Congrats, and get as much sleep as you can before you bring her home. Get a shotgun and start practicing looking mean - you have about 15 years to master it. Wife and I raised 2 girls. Sleep comes after they move out.

Fixed it?

Congats! Daughter number 2 was born there about 10 months ago. Good place, although we were ready to get home. Nothing worse than a 2 am BP/temp check. Funny enough, daughter number 1 was born in a St. Francis hospital too - in the Seattle/Tacoma area.... We're around the corner from the hospital if you need something brought in. Hope momma and baby are doing well- S2

That's what happens when you feed them.

Cherish the moments. Time Flies with children. I have a 16 year old who I had to drive to the store to buy flowers. he is asking a girl to homecomming.

my other sone turns 11 this month, and our daughter is already 3 and a half. What will I do when she grows up?

Congrats and enjoy.

Time sure does fly, my oldest started 1st grade last month and it still doesn't seem possible he is that old already. Savor every moment, they go by real fast.

She is a beautiful little girl. I remember the 5-8 month phase, they are doing something new everyday and it is so much fun. I would take all of the diaper laundry in the world if there were some way to keep them in that phase a little longer (like another year).

My son will be 2 in 21 days; daughter will be 3 29 days later. They grow up way too fast and it just isn't fair...

My youngest just turned 6 and started 1st grade. Next up just turned 10. My eldest will be turning 23 this year. My daughter just started her senior year and will be turning 18 in December. My youngest grandchild is 2 months. I feel old...sometimes. Time does fly, enjoy it while you can. Of course being able to autocross with them is a lot of fun too. Having the whole crowd buried under the hood of a car is priceless.
