hmph

T - 38 and a half weeks pregnant in Tokyo
J - in Paris on a work trip

and a freakin' volcano erupts in Iceland, grounding all planes in and out of Europe.

J was set to fly out tomorrow evening (France time). Is waiting to see what happens, but currently all flights are grounded or cancelled. I don't hold out much hope for seeing J home over the weekend.

I am starting to wonder just how long TJ-baby is gonna hold out for us....I kinda "felt" that TJ-baby was gonna wait until J got home, but I guess there is only so much TJ-baby can take too.......more leg crossing, I guess.

Oh, and I am now sporting one dooser of a haircut - why I insisted upon going to a new hairdressers at 38weeks pregnant I will never know.... I basically have a boy-cut (something I have never had) - and a bad one at that, as she went a bit rambo on me and cut off a LOT more than I thought I asked for (and than the photo of me in the haircut I wanted seemed to show....) If only TJ-baby holds out in there until my hair grows back now.....

  1. Yikes-when I first saw the volcano on news I thought it was a great way to extend a holiday in Europe!! Now I have been woken to the reality that there are so people who would rather come home.

    Hope TJ-baby can do all it possibly can to meet daddy on the same day it is born. As much as daddy wants to be there I am sure TJ-baby and daddy realise that coming safely is the best thing. Thinking of you

    Don't worry about your hair-it grows back!!!

  4. I'm so glad your parents are with you now!

    I know how much you want J to be around for the birth, and I hope for your sake he is, but wow what a story to tell baby tj in the future if he isn't.lol Or even if J does make it in time for that matter!!

    Ganbare!!

  5. Oh man. What a crap time for a volcano to erupt. Couldn`t it have waited???? HMPH!

    I hope J is back with you soon! And that TJ baby stays put until then.

    Sorry about the hair cut- I hate it when that happens. I have had some doozies in Japan too!
