Catching up ...

It's been a long time since I last posted and needless to say a lot has happened. I want to capture all the memories from the last two months so I'm going to work on catching up. Starting with a few weeks prior to Mikayla's arrival ... and the false alarm.

I was so worried about having to take Christopher with us to the hospital that I packed a Diego backpack full of snacks, new toys, new books and his portable DVD player with a new movie. It came in handy as I had a false alarm about 3 weeks prior to Mikayla's arrival.

Having a false alarm was always one of my biggest fears, especially since this is my second pregnancy. But, it did not help that each time I saw my doctor she kept telling me that this baby would be here early. Nothing like getting a 9 month, pregnant woman anxious. Especially, one like me. Christopher was great at the hospital and his backpack became a staple for each visit to the hospital once Mikayla arrived. He still loves his backpack today. One of my best investments to date.
