Who knew I could actually deliver a baby BEFORE it's due date! But thank goodness I did!
More to come soon as I have commands to stay in bed for the next 5 days.

Yeah baby girl!
And you better stay in bed...remember the 3 things you're allowed to do
1. go potty
2. eat food (in bed after it's been brought to you)
3. nurse
(oh and 4. go on the internet)
so so so proud of you Marianne! She is simply beautiful...and selfishly I am so very excited for my girls to have another little lady in the mix to play with. Indy ran around all morning today yelling "Penelope Penelope" in a sing song voice. She kept asking if you were going to come over and bring her with you...hopefully we will come to you soon and meet this little (or not so little;) wonder!
and yes, stay in bed. rest. enjoy!
What?! Oh, my, amazing!!
She's beautiful. Hallelujah!
Congrats! I knew it! I knew it! She is lovely. What a beautiful girl. I guess I was a few pounds off, though, huh.
xoxoxoxoxoxo!
Oh so happy for you!!
Meg - Today I did venture to add "shower!" to that list, but it was midwife approved.
and 5 - have friends visit in bed.
Summer - Thank you friend! I am so glad that Indy is already excited about Penelope. I can't wait for them all to meet face to face. Penny will need some lovely "older women" for role models =)
Deanna - I know, it was quite unexpected for us too!
Leah - I think everyone's guesses were a few pounds off =)
Sarah - Thank you!!
girls are great! she's a real cutie. congrats to your whole family!
Thanks Tucker! Andrew is pretty excited about the father-daughter dynamic. Hopefully we can introduce her soon.
hooray for a shower, and we were happy to be a part of the friends visiting on the bed. Andy holding Penelope was too adorable.
p.s. I loved Andrew's 'experienced Dad hold'
Meg - I LOVED seeing Andy with Penelope. It made me realize how excited he is about YOU having a baby. So fun. Andrew can give Andy some pointers between now and then on that "experienced Dad hold" =)
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! She is BEAUTIFUL!!!!
And I LOVE the name Penelope! It's one of my favorites!!!
Thank you Daja! We are quite smitted with her.
