Carly's first week!

So many pictures, and I refrained from putting them all up! We are doing well, and slowly adjusting to life with two kids. We've made a few trips out, but they've been short. I don't know what I'm going to do when Matt goes back!

Time for a new camera!

Well, after looking through my picture choices here of what to put on our blog, I can see that A. we didnt' get very good pictures, and B. it is time for a new camera! I had to delete most of the pictures because they were so blurry and dark. I think that we might be making a trip to Costco tonight to pick up a new camera because I'd hate to get bad pictures of miss Carly when she finally gets here...

Carly update:
As of today I am an "easy" 3cm (guess that means 3+) and 75% effaced. All I need is some good contractions and things should be off! I have a non-stress test scheduled for Friday to make sure that I still have plenty of fluid, and that she's doing ok... If I base how she's doing on how much she's moving, I think she's doing great! Holy moly! Sometimes I don't see how she doesn't break my water!!! Then, if we still aren't holding her by Monday, we'll be induced at 7:30... but I don't think we'll make it there! Positive thoughts!!!

Here are our few pictures that actually weren't dark and blurry...

Madeline's dance recital - waiting on my lap for her turn to dance. This was actually hard for her! My shy little girl kept trying to get down while saying, " I want to dance." We had to wait for a few other classes to dance before hers got to.
The hula hop was there for their "solo." :) Madeline just twirled around a bit. :)
Got some flowers from another mommy :)
After the recital: She just wanted to dance some more! We usually dance to music... well every time I turn it on at our house! I can't believe how much she likes to dance!
Showing us her flowers.
