We're Here!!

Here we are sitting at the hospital. I went home after work today and wondered if my water had broken(I wasn't really sure). I called the expert, Kara, and she said go to the hospital. So we were admitted between 7-7:30, they confirmed that yes my water did break. I am still not having any contractions, so we are waiting to see if anything will happen, and if not they will start to induce me with pictocin tonight. Right now I feel pretty good, and both the baby and I are doing great. We will update again later as things progress. Keep praying!!

I am sitting here clapping by myself. Such a dork.

ANyway, I am so excited I can hardly stand it. I think I just had a contraction waiting for you to have one. Come on little Bennett, it's time to exit now, mommy would like to paint her own toenails again.

Best of luck. Of course we left the hospital at 6:00 p.m. Darn I thought you and Dave would be up there at the same time :( We will be praying to and hoping to see the new little one soon.

Kara said...

Hello, over a week ago I asked you to be my "friend" on facebook. Get with it lady!

Amanda Irene said...

I just got on there a week ago and i just long on to see what it was. Are you blogging on there? I really don't know what its all about at all.

Amanda Irene said...

I think now is a good time to say our weight guesses again.

Mine was 8lbs 1oz.

TraceyLD said...

I'm quessing. I missed the first round of quesses due to not blogging.

My guess is 7# 14 oz 20" long

chris k said...

I'm still saying it's the 9-10 lb'er. Kara cannot change her guess again. She cheats!

Amanda Irene said...

can you give a more specific number than 9 or ten pounds. Just b/c there maybe be several guesses around 9 pounds. Tee hee

Travis,Stephanie, Olivia & Alex said...

9 lbs. 2 oz. :)
thats my guess

The Speer's said...

I guess 8lbs 1oz. Hope all is going well.

Amanda Irene said...

Becky I said 8lbs and 1 oz!

Well she must have had her b/c its been 24hrs now!!!

The Speer's said...

Sorry fine I'll say 8lbs 2ozs.

Kara said...

I am sticking with my second guess of 8lbs 6 oz. And if I win I will give the prize to Chris Kline. Because I am nice like that.

Amanda Irene said...

theres a prize SWEET!!

Kara said...

Becky Speer will receive a freshly baked prize... probably cookies because they are easy. Will you be at church Sunday, Becky?

Amanda Irene said...

MMmmmm Freshly baked! Enjoy becky! I would have guessed less had I guessed back whe she had her shower. It so hard to say.
