Happy Birthday!

SHE'S FINALLY HERE!!!
Last Tuesday, May 11, we checked in to the hospital to begin the induction process. The plan was to start some medication at 5 p.m., then (if needed) start Pitocin the following morning between 5 a.m. and 6 a.m. Well, the Pitocin was NOT needed! Things began quickly around midnight, followed by phone calls to parents around 1:15 a.m. AND...our baby girl made her entrance into the world at 3:30 a.m.

SO...(drumroll please...)...we are excited to introduce Lexie Catherine, born May 12, 2010 at 3:30 a.m. 8 lbs. 10 oz., 20 1/2 inches

We have been doing really well at home so far - thanks in large part to help from my mom who has been staying with us! She is leaving this weekend and we will definitely miss her help!!!
Lexie asked me to wish a very special "Happy Birthday" to Mama Lynn (my mom) - who spent her birthday taking care of us!!! We love you!

39 weeks and counting!

Hey all!
Well, I tried to post some pictures from the last few weeks and couldn't get them to upload (???). Anyway, we are at about 39 1/2 weeks. I go back to the doctor tomorrow. Jamie keeps telling me I need to go into labor while we're in Jackson...ha...I told him I'd see what I could do. :) Will post more with new pics after baby gets here - unless she waits a long time...in which case I'll try the other ones again. Ha!
