Well, Travace Dane Parker will be here within the next two weeks. Christi is having serious Braxton-Hicks contractions. If she doesn't go into labor on her own, the C-section is scheduled for the 27th.
I have such mixed feelings about this one. I can't help but be a little excited about a new baby, it's in my genes, but, on the other hand I kind of dread having another tiny baby around. I know just how tired and worn out Christi and Levi are going to be and I'm afraid of how Zoe will react. I mean, she is only 18 months old and is fixing to be replaced as the baby. SHE IS STILL A BABY and now she has to be Big Sister.. kind of sucks for her.
But, I also know that the minute I lay eyes on the little guy I am going to be in love all over again, especially if he looks like Levi did when he was a baby.
I'll keep you all up-to-speed with how this plays out.
It is cool and rainy here today, cool enough that I lit the heater in my office and it feels gooood.
Mark is working at a church in Ada this morning, Seth has gone to church at another church in Ada, Ms. Em is sleeping, and I was up way too early. My girl was sick all day yesterday. She complained of stomach cramps, she ate almost nothing and just kept going back to bed. At 10:30 last night she turned off her TV and lights and crawled into bed, that's about 4 hours earlier than normal for her and she is still asleep (10:30am Sunday) I just hope she feels better when she wakes up.
Levi was wanting to make a new recipe tonight but I'm not sure if anyone is going to feel like it.
I have Avatar to watch this afternoon when Mark gets home, so, I'm thinking it is a lay on the sofa all day kind of day.
I love you guys, you are a group of amazing women and having kids or not having kids isn't why... I love you because of WHO YOU ARE!!

He will be beautiful, and even though there's a ton of work ahead every day will have some fun new thing.
I hope Em feels better!

I was 19 months when I became a big sister, and after about 10 minutes of pouting, Darren became MY baby. It sounds strange, but having Alyssa made me love Darren even more because she looked like him to me and it reminded of my "first" baby. :) I know it will be the same for you--falling in love again.
