Last night I had a dream. In and of itself this is nothing new. I dream all the time. In color. Vivid, real dreams. Last night it was about my best friend. I dreamed that she had her baby, and that I was there.
Finally, after weeks of waiting and waiting, Steph has gone into labor. Only, unlike my dream, I am not there. I got a voicemail from her today that said things were picking up and she was going to be admitted to the hospital. It's difficult to be on the other side of the world while such an important event is going on in her life. What is so funny is that she picks up her cell phone to tell me how things are progressing. I know she's probably the talk of the hospital, because several times that her nurses have come in and she's been on the phone with me, she has told them she was talking to North Africa!
Steph, I love you so much! You are in my thoughts, and I can't wait to see pics.

I'm really hoping she doesn't kill me for
putting this picture on here. Steph, if you hate it,
I'll take it off! Of course, by then everyone will have already seen it anyway.

Bless her heart--I was beginning to wonder...Its so good you can keep consistent contact with her even while she labors. Hang in there Stephanie.
Yay, Steph!!! Keep us updated!
Good luck Steph!
It's 2:46 here and I CAN'T SLEEP! I doze for short amounts of time, dreaming about baby Hudson each time I do! I dream about what he looks like because they've sent me pictures. I just called and talked to her and her body is ready to go! She's passing her cell off to someone else so I can talk to them next time I call. She wants me to sleep, but that just won't happen. Maybe I'll doze some more and dream about that precious baby boy!
(I DREAM that they've sent me pics...obviously, they haven't since she's still working on delivering.)
Oh gosh, this brought tears to my eyes!
HE'S HERE! Born at 11:54 PM and weighing 9 1/2 pounds and 23 inches long!
dang! he was a big ole baby!!! i hope she's okay! :)
Woohoo! Katie and I can relate to that big ole baby! I really think they need to cut down on the quality of prenatal vitamins...babies are too big for their mommies these days! Congrats to Steph!
Wow! Big baby! Can't wait to see pics...
Congratulations Steph!! :)
Glad he's finally here and that you got some sleep. My brother was over 10 lbs when he was born..talk about a big baby. My mom broke her tailbone giving birth. Hope Steph is doing great!!!
I broke my behind giving birth to my 10 pounder...not fun, not fun at all!!!
And Katie is NOT speaking figuratively! Whew! But you know, my 9.5-er just slipped right out, so you never know...
ok, so "little Will" was also a 9.5 pounder, so I do feel her pain, well, sort of, I had the big C..... Anyway, we want some pictures when you get them!
Can you believe we're "aunts" now?!! This is so exciting! I'm so happy for her!
Yeah for baby Hudson! The long wait is over! Congratulations to Stephanie, Colon, & of course, you Shannon!
