We got to the hospital this morning at 7:30 to be induced. I'm all hooked up to the Pitocin, so now we're just waiting.
I've been having regular contractions already...but I have a feeling it's going to take a while.
Jared has his peanut M & M's, so he's good.
Last night I didn't sleep too well...it was like Christmas Eve times a thousand. We're so excited to see this little lady! She's so loved already.
Lately I've been having the fears I think all 2nd time moms have: That Gracie will feel less loved. I know that it's normal to feel that way and that really we're giving her a little best friend, but it's still hard to think of your child feeling that way. I rocked her a little longer last night and got a little bit teary thinking about it. She really has no idea what's going to happen today, and I'm not so sure she'll be ok with it. I'll miss the one on one time we've had, but am so excited for our little family to grow.
Family of four, here we come! We can't wait!
We'll update as soon as something happens. :)

Good luck Abby girl! You will do great! You just said to a "T" how I feel about having another girl. Gracie will still know that you love her like crazy. Can't wait to see your new addition.
I've been thinking about you all day. Hope everything goes well!
I just went through those same emotions before Asher was born. The night before I was induced, I snuggled with Kenley a little longer than usual...
<3 you and your little family... Please let us know if you need anything, and I really would like to come visit for an afternoon in the next week or two, if that'd be okay.
And, Welcome to the World, Lucy!
Wha?
Nothing yet?!
Man, I need a bag of peanut M&Ms too, the suspense is killing me!
But to be honest I don't know how in the heck you made it this far without having her sooner...all the moving, painting, renovating, traveling, and moving again, I am so shocked she didn't come earlier!
Had the same feelings about my oldest when I went to have number 2, its sad.
I must be an emotional pregnant woman or something, but this post brought me to tears. I guess I have two months to snuggle a little longer with mine before number 2 comes along. I too will miss the one on one time and worry the same things. Good luck to you and to Gracie during this adjustment! I am sure she'll do just great.
