March 1st, 2011

It's official! On March 1st, both Mark and I will become parents for the second time. That is if she doesn't make an earlier appearance. ;)

We will be arriving at the hospital the night before shortly before midnight. Soon after that they will start pitocin. I'm already 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced, so nothing else is needed. Mark will be there the whole time and my sister will be arriving that morning. Both will have their phones, but Melissa may be the better one to call if you need updates or help.

Elizabeth will be with her Grammy and Pop the night before on. She is more excited about this than her baby sister arriving. Ha, ha.

Not only will this baby share a birthday with another member of my family (hope you don't mind, Alex), but she'll be arriving two days after her daddy's birthday and 14 days before the start of the most wonderful time of the year. If you have to ask what, then you probably won't be filling out a bracket yourself. ;) I can tell you both of my girls will be rooting for the best team in blue. Let's go CATS!

Oh! How wonderful! We'll be sending happy thoughts & prayers your way...

(Also, a few weeks/months? ago, you mentioned you had some baby food recipes to share? I'll gladly accept any advice/recipes you're willing to share... and if you know anything about cloth diapering, I'd love to hear about that, too!)

Thank you both! Also Jen I will send you all my typed up recipes and the name of my favorite baby food cookbook. I would type up more, but have loaned it out until we hit the six month mark for baby #2.

As for cloth diapering, I will tell you what I know and point you to some great sites, but I'll be honest we didn't cloth with Elizabeth because of daycare (they deem it unsanitary with other kids around). So all my knowledge is preliminary. I can point you to some of my friends who have if you like. Talk soon!

Thanks, Brandy! Elizabeth's delivery was pretty smooth so I'm walking in with a good attitude. Plus it means I finally won't be pregnant anymore...and that deserves a big yay!!
