"Singing for joy at the works of God's hands" Psalm 92:4

As I sit here typing, I'm listening to the sweetest little coos coming from our little darling :)  What precious moments lie ahead for our family!   So, the beginning.  I woke up around 2:10am February 20 to some light contractions, though I wasn't completely sure of what I was feeling because I had never felt them before!  I had experienced some beginning stages of labor the day before, but for some reason didn't think too much of it.  I tried to go back to sleep, and then noticed they were coming pretty regularly, and began to time them.  It seems they were...

I think I might need a matching pair In other news, I have my weekly doctor appointment tomorrow morning.  I'm almost positive nothing has happened yet, as I have felt absolutely nothing this past week.  Some days, I even forget I'm pregnant.  Strange, I know.  I did however, go to the lactation store at Rex and they were having an amazing sale: 60% off some bras, and all clothing- which includes sleepwear, so I picked up some "Majamas" and...
