stubborn kid

Stubborn kids are what Shaun and I have. We had an amniocentesis on Monday and were hoping that his lungs where going to mature enough that we could have him this week or next week. That way we both him and I would have some time before we move down to Florida to recover. But this little boy is going to be stubborn and take his time, when the test results came back they said his lungs were really immature and the eeriest that they would induce me was the 3rd of June. Well, Shaun is going to be gone that whole week for graduation from med school and so that wasn't sounding very fun for me to do things by myself. So after talking it over and looking at schedules and stuff we decided that we should just wait until the 10th and then Shaun will be here. So sorry to get everyone excited that we were going to have a baby soon, but we will all just have to be patient and wait until this little boy decides that he is ready to come out. So the plan is for Shaun to be here for the delivery and then drive down to Florida with his dad, and then soon after me and the kids and my mom and sister will drive down and meet him. Janalee decided that she was going to be born on time either and was a week and a half late before I got induced. So now this little boy is taking his own sweet time and wants to be born on the 10th-which is Shaun's birthday so that is fun. So, everyone pray that there aren't any complications with the birth and we will all be ok to drive down to Florida when we need to. Fun times ahead for the Simmons family.

Kids have a way of letting you know early on that your life is not your own...I'm sure it'll all be fine...just hope his tardiness isn't a life long habit. Love you guys.
