It appears Lukas will be arriving soon! Us two dads hung out with his birthmom most of the day today, along with two of her other three sons (ages 1.5 and 6, totally adorable and good boys). We all had a great time together. We know it's getting really close, Lukas' mom was definitely in some pain (poor thing!) having periodic contractions in her lower back throughout the day, and she was also getting some other indicators that the delivery should be happening very soon.
We said goodbye to each other for the day around 3:30pm, by but 7pm she called and was having much more frequent contractions. She had a friend take her to the hospital to get checked, and she is now dialated 4cm, and she is pretty sure Lukas will be arriving tomorrow (now today, 12/11) in the morning or afternoon! They sent her home for right now, but she is officially "in labor." Poor mamma is in some pain, but her spirits were high, as they have been for most of this journey---she is truly a wonderful person.
We are very excited! It's nearing 1am now, and we're pretty much ready for the call saying "time to head to the hosptial." We'll see if we can get any sleep in the meantime.
See you soon, Lukas Kontoravdis Bourdon!!!
