New diapers

Our diapers came in the mail! Yay and I'm already in love with them. Wren hasn't fussed about a dirty diaper since. I have to make sure I check it more often because she won't even let me know though.

Come on baby!

Well strike number 2! I started having contractions again on friday night around 11:30pm. I didn't want to wake Lane so I stayed awake and started timing them. They were getting closer together and stronger that I finally couldn't just lay there, I got up and did some laundry around 2:30am which woke Lane up. At this point they were lasting 40-50 seconds and 3-4minutes apart. All the books say you should be headed to the hospital when they are 5 minutes apart! Yikes! So we scrambled, packed our bags and headed to the hospital. The nurse checked me and I was 2cm dilated and the contractions were getting even stronger as we were there. I have to be honest, at this point I started freaking out and thinking I wouldn't be able to make it if this is what 2cm's felt like. The nurse consulted with the doctor only to come back in the room and say that she was sending me home but I could have morphine if I wanted it (I declined. As much as I was starting to feel anxious about the pain, it made her seem so close and it made me feel alive and excited). We went home kind of disappointed but with hope that it was probably close. It's now Monday late afternoon and no progress!!! I'm having contractions still but now they slowed to 10 minutes or more apart with lots of quick sharp pains. I feel so teased by all of this and definitely frustrated as I get more and more uncomfortable.
Anyways.....maybe third time is a charm :P Here are some pictures we took quick right before we went to the hospital so we could remember the belly at its biggest.



And any advice on how to get things moving even if they seem silly would be great.
