Colton Christopher






He's here ! Colton Christopher arrived Friday the 26th at 11:50 pm. He weighted 6 lbs 11 oz and is 20.5 inches long (funny, Laney weighed exactly the same and was 20 inches- guess I'm consistent!) We got home today around lunch time and are trying to get settled in.
I'll give you the rest of story some other time...

Quick Baby Update...

Okay- so I've been in baby mode and ignoring my blog, cooking, cleaning, and phone calls.... sorry- don't know why I get like this but for some reason I feel like hibernating. It was like this with Laney too so rest assured I'll be back to my normal slightly anti-social self sometime :). However, judging by the amount of text messages I've been getting today- some of you are curious about when this little guy is going to show up- so here's a quick update for ya.

* I'll be 39 weeks on Tuesday, and the Dr has schedule and induction on March 4th, if I make it that long- so if nothing else we'll have a baby a week from today :)

* For the last two weeks I've been effaced and dilated- my Doc is concerned that because the baby's head is so low (especially for a second baby) that it will be a quick delivery and that I need to get my pregnant tush headed to the hospital the minute I have any consistent contractions. For those of you who know me, this revelation had caused me MUCH stress and worry and I now spend my days worried that I will either have to deliver without an epidural ( the horror, the horror) or that Ryan will be playing catch the baby somewhere on the side of 395 (both are TERRIFYING ). Lets hope that doesn't happen...

* Today Laney lifted up my shirt and told the baby to "get out". Hmmm, wonder where she heard that one...

* I have another Dr's appointment tomorrow so we'll see.... Laney and I both have a miserable cold right now so I'm kinda hoping this little guys waits a day or two so I have some time to get over it.

Alrighty- there's your update.... now I'm going to go back into hiding- I'll let you all know when he decides to get here!

A Little Fancy Nancy...

Delaney LOVES her Fancy Nancy book- and this weekend I think she decided to take some fashion advice from Nancy...



Sorry about the various states of undress, but getting and keeping clothes on this girl is no easy task lately! Guess her "real clothes" aren't fancy enough :)
