Just an update – due to Ana’s platelet complications and the expected size of the baby, we have a c-section scheduled for noon next Wednesday, Dec 12th.
We’ll be getting Ana to the hospital around 8am so that they can get an infusion (or more if needed) into her so her platelet count is increased enough to allow for a spinal block during the surgery. Since she’ll be getting up around 3:30am to take her prednisone (doctor’s orders), it’s going to be a very long and tiring day.
Earlier this week I purchased the Canon DC50 DVD camcorder and it’s scheduled to be delivered Friday. I’ve never owned one before, so I want to make sure I’ve gotten used to it by the time the baby arrives. I looked long and hard at HD camcorders but I’m just not ready to commit to bluray or hd-dvd, let alone the headaches that amount of data will introduce. So this is one of the best non-HD ones out there and should hold us over for a few years until I’m ready for HD.
This is the second to last piece of electronics on my list to purchase before the baby arrives – the final being the Canon Speedlite 580Ex II flash. It has been in my Amazon cart for a few weeks now…
