Okay, we got up this am about 5, brushed our teeth and hair and headed to the hospital for what we thought would be one of those amazing days we would never forget..mentioning along the way that when we made the trip back home it would be with a little baby girl in backseat. Well, we won't forget it alright, but not because it has been amazing. Apparently when a low pressure system moves in like the one headed our way that's going to bring bad weather tonight, women seem to go into labor. Well, that's great and all...if you are one of THOSE women! But Meghan is not. We were there for a scheduled induction. But because so many natural labors were happening, they were short staffed (at least that's what we are guessing) and asked us to go home and return Wednesday. Oh boy...2 more days! Meghan was a little upset, but I must say she has taken it very well...better than I think I would have if I were in her shoes. We quickly left the hospital for some bittersweet breakfast. I guess that means we have 2 more days to prepare. But we really don't need to prepare anymore...we just want to meet little LANIE!!! It's all in God's Hands though and for whatever reason, she isn't here today. His timining is perfect...but I must say He has a sense of humor that I don't always get. But it won't be much longer.
The tough part was for the boys. We had to go get them from grandmama's house on the one day they were hoping to get to miss school "'cause they were having a baby sister." Well, they were a little dissappointed when their mom and dad showed up to pull them away from playing games in their jammies with grandmama so they could dressed and go check in to school! Total bummer for them! We figured if we hurried, we could get them there in-time to not get counted absent for the whole day! Ah, the joys of being the child of a public educator!!!

Soooooooo sorry! Good thing Meghan's a better person than me or there might have been a news story about some crazy pregnant lady. Will continue to pray and THINK PINK!
