I guess this is really happening

I'm now hooked up to many machines, and am hours from welcoming this little lady to the world. Just thought I'd keep everyone up to speed.

I started having contractions at 8:30 this morning, by 3 p.m. I was checked in to the hospital and was getting an epidural. I'm now just playing the waiting game. Unfortunately, we can't find the cord to our camera, so it may be a day or two until we post pictures... but they are coming. I'll post again later tonight or tomorrow morning with more details.

For the record, Shiloh thinks I'm crazy for blogging right now.

And tell Shiloh you can do whatever the heck you want while in labor! The waiting can get sooo boring!

You're KILLING me with the lack of photos! Get on that cord search pronto! Even though you're in the middle of healing your body from a hospital bed, taking care of a newborn for the first time ever, and just surviving a move into your first home of your own. Seriously. :) Oh how we'd love to see little Harper, she's got to be darling as ever. So glad you made it and you're well!! We hope to see you all soon!
