Ready & Waiting (Dreamtime in the Meantime)

Cub: Can you guess who is who?
Jen: Yes, I'm Ready!
Cub: And, I'm Waiting.
Jen: Still a couple of weeks until the scheduled arrival though. As you might expect, I'm starting to get a little uncomfortable.
Cub: The baby just keeps drooping a little lower each day. It's like waiting for the New Year in really slow motion.
Jen: Speaking of "Where's your head at"...If you have seen Cubby lately, you will have noticed a change in hair trends. Over the winter break we watched a full faced beard grow in,

which has recently diminished to a goatee. Did this chain of events precipitate a dream sequence?
Last night,the baby was born weighing 5lbs and measuring 14inches...,now I know I'm dreaming; the belly says he has far surpassed that size.
Anyway, in the dream...The baby was sitting on my lap in a diaper. He had these long shiny,dark brown, reddish tinted, 1/2inch long hairs growing on his legs and he was rubbing them. Cubby came over to talk to him and I mentioned how much Cubby and the baby looked like each other. At that point, the baby said," see, look at my hairs, Daddy!" I then looked at Cubby said,"I told you he would be hairy." It was a very matter of a fact dream conversation, but at this point, you may be laughing along with me.

According to this dream interpretation site,
http://astrocenter.astrology.msn.com/msn/DreamDictionary3.aspx
,here's what a hairy dream may mean:

Hair
1. An ancient symbol for strength and power. See BALD. Thick, luxuriant hair is a symbol for good health, and thin, wispy hair a sign of oncoming illness.
2. Brushing or combing the hair indicates finding the solution to a problem. Dreaming of someone pulling your hair implies betrayal.
