This story is magical! Realistic, but with a fairytale ending.

Hi there! Just catching up with reading some fics I missed while on vaca. Just wanted to say that the last part, after the baby was born, brought a tear to my eye and gave me goosebumps. Really lovely ending to a great story. Can't wait to see what you write next! :)

Author's Response:
Thanks so much! I'm not sure when I will write another story. It was pretty hard doing this one with 2 kids and a full-time job, but it was fun.
Thanks for reading and taking the time to review.

Oh, Bees, this was just great. My "Benjamin," who was 3+ weeks early, weighed in at 6 lbs. 10 oz. : D Really nice job. Thanks for finishing this.
Author's Response:
My pleasure. It's quite the excitement having an early baby, isn't it?
Thanks so much for coming along for the ride!

Sniff. Sniff.
I love a good birth story and this is a good birth story. Thank you for taking your experience and sharing it with Jim and Pam.
9pm cannot come soon enough...hope it's at least half as good as your story.
Author's Response:
Thanks so much, jinx. I appreciate you reading and giving me put-ups for my story! It's so wonderful that "she" is here now!

Very cute about the sex mixup, guess the little guy was shy...but Pam, Pam, Pam. Epidurals are your friend. Here's to the real baby Tuna tonight!
Author's Response:
Yes, I can't wait to see that adorable little tin o' tuna!
The fear of epidurals is from my experience, too. I was so young and innocent. By my second baby I smartened up!
Thanks for your review!

Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Oh my god, that was beautiful! Incredibly well written story, and I've loved every word of it! Fantastic job, and I can't wait to see what you come up with next! And congrats on your Benjamin, too!
Author's Response:
Thank you so much for your wonderful words. My Benjamin is now 8, and I also have a Sophie. Needless to say I didn't ask what Sophie was going to be, so she was a lovely surprise, too.
Happy JAM Baby Bird-day!

So glad to see this back! I've really enjoyed these most recent chapters that you've added and look forward to the arrival of the baby :)
Author's Response: Thank you so much! It's been so much fun writing this and I'm glad you are enjoying it. I just submitted the final chapter for approval, so keep your eyes peeled!

Yikes! Poor Pam! Ouch indeed! I don't know... all these baby fics are really lessening the likelihood of me ever having a baby LOL This is great, I'll have to remember to catch up with the rest of this when I get back from vacation! :)
Author's Response:
Ha ha. No, no. It's just intense menstral cramps. Nothing to worry about ;-)
I'm honoured that you are reading my story. I am LOVING your "A Blink of an Eye". Happy holidays!

Thanks for your review!

No fair - not only is Team Canada keeping me in suspense so are you. Come on JAM baby! Another excellent chapter and so realistic.
Author's Response: Thanks, jinx! We had a happy ending to our Olympic hockey story and there will be a happy ending here, too. Stay tuned!

Happy Sunday, Bees! Things are moving now! Great imagery here: *At the bottom of her bed were two very large feet, crossed at the ankles. Her eyes swept down the long, lanky legs to find Jim sleeping in a chair. His late afternoon stubble cast a shadow across his face and his lips were slightly parted. She smiled slightly before poking him with her blanketed toes.* As before, Dwight and Michael are great comic relief.
Author's Response:
A Happy Sunday to you too! Thanks so much for your wonderful review. I'm glad you enjoyed the image of Jim sleeping. I think I enjoyed it too ;-)

aww, I want a Jim/John Krasinski!!! Very nicely done, and accurate sounding (as I have NO CLUE what childbirth is like. I'm imagining INCREDIBLY painful!). Anyways, great job and I can't wait to read the succession of chapters coming soon!
Author's Response:
Well, the Jim in this story is based on my husband. He was amazing during my labour. He knew exactly what to say and do. Oh, and I was hoping the description of the pain was translating. It's been 6 years since I felt that pain. My body may forget, but my mind remembers.
Thanks so much for your review!

Welcome back, Bees! I remember loving this lo those many months ago when you started it. I took your advice and re-read from the beginning. It really brought me back into the story and reminded me why I enjoyed it so much. Your characterizations are so good. Michael and Dwight cracked me up :) Looking forward to the coming chaps (and Baby Halpert, of course).
Author's Response: Thanks so much, Nan! Your kind words put a smile on my face :-) Look forward to the next chapter tonight!
Date: February 26, 2010 07:20 pm Title: The Waiting Game
This was good. Poor Pam, having Michael and Dwight show up would really make you wanna cry lol. Update soon :)
Author's Response: Yes, Michael and Dwight are not the support Pam needs. Thanks for your review and look for an update tomorrow!

Yay for an update! I really liked this chapter, very nice job and I can't wait to see how you continue this!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! The next chapter is already written and there will probably be one more after that, so stay tuned :-)

YAY! Another chapter! What a treat. I can feel the frustration, terror and excitement Bees. Oh my gosh, less than a week to go AND this story to look forward to as well. Life is good!
Virtually touching JBK is also good :)
Author's Response: Thanks so much, jinx! I'm glad you are pickin' up what I'm puttin' down. Oh, and congrats again on having Johnny K answer your question and therefore virtually touching JBK. You lucky duck!

Just discovered this fic and love it! Everyone is written so in character - and I can absolutely see Michael deciding that he would need to be there. Hope you continue. Can't wait to read what's next :)
Author's Response: I just discovered your review! I don't know if you are still a part of ficdom, but thank you for your review.

Dwight and Michael. At your birth. Scariest. Thought. Ever. Everything they said (Especally Michael)was perfectly in character, so I'm expecting a lot of fun in this next chapter.
Author's Response:
I hope to have a lot of fun with the next chapter when real life stops getting in my way so I can write it!
Thanks for reading and reviewing!

great chapter. god, i'd hate to have michael as a boss. sigh. great chapter. i already said that... whatever!
Author's Response: Thanks for your review and yes, having Michael as a boss would be scary.
Date: August 20, 2009 07:31 am Title: Let's go have a baby!
Oh this story is beyond cute, and this is a simply superb Michael line - I can just see his indignant expression: “Uh, Oscar, do those medical professionals love Pam like I do? Are those medical professionals going to hug and hold Jim when he's scared? I mean I'm practically the Godfather of that baby. They need me.” That's gold.
Plus, this story is bringing the (fictional) reality home that my favorite (fictional) couple, after all the angst, is really having a baby. It's still hard for me to believe.
Author's Response: Thanks so much, jazzfan. It is pretty amazing that there will soon be wedding and baby cannon on the show. It's a JAMmer's dream come true.

Pam's piglet! *snort* I'm anxious and excited! You really do capture everyone's voices so well, Bees.
Author's Response: Thank you! There's lots of excitement to come ;-)

That's a cruel doctor. I really hope Pam's actual doctor is nicer than that.
Yes, I called it!
Great chapter. Please update soon.
Author's Response:
Yeah, that's pretty close to the conversation I had with the doctor on call when I went into labour. He was very casual about everything and first time mothers are so not casual! It will be interesting to see what Pam's experience is like on the show, especially since it's a comedy.
Thanks for reading and reviewing!

lol. Your Michael/Dwight dynamic is so spot on. Fun stuff!
Author's Response: Thank you, LoveFool. I guess my years...and years...and years of watching Michael and Dwight have paid off. More fun to come next week!
