This week Nathan has turned into "my little lover" as I call him. He had decided to be really affectionate toward me and Daniel. Nathan reaches out for hugs fifty times a day. He doesn't want to be picked up, just a hug. Nathan has also learned to kiss. But he doesn't just like to kiss me on the cheek. He tries to kiss me and I turn my head, then turn the other way and he tries again. Then he usually grabs my face so he can kiss my lips. Normally I wouldn't mind this gesture. but Nathan has allergies that equals a constant runny nose. Thank you son for the snotty kiss.
Almost from the day that I found out that I was pregnant, I thought that Jesus told me (weird, I know) that baby Goulet was going to come on October 21st. October 21st is also the anniversary of Daniel and I getting engaged. The year that we got engaged October 21st was sweetest day, so Daniel thought that it was a perfect day to get engaged. Even though I have thought that whole time that I would have a baby on the 21st, I am not a patient woman. And I especially do not like surprises, so the suspense of going in the labor was killing me (see previous posts). On the 20 th , in my quest to go into labor I drank Castor oil. Gross I know, but I mixed it with juice and it wasn't bad. I went for me daily walk, and felt nothing. Within a couple of hours, the Castor oil had kicked in. Castor oil in found at drug stores, and is typically used as a laxative. I can now say from personal experience, that it is a good laxative if you would like to completely clean your bowels out...
