I am not sure it is accurate to say I am a better SAHD. Rory, the home birth experience is nothing but awesome. You won't regret it. Hope it works out for you and thanks for the "best wishes" with #5. Maybe I will post sometime soon about my experiences with home births. Phil, thanks for the nice words.

Kath and I were hoping to have our first at home, but it didn't work out that way. It is still our determination for our second, but we'll have to see about that. Wishing you all the best as things progress with your 5th!! It is encouraging to hear your good experiences, Steve. Kath and I were hoping to have our first at home, but it didn’t work out that way.

Just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed your posts over the past year. Looking forward to more great blogging in 2007! Good luck with #5. You are a far, far better SAHD than me. I can barely handle my two. Steve, Happy New Year from Idaho!

She did some amazing midwife-ninja move and removed the cord. For me it was in Matrix-like slow motion. I guess you could say I got the catch and she got the save. It was a long labor, much longer that the first 2. She was posterior, with her hand on her face. But even with that, it was still peaceful and serene. My oldest daughter (8 at the time) cut the cord. The whole thing was incredible. I caught and quickly handed her to the midwife, because the cord was around the baby’s neck. She did some amazing midwife-ninja move and removed the cord.

We had our 3rd daughter at home (she's 2 now) and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I basically delivered her (well that's the story I like to tell anyway - the midwife was a big help ;) Man, what an awesome feeling. Very cool Steve, I know that feeling.
