The World cup is over. Italy won the cup. I was nice and waited till all the games are done because I know they all wanted to watch the finals. Started giving Mommy hints I am coming tonight by kicking around all day. They thought I was just kicking the ball :) |

Came back from
walking with Mommy, Daddy and Teta Nadia. The breeze was nice and cool. I think it might be a good night to come out. |

Said good night to Teta and went to bed with Mommy and Daddy (still in the Tummy). It was warm that night. I liked the cool breeze earlier |
| 2:00 am | I kicked Mommy and
the water broke. She screamed, "Samer turn on the lights, my
water broke." We are having a baby... Wake up Teta Nadia ...we need to go to the hospital. That was very exciting and nice. Mommy was excited and Daddy too. It is a great feeling. |
| 2:20 am | Mommy and Daddy took showers, we prepared all the bags, cameras, and baby's stuff. We put all the stuff in the car |
| 2:25 am | We are out of the house and headed to the hospital. I can feel that cool breeze. I told you it was nice. |
| 2:30 am | Mommy did not want to go to the hospital too early. She asked Daddy to stop for gas. I started kicking and we started the contractions. |
| 2:37 am | We got to the hospital and entered from the Emergency Door. They admitted us in the labor and delivery |
| 3:00 am | They checked on
Mommy, she was 4 cm dilated., 90% ephased. I guess I'm coming today... Are you ready for me? |
| 3:31 am | We called Uncle Tamer to tell him I am coming. I can see that big grin on his face |
| 3:34 am | Called Teta Munira to inform her I am coming. She was very excited. |
| 3:41 am | We called Khalto Ola. She started crying. I know it is happy tears. She really wanted to be with Mom. |
| 3:50 am | Called Jido Maurice. He did not answer. He must be at lunch or in a meeting. Busy guy that Jido !!! |
| 4:00 am | Uncle Imad called after Jido told him to call because he was driving and could not get to his phone. |
| 5:08 am | Mommy still in bed waiting for full dilation. We called Uncle Issam but he did not answer. |
| 5:10 am | Uncle Tamer called to check on progress. |
| 5:15 am | Dad went to Safeway to get some water and Energy drinks. All are getting anxious for me to come. |
| 5:40 am | Teta Munira, Aunti
Zakieh and Aunti Naheel called to check on our progress and see
how Mommy is feeling. "Make sure Luma is ok", Teta Munira said. |
| 5:47 am | Khalto Ola is now on edge. She sent a message to check. Too many messages and questions Khalto. Just wait I am coming !!!! |
| 6:00 am | We tried Khalo Issam again. This time he picked up. We told him I am coming. |
| 6:40 am | Mommy is hurting from contractions. She can't stand it anymore. We took an epidural. Things are cool and grovy now. |
