Algorithm Error

Just an FYI. The Baby Counter widget to the right has a programming error I believe. It does not show days past the due date, but begins to count back up. So they must have used an absolute value formula or something. Anyways, what I am trying to say is that when you look at the widget, it is telling you how many days past due Jessie is, if you have it in the "Days to Go" mode (click on the countdown until it shows days to go).

We called in today at 5:30 AM to see if there were any beds available. None. Then at 9:00 AM, then they said they would call at 10 AM. They called back at around 9:50 AM saying that there was a bed available and that they were about to call her, but then another woman showed up in active labor. "Sorry Ms. Rice, you almost got to have your baby." Yeah, thanks for nothin'.

So now we have to call in tomorrow and she is the first one on the list and "guaranteed a spot." We will keep everyone posted.

At least now we have the chance to have a "birthday straight." The kids b-day's will be 13, 14, 15, 16, 17. Pretty cool.

Ashley, Jan 13th; Andi, Aug 14th; Spencer, Jan 15th; TBD, Sep 16th; and Ainslee, Feb 17th.
