***UPDATE!

July 29, 2008...5:00 pm

Boy, does God have a sense of humor! After a wonderful time of prayer and fellowship with Him this morning, I was at peace, surrended, and totally resigned that I would probably have to wait another week or so. I planned on going to the doctor, hearing I hadn't progressed, smiling, and going home to wait on the Lord. NOT! My doctor looked at me, said he had good news, told me I was dilated to 2, 25% effaced, and that I would need to check into the hospital tomorrow afternoon at 4:00, stay overnight, and be induced Thursday morning. WHAT???????????
I could not have been more shocked. I am STILL in shock! Can you all hear God laughing at me?
I was soooo worried about next week when He had planned this week all along. Now I'm "scrambling" because mentally I am so floored by this news. A July baby ya'll! Oh my goodness-I have to go get a car seat in the car, Abby's bags packed, etc. etc. Seriously, can you HEAR God laughing!!!!! Pray for me! :)

I wonder if Alivia is going to keep you guessing and surprised all the time?

My Bailey and Brooke are sooooo different!

I am so excited...I can't wait to meet her!
Are you a Brookwood or a St. Vincent's girl?

Where is Abby going to stay?

I'll be at Brookwood! Abby will be with my mom when she's not at the hospital (who knows if she will even leave the hospital!)
