bean sprouts


jeff took a picture of me last thursday, since i was finally full-term. but when we went into the doctor on monday, they said i was only partly effaced and not really dialated, so we probably wouldn't have the baby in the next couple of days. i woke up early tuesday morning having contractions.

this was the scene by tuesday evening. we finally got to meet our baby! her name is paige.

they kept us the hospital for two days to make sure everything was going well. overall, it was the best hospital stay i've had. we had room service, the nurses were great, my roommates were awesome, and i was no longer pregnant.
this is one of my favorite pictures so far. we make a good set.

all three of us are still trying to figure out what is going on, especially paige. sometimes she doesn't quite know what to think. sometimes she thinks we're pretty weird. we are.





we talk a lot though, when paige is awake. we've had a couple good long discussions. they're mostly one-sided, but you can tell she'll contribute a little more when she can.

mostly though, she's just a cutie. jeff and i decided we like our new roommate. we'll keep her.

  7. Congratulations, guys. She is beautiful! I hope I'll get to see her before you head off to England. Hey, I wonder if she will speak with a British accent when she starts talking?

  8. Hopefully when you're talking with her, you take time to discuss financial responsibilities and the fact that you expect her to start pulling her own weight here pretty soon. This life isn't all about sleeping and burping, after all.
