No news.
Y’all, put yer bells on and do some birthing dances for our Mrs Squirrel. Perhaps we can time a group yell “Come out! Come out! Come out little Oliver!” Okay, everyone synchronize their watches [man, I just realized how much I’ve always wanted to say that. For reals.] for 5:30pm EST…and send those good, strong pushing vibes towards the greater Upstate New York area.

Noon-thirty update:
We’re back from our party and Henry is napping. Wish I could say the same for Mrs Squirrel, who reported at just about 10am:
Pitocin up to 30 milliunits which means I’m starting to feel like ass. Doc expects to break my water around lunchtime. I’m starving!!!!! Seriously need a burrito.

9:00AM, inaugural Cletus Birth update:
I’m tempted to start quoting The Beatles and go all “You say it’s your birthday, wannnanannnanannnanah” but I’m tone deaf, so I’ll spare you.
It’s Lizzy, you know…from hilarities ensue. And I’ll be semi-live blogging for Mrs Squirrel today….her second son’s birth day.
I received the following transmission around 8:00 this morning, shortly before those hospital nazis required the powering down of a certain Squirrel’s Blackberry:
Emailing u from the bathroom before I have to turn off my blackberry. The fucking IV hurt like a mofo and after several unsuccessful attempts, another nurse had to take a stab at my other arm. Good times. I’m reconsidering this whole labor thing… I don’t think I want the pain. Any ideas??? Starting pitocin soon. Trying to poop now so I don’t do it on the table — tmi? Jojo at home with grandma. No decisions on name. More news later!!!
Watch this space for updates throughout the day. But be warned, Mrs Squirrel is under strict instructions NOT to deliver The Baby I Shall Call Oliver Because She Hasn’t Named the Kid Yet until after 12:00 noon, because Henry and I have a birthday party to attend this afternoon and won’t be home until said time.

Good luck to everyone! Mrs. Squirrel, Mr. Squirrel, Cletiver and Lizzy (for timing, you know, so that you can do both the party and the Squirrel online baby partay).
Going to teach now. I’m not available for another 4 hours, so don’t do anything until I get back.

Happy co-birthday to CPA Mom!It is mine too!
I am really excited for the Squirrels! I even looked up squirrels on Wikipedia to see if the babies were called something cute like kits or cubs or something, but there is no special name for little squirrels, except Cletus. I have to go to work now, so I will have to wait until about 8 to hopefully hear about the painfree birth of a healthy baby! I hate to miss out on anything though.

Sending some good birthing vibes from up the damn street. Perhaps Cletus The Not Quite A Fetus Anymore, will be able to feel them from a mile away.
March 4th, 2008 at 8:31 pm, Nic Says:
Come on baby squirrel. Here’s hoping Mrs. Squirrel is basking in the awesome and too busy to alert us.
March 4th, 2008 at 8:35 pm, Audrey Says:
Don’t worry, Mrs. Squirrel, I had a burrito for you at lunch. And then I came home to find my husband cooking burritos, so it looks like it’s going to be a burrito-filled day. It’s all in your honor, of course. Hope he makes a (pain-free-as-possible) appearance soon!
March 4th, 2008 at 8:37 pm, Cassie Says:
It’s 8:37 and still no news! Hopefully he’s here by now, for Mrs. Squirrel’s sake! Can’t wait to see little Mr. Cletus.
