Nestled in My Sling


The first time we tried our sling, baby girl was NOT a big fan. We tried again yesterday because I wanted to dry my hair. Well, I think it was a combo of the sling and the hair dryer noise, but wow, she loved it. She just hung out and then took a great nap in there-- we were able to go on a walk and then get some of the photos on here for you to see.

So snug. The closest thing to being back in the belly I think.

The Belly Button Debut

Happy Easter!



We have quite a few bunny outfits because I was just sure our sweet girl was "due" on Easter per my first sonogram and my estimation of things. My doctors kept saying her "due date" was 3/16. Well don't you know I started having contractions on my actual due date (3/16/08) and she was born the next afternoon looking like a full term baby (long fingernails and no vernix). I stand happily corrected and am so glad she came on her own. Good thing I bought that shamrock dress "just in case" :).

Happy Birthday Nana!

Ok so its probably just gas... but a gift just the same.

Finley's first Dr's Appointment

3 days old: Daddy and Finley before her first visit to the Pediatrician.

Sweet Girl loved the car ride to the doctor. Her pediatrician said she was "perfect". We agree :).

Awaiting Her Arrival...


I cannot believe it's March already and our baby girl will be here any day now. I'm 38 weeks pregnant. (wow). So as Chris says ... "it's go time". We're so excited. Though it's very surreal...Although she's so real to me in my belly, it is so hard to imagine she will very soon be in our arms.

Today we scheduled an induction date in case she doesn't decide to come on her own before then. It's set for March 21st and we may get sent in the night of the 20th- it depends on how ready she and my body are to have her as we approach that date.
