Finally came to a decision to go for the homebirth! We decided that home is the best place for us to have this baby and we have a ton of faith and trust in the midwife who will be assisting us in bringing Michael into this world. After all the let downs by nurses, midwives, and doctors at Borgess and the uncertainty of which of the 8 midwives will actually be on call (if we knew Trinie would be there it would be a whole different story), we just aren't comfortable with any "simple errors" happening during delivery and really just want the comfort of our own home and the one on one attention of a midwife that we know and love. We are so stoked that Loralei will be able to be with us during labor/delivery and definitely able to snuggle and participate in those first few precious hours. Now I have ensured Mike that pizza hut delivers if he is worried about not being able to order food for every meal and if I can just get a janitorial staff to clean up after us, we will be all set.
Loralei had a blast at the zoo yesterday even though it just rained and rained. Here are a couple pictures from our trip.

I'm so excited to see you really enjoying this pregnancy now! And it looks like the zoo was tons of fun! Loralei is such a cutie- I'm excited about seeing both of you in a few weeks!!
