Yesterday, the nurses surprised Geeta and told her that they wanted us to stay the night Wednesday and Thursday at the hospital and take the babies home Friday. We were caught off guard since we had planned for at least a few more days to get the house in order, to get some advance cooking and groceries done etc etc. Geeta was able to negotiate a couple of extra days for us and she has been home busily getting things in order. We'll be camping out at the hospital on Friday and Saturday and likely bringing home the babies on Sunday!! We can't wait to bring our little ones home...such an exciting feeling after a very long month in and out of the hospital on a daily basis. We are nervous (at least i am) and excited at the same time.
The three babies passed their car seat test today so as long as mommy and daddy can handle the babies ourselves at the hospital on Friday and Saturday we should be good to go. Our van (i.e. big ship) is all ready to go with three car seat bases installed by the Toronto Police Department. Keep you posted on how things go this weekend.
On a side note - It's funny how nature works sometimes. Geeta and I have had this ugly looking plant in our home for over ten years - from the days of when we were dating through to the present day. We have taken it from home to home over the years and in the back of our heads we always questioned why we kept such a nasty looking thing. The damn thing has not grown an inch in 10 years! ...then all of a sudden.....this week it decides to grow a nasty-ass flower for the first time ever (see below)....just in time for the arrival of our little ones at home. What a sweet present :) Who knew that this plant was even capable of flowering??
Thank you Mr. Ugly Plant. We will now keep you for another 10 years and hopefully you will give us another flower the week before the kids leave to attend university :)
