Telling Jokes

Simon has recently acquired a joke repertoire. Here Andy caught his two most reliable jokes on camera--the first is thanks the Andy, the second thanks to daycare. In case you have trouble interpreting, here's how the jokes are supposed to go:

Q: Where does a General keep his Armies?

A: In his sleevies!

1: Knock knock

2: Who's there?

1: Boo

2: Boo who?

1: Don't cry, its just a joke!

(clearly the back-and-forth nature of this one is lost on Simon, who likes to recite the entire thing as quickly as possible, over and over and over and over...)

In baby news, we have a date set for C-section: May 10th. So, assuming all goes well (never a guarantee of course), we'll be welcoming our new little one a week from tomorrow. If all does not go well, we'll probably be welcoming our new little one a bit sooner than that. Today we are at 36 weeks gestation, which was kind of the goal from the doctor's point of view (we wanted to wait as long as possible, so he agreed to scheduling the section at 37 weeks, 1 day, but his ideal timeframe was/is anywhere in the 36-37 week range, as the still don't want me going into labor for risk of bleeding)...so I'm guessing that if anything exciting (serious contractions, etc.) were to happen now, they would probably just deliver the baby rather than try to postpone one more week. We're crossing our fingers that doesn't happen, but it is reassuring to know that we're far enough along that baby should be just fine whenever s/he arrives.
