So we are finally home. Things are going well- I am tired, sore, and swollen- but I can feel that I am starting on the recovery. The labor was great- I was very lucky. Let's just say I am a fan of epidurals. We are so grateful to have my mom here to help. And Brad is already an amazing dad- he just can't let her be put down. She is always sleeping on his chest. Maggie is totally worth everything!!!!

No Pictures
So, it has been a very long time since I have posted anything. I blame this on our lack of a camera. We have a video camera that takes still shots- so we will be able to take pics of the baby, but it is just not as portable as a little digital camera. I am hoping Santa gets me one for Christmas.....
So, the last couple of months have been good. Since the last post, we have had quite a few visitors. My parents and my sister Stephanie came out for Baby Sofia's blessing. It is so fun to live close to family- you get double the visitors! Then the week after that, Brad's parents stopped by for a few days on their way home from their mission in Ukraine. It was really cool to see them- but how weird is it that my in-laws were out of the country for a year and a half- we were only married 3 1/2 months when they left!
Brad's friend Grant and his wife and son came to the Ernst & Young training that took place in St. Charles, IL- which is 13 miles from us! Jennie had gotten tickets to Oprah so she was super excited to come. However, Oprah cancelled on us two days before. But it was still fun to hang out with them and play games every night. We will miss them when they are in India!
We spent all day Halloween (9-5) in a birthing class. It actually went by pretty fast. Let's just say, after this class I am a little freaked out. Can I really do this? I have to, I guess. We are excited, but I find it hard imagining what it will all be like. I just can't believe it.
Last week, I had an emergency root canal, which is always fun. I have the worst teeth. And then a guy at work came to work with the swine flu and passed it to me. Thanks a lot.... So, I went to the doctor and was bed-ridden for about 5 days. I even missed the Primary Program- I am the Primary Pianist so that is may one big thing I work for every year and I had to call a sub last minute. But, alas, I am better now and have passed the sickness to my husband.
So now, I don't have much planned except for this baby. 3 weeks- 4 max. The doctor said he would induce my on the 9th if she hasn't come yet. So, now my days consist of going to work and putting my feet up. I feel so huge- I can't bend over without holding my breath. I have also been trying to get a few things ready- washing clothes, packing the hospital bag. It just doesn't feel real. But I'm sure it will very soon......
