The Long Haul

Shannon has progressed very little as of 11:00am Thursday. She's caught in limbo right now – too far (5 cm, 70%) to be sent home or have her labor stopped artificially but not far enough along (36 weeks) to induce her.

I'm home just for a pit stop. Thanks to both Grandmas and my family and the Dilley's for getting us through the last 24 hours. Hopefully, we'll have little Graham in the next 24 hours.

Oh, and please no visitors. We're absolutely drained and exhausted. We've walked miles in the hallways of the hospital and have slept hardly at all; Shannon hasn't eaten since breakfast Wednesday. When we finally have this baby, we'll need some rest, first and foremost.
