yahoo!!



the long awaited day (or night) is finally here. i had my last doc appt today, and they finally agreed to induce me!! it is a bit ridiculous that we have to do this, but hey. i am on the list for first thing tomorrow morning, 7am to be exact. so if i don't end up going in sometime tonight, that is the plan. poor nate is going to get up at 3 for work, then come home and take me to the hospital at 630. doesn't that sound fun? although, i had my membranes stripped for the 3rd time, and it seems to be more effective so far. a lot more painful contractions, at 6 minutes apart for the last couple of hours. so we'll see. but most likely, this little darling will be born tomorrow, june 10th. sounds like a good date for a birthday, right? i have been waiting for so long, i am having a hard time believing this is actually going to happen. there is a light at the end of the tunnel!! hallelujah!! we'll get on here sometime in the next few days with the whole scoop, and pics of the little darling. wish us luck!! and i threw in a picture of just how huge i am, just for good measure. enjoy!

I can't wait to see Rachel! (still the name right?) Good luck with the labor. Maybe you will have a baby during the day!!! Hopefully not the middle of the night.

Wow, you are...large, I can tell you that cause I am family. Good luck Marne and we love you and are so excited for this little one to get here. a little ironic that you have to be induced but life never goes as planned.

Oh how exciting!!! I am glad she is going to arrive soon but then you both will be sleep deprived. I am sure she will be a sweety!
We hope to get down there in the fall maybe we can plan a playdate! Take care remember naps are good for anyone at any age!

I comin' over to wreck your house with my kids while you are in labor. Doesn't that sound fun? It was Monica's idea... yeah, I'll blame her. I talked to her last night when she was on her way to you house to watch the kids. Good Luck and we'll see you soon!

Yeah. Good luck with everything, though I'm a little late probably. I do hope everything goes or went well though.
