First Bath!

She's not a water baby (yet!)

Going Home!!

We were so happy to leave the hospital and get home to our own bed! Lauren is a little hard to see in her carrier - she blended in :)

Daddy trying to buckle her up!

Is that not the cutest -- if you're getting ready to have a baby you have to get one of these carrier covers from Christine at SmallSpouts.com (they're amazing)

Dad, Lauren, Mom and our nurse (just after our 10 min lesson on how to take care of a newborn)

Welcome home!

So peaceful! Are we supposed to take her out now? ;)

Lauren has arrived!

She's here! 17 hours of labor (none of it was painful!) she's finally here. I want to thank everyone (all 12 of you) that were there for the duration!! Here are some images taken by Brandi Traina of Traina Photography (who showed up at 2:30 am and was there until Lauren arrived the next day at 2:54)

Almost Time!!!

Well....it's April 5th -- 18 days until the induction! Doug and Mary were over for dinner tonight and we ALL think it will be sooner! My belly is BIG - I would post a picture but I'm not sure I would fit in picture :) Mary thinks little Lauren will make her appearance on April 9! Here's why:

Full Pink Moon - April 9, 2009

This full Moon heralded the appearance of the grass pink, or wild ground phlox—one of the first spring flowers. It is also known as the Sprouting Grass Moon, the Egg Moon, and the Fish Moon. Pink...hello....that's a sign, right?

Also, April 9th is my grandmother's birthday. January 9th is my mom's birthday and my birthday is July 9th -- it just makes sense.

Anyway, I'll keep you posted!! Until then wish, hope and pray for her early arrival (please!)

Love,
Kami
