one: to the happy parents. yay for babies!
two: to KB for not being pregnant anymore...& delivering the baby herself. in the car. like a boss.
yes. you read that right. & "omg wtf?!" is an appropriate response.
i was waiting for baby news so when i saw a text from KB i was like- hooray! but then i read said text & was like- dude. what?!
so let's break this down:
- she's in the car
- the baby says, "yo. i want out. now."
- she had to break the sac of water
- deliver the baby
- then deliver the afterbirth
- whilst taking care of the baby
-...in the car
i read this to the husband who was like, "Good Lord. that woman is a saint."
i concured, & then pondered aloud if this means she's technically a doctor now. & if so, does that mean she needs a significant raise?
she may be overqualified now. just sayin.
after i determined that all was well i couldn't help but ask about the state of the car. i mean, hello- you just had a baby in your car. that can't be pretty.
she quickly informed me that it was her sister's car (dude- i think someone is getting a good Christmas present this year) & that yes- a hardcore detailing is in order.
i'm imagining the conversation that would accompany dropping the car off:
"ok- so you need a full internal detail?"
"yes."
"anything specific you want us to focus on?"
"preferably the backseat."
"ok- any particular reason?"
"...well we had a baby back there. so if you could just make sure to get out all the blood & amniotic fluid, that'd be great!"
"...come again?"
so glad i'm not in the car detailing business.
so once again- congrats to the new parents & KB.
i promise there won't be 2+ weeks of un-folded laundry on your return.
promise.

OMG WTH???? Thats insane!!!!!! I cant even imagine! Congrats to her!
OMG!!! Wow! I was close to delivering in our car on the way to the hospital (arrived at 10cm) but there is no way that I could imagine having to actually do so. Kudos to her for being one hell of an amazing mommy!
WOAH!!! That's like my worst nightmare, haha. not
ohymword. these are the things that only happen in TV shows. crazy.
glad she and the babe are doing just fine!
That's insane! She's a birthing machine and a saint!
Hilarious!
I just saw this story on thebostonchannel.com!
I certainly ended up on the news after delivering Gwyneth while home alone :P
I live in MA and saw this on the news last night. I said to my husband, "Look! I know her! She is the Nanny for a girl who's blog I follow" and my husband was all, "so you don't really know her at all?" He totally doesn't understand the internet....
