At noon the water was broken and I was dilated at 5 cm. I got the epidural and am now dilated at 6cm and am very happy. Oh! epidural you make everything better. I'm thinking about our third child now.

Oct 1rst

The call at 10: 30 came @ 5:00 am. We got to the room at 6:00 am, and got settled. At 8:20 Erin finally let the nurse put an IV into her arm, so now they can start the various drips. Dr. Fraiser says expect good news at around supper time. Roxxanne says we should see he/she at around noon. Any takers! We will keep you posted. posted at 8:10

September 30 - 9 p.m.

Ok - so we got the call around 6pm that they were taking us for an induction tonite. It was going to be tomorrow night, but we were pretty excited! We made our calls and told everyone! Georgia is in bed and they next time she sees us, she'll be a big sister!

We just have to wait for the call from Rose Medical Center to tell us when to get in the car and go down there. They will induce me at midnight! This could be the last time you see me smiling for the next couple of hours!

We are so excited to find out what we are having!

There is enough hair - sort of - for pony tails. She puts up a mean fight, but I keep trying to explain that people pay me good money for these styles!

She just wants her afro to be free and wild.

This is me on my first day back to work! It was a miracle to make it through the day, but I was really glad to have done it . Every day gets easier.

It looks as though I will find a new place to call "work" upon my return after the baby is born. I will be back to work on October 25, so at that point I'll be in a new spot! I have nothing better to do than to move right now. What could make my life easier?!

I am so looking forward to seeing the baby's face! I wish my water would break and we could start the process! The induction will be on October 2, but if you want to send wishes for tonite, that would be ok with me!

In the big clean for the baby, I managed to reorganize my makeup drawer. For anyone who has seen my makeup drawer of the past, you will view this as a GD miracle!

I had to save the picture, though because I didn't realize that my belly was in the frame. It just gets in the way and I don't even notice!

This is Georgia in her dress from Kelly and trying to wear her rain boots from Rachel! The boots are 2 sizes too big, but she loves putting them on her feet!

Georgia played with her magic castle until she passed out! It's exhausting being a princess! There is so much to do!

We spent my daily 30 minutes of non-bedrest time by going to breakfasts and walks with Georgia! After the 8 weeks on bedrest in the hospital, I put in another 2.5 weeks. Playing with Georgia was the best and I had my helpers there to make life easier! Thanks to Rebecca, Liz, Heidi and Felix! We couldn't have done it without you!

So, I found a bunch of the very same Laura Ashley material at Back on the Rack, that my best friend from high school, Kelly Lee, had in her room growing up! This is it, to the left. Total 1985 throw back! I loved spending the night at Kelly's! The whole room was in this print and there were 2 twin beds. We would watch movies and eat pizza and in the morning, her mom, Auntie Anne would make breakfast. It was the best! When I saw this bedroom set, I was so excited to get it for Georgia's room!

Then, I had to convert the guest room into a magical place for Georgia! So, in my condition, I had a team of helpers that came in and turned our guest room into Georgia's new room!

Special thanks to Auntie M, Heidi, Rebecca, and Matty for ironing linens, hanging curtains, moving furniture and fulfilling my McDonald's request in the middle of it all!

Maximum 13 Days Left!

Ok, so I haven't done the blog since I came home from the hospital. Sorry, fans! I decided, since the clock is tickin', I would get in the latest before I forget about it!

So, these are pictures from the morning that we left the hospital! Georgia woke up really excited and helped with the trips to load up the car! We all said goodbye to Donita, Georgia's favorite red-head! The night before, we had said our goodbyes to our nurses and it was really hard to leave them! They were all such angels and we love them so much! It was really tough! So, we go back and visit them! Georgia walks down the hall by herself now and they squeal, "Is that Georgia?!"

We were so lucky to be in Rose Medical Center with the best nursing care! We look forward to being back there for a delivery!

The first weekend home happened to be Labor Day, so we made sure it was ok with Dr. Fraser and moved my bedrest to the Aviator Pool! Heidi, Zeb and Maya met us there and we spent the entire day there! It felt great to be in the outdoors! To feel the sun and air on my face was the sweetest thing and to be with my family and friends was even sweeter! I ate deviled eggs and sipped on Hansen's Diet Peach Soda. How could life be better?
