New sibling expected sooooon....

Bella has been with me more than usual of late, and we're having a great time making things with clay and some bizarre compound called Play-Doh (I've been instructed not to reveal what we are making). Meanwhile I've been so distracted, preparing for the trip to England and Wales, that I can't seem to take pictures at all. The trip begins Wednesday. I'm packed, Sue is packed, and Bella's mom is packed (for the hospital). The new baby may come before we leave. We're hoping Bella's father can get home in time for the birth--he's off on a gig. Life is one grand surprise after another. 

UPDATE: Saturday morning, we're at the hospital. I drove the two of them here at 3:30 a.m. Baby on the way. My son is in the air on the way home, but he probably won't make it in time for the birth. Got the camera ready.
