Things we’ve done while waiting for baby bobo to arrive:
1. installed the car seat (see picture below)
2. drank starbucks from the hospital coffee shop
3. ate lunch at chipotle (yum!)
4. went to a movie (Karate Kid!)
5. went to a grocery store
6. talked to the birth mom, nurses, gift shop lady, and information desk people at the hospital
7. had text message conversations with family
8. blogged!
Yep, that sums up our exciting day so far. Now we just heard that we’ll probably have quite a bit more time to wait so we’re going to go find some dinner. Hopefully we’ll have news of baby bobo to share with y’all soon!

My name is Laura – Mark Requa is my cousin. Reading your account here reminds me so much of our own journey, when our son entered our family over 6 years ago now. A couple near-rabid drives to the hospital; occasionally awkward moments with the birthmom, whom we loved and respected; trying to grasp how our lives were about to change; and most of all, this crazy love for a brand new baby! I wish you all the happiness as this new chapter in life is unfolding for you. Cherish this time, and sleep now, while you still can! :)
Congratulations!
