow or Friday.
I get to meet my new daughter within 48 hours. That's pretty incredible. Goodbye big belly. Hello little (big) baby.
