While we're all waiting for a baby...

Josie was born 12 days early at 6:31pm. Something to think about-- it would be today. So instead of that I'll post some recent pictures of Josie.

She loves to climb on the bed and look at herself in the little mirror
This is the picture I got when I told her to say cheese. I thought it was so funny that it actually worked! It's a pretty good smile. haha.

What a cutie! She's finally walking by the way. One day she just decided she was ready and now she's standing from a sit and going like crazy. Thanks goodness I won't have to carry two!

To Whom It May Concern:

I just got back from the doctor and I'm only dilated to a 1. But effacing quite well (I don't know the percentage). I was thinking I'd be farther along, so I was disappointed that I was "right on schedule". With Josie I was at a 3 for a month and super effaced. But I got to thinking about all the stress in my life at that time-- with Allison dying and Dan trying to finish his thesis and graduate, working was stressful, we were packing up to move, it was my first kid so all the unknown that goes with that... Sheesh! I have no stress right now. We're not moving. I have a room to put my baby in. Dan's in school and doing great. I've done this before, and I get a birthing suite with a jacuzzi tub and I'm in the same room for delivery until I go home... awesome. So I guess I just have to wait. So that's doable. I'm doing good. I'm just tired. But good!
