9 Months!!
Finn has now been out of my belly as long as he was in it. (At least that's what we'll pretend) I cannot believe how the time has flown! He is such a big boy now. Crawling, standing, squeeling, pulling things off shelves, clapping, smiling, giggling and overall bringing joy and craziness to my life every day. Oh how i love this little man!

I thought that this would be an appropriate time to finally post Finn's birth story.
My pregnancy was a nightmare. I think mom cursed me by naming me after Grandma Ellen because she too was sick the whole 9 months. But he was so worth the wait, even the 11 extra days. Jason was wonderful through the whole thing. From the day i got sick he babied me and waited on me hand and foot. (Actually he has kinda done that since the day we started dating) He is the most patient and loving dad and husband. I REALLY picked a good one.
Finn was due November 22nd. I just wanted him here by Thanksgiving on the 27th. On the 28th we played volleyball for 3 1/2 hours. Nothing. December 2nd, 11 am we went in for a non-stress test. Miracle of miracles they decide to induce me! They told us we could go home and get our stuff and come back. It was already in the car. "wishful thinking" i told them. They checked me in right away. I was not the least bit dilated or effaced. Because of that they had to give Amezo tablets to get things rolling. 5ish pm mom and Meagan came to the hospital.
Oh how i love him. As miserable as my pregnancy was, i knew immediately that i would do it again. And i will. But luckily i have an excuse to wait for a while since the maternity clothes will be in use in Washington....
So there it finally is. Sorry for the novel guys and i'm sorry that there isn't a single picture of Jason, Finn and I all together in the hospital! Lame.
