Getting into a routine
It's not a real routine because we still will need to manage when the grandparents leave...and we move into the new house...and daycare is over...
But it's a routine. Eat, play, sleep. Every 4 hours or so. My job is early morning, which was my favorite time with Anna, and again with Sarah. Get up around 4:00am, give a bottle, take the dog and baby around the block, then lie on the couch with the baby on my chest and half-watch some dumb TV. There is especially dumb TV at 4:30am. With Anna it was Sliders. This morning, I learned that The Sci-Fi Channel runs two consecutive Twilight Zone episodes at 5:00am. Score!

We're home: Pictures
We're home and happy. Our first night was pretty easy; we even managed some sleep.
Here are some pictures to tide you over...

Evelyn Irene Stansfield
Born 12:30am on 4/25/08
She was 7 pounds, 11 ounces and very healthy.
She has dark blue eyes, very long toes, and loves her mom. She even managed to get some sleep on her first morning.
Mom is doing very well, and is being attended by her parents, her husband, and two very excited little girls.

At the hospital
All set to go! Steph's all hooked up and in bed. She's even kind of sleeping.
The girls are with Bobonne and Grandpa Chuck. They'll probably be big sisters tomorrow.
All is well.

Labor!
We are officially in labor.
We'll go to the hospital in an hour or so. But first, we've learned through experience that one should eat...
Baby, baby, here we come...

Doctor appointment today
This afternoon we will have more information! Details to come...
In the meantime, enjoy the new pink-ified site design. Complete with Sarah celebrating her 3rd birthday. One might call it Pinkalicious (the girls' new favorite book)!

Anna is having fun
Here's Anna:
(Translation: "Anna. Mom. Anna S. [I love] to make up nam[e]s for dhe baby.)
Excellent use of ellipses, I say!

We're waiting
The due date has come and gone. It's just a matter of time.
We have a minivan now. The bag for the hospital is packed and sitting in the car. Bobonne is here, and that is a huge help. Grandpa Chuck is coming soon, after his visit with relatives in the Pacific Northwest.
The girls are practically jumping out of their skin. They keep coming up with baby names to add to the list, which is already pretty long.
Feel free to suggest names in the comments...
