The RNC is coming to town
The streets into downtown St. Paul are being closed one by one as the RNC gets closer and closer. Good thing we get out tomorrow as I think the whole street will be shut down come Monday.
Baby had a very good night. All tests continue to be positive.
End of day two
Ben and mom are doing just fine. She’s up and about a little and he’s come through two tough tests and found his appetite. We are blessed.

Big sister
Linnea opened her “big sister” t-shirt a little while ago. I told her that tonight would be the last night of being an only child.
Tomorrow is a big day for everyone.
No Gnus is Good Gnus
24 hours to go and we still have no news.
This is good news, of course. We’re hoping for nothing, prepared for something, but don’t want just anything. Nothing, until tomorrow, where it’ll be a big something, but not just any something. Nothing to it.
