This may be the day...

Okay, so today may be the day of Baby Coker girl #2, I was up all night. I couldn't sleep at first, then around 3 started having contractions, consistent this time. Ten minutes apart, not too painful, this is a very slow start, not a good sign for someone trying for a VBAC. It is now almost 8 am here and they are about 7-8 minutes apart and not lasting long. So already one night no sleep, this is reminiscent of Sophia....ut oh. We will leave in just a little bit to go in, as the doc said to come in when they are this far apart. Can't do the 36 hour labor again, so we will see and keep you posted....
MEANWHILE....
Poppy and CC arrived after a tumultuous time getting to the west coast to catch their international flight (they RAN to the plane), their bags came 2 days later....
We have had a wonderful time hanging out, showing them around, and watching them enjoy Sophia.
Here are some recent pics:

reading the paper over her cereal, just like Mommy was doing. This paper had a picture of an elephant with an 'owie,' two broken legs, so she enjoyed talking about it.

all smiles with Poppy and CC around...precious pic

Poppy and CC took us to Ocean World...

scared of the boat...glass bottom to see all the fishies, she got over it quick and took it all in.

the boat was all she talked about for quite a while


the snake, still unphased even by touching it. no sweat.

lots of sharks, which she kept calling dolphins


June 14, our date night. the last one ended in a cancellation and DAvid in the CCU. This was the first time someone other than us has put Sophia down in over a year. I was worried. She didn't look back, and didn't even ask about us. We were sad and glad (I am starting to sound like Dr. Seuss).

Sophia's great great Aunt Martha Lou gave her this new dress with scarf, too adorable. And she is a ham for the camera.
