A few things

1. Today Geoff and I went to the doctor for a check-up, and I'm 1cm dilated and 50% effaced - progress from last week!

2. We are so blessed to have childcare in place for when I go back to work part-time. Charlene and Mark are going to watch her 1 day and my mom is going to watch her 2 days. God is so good - what an answer to prayers! And to know that she will be taken care of by people we know and love and that will love her, too is such an awesome thing. Hooray!

3. We have had lots of people ask about visiting preferences - Geoff and I want to see all of you! We really don't have a preference over coming to the hospital or waiting until we are at home, but you should know they have some rules in place through March at the hospital because of the swine flu that may impact your decision. First, we can only have 2 visitors in the room at one time and second, no one under the age of 18 can visit in the hospital (even if they've had the swine flu shot). Regardless, we can't wait for you to meet our baby girl (heck, we can't wait either!).
