Sighed Mayzie, a lazy bird hatching an egg:
"I'm tired and I'm bored
And I've kinks in my leg
From sitting, just sitting here day after day.
It's work! How I hate it!
I'd much rather play!
I'd take a vacation, fly off for a rest
If I could find someone to stay on my nest!
-From Horton Hatches the Egg by Dr. Seuss
At least I'm not just sitting, but I wouldn't mind passing the baton to someone else for a while. Not too many days left (we hope).

Bad Guy Danger? I don't get it.
This is something that we started to call Henry after a conversation about pre-birth names for Helena. We called Nora "Butterbean" and Henry "Urho" before they had actual names. We were asking Nora what we should call a new baby and she suggested "Bad Guy Danger." Well, it was too funny not to use immediately and it became a nickname for Henry.
Of course, as Nora mentioned later, "Henry isn't really a bad guy."

Time for people to start stalking your blog now, eh? Having a baby does wonders for the stats, especially if you go past your due date. :) Which, of course, we hope you do not do!
I love it when children's books provide the perfect quotes. :)
