We came home and are all happy, except in the middle of the night. Madeline was anxiously awaiting "baby sister" on the stairs. Michael & Kelly Pratt happened to pass by, so they saw everything live. Grandma Pratt was home taking care of the girls.

Welcome Home Rachel

Baby Guess Challenge Results
And now the survey results you've all been waiting for . . .
RESULTS
Out of the 106 respondents to the Baby Guess Challenge, only 4 succeeded in guessing Rachel's birthday. Rachel Mae was born July 23 at 5:45 PM.
I realize that those that guessed after July 23rd might be complaining that the baby was induced and therefore throw off the natural results, well Jen says and I quote, "Boo-Hoo" to them.

The four winners of the Baby Guess Challenge are below.

Well, it all started at 6:00 AM, when the doctor wanted to induce the baby. We sat in the hospital most the day, it was actually quite boring. Then at about 4:ooish the pain started and kept getting stronger for Jen. We did have a jacuzzi, which was nice. Well, back in bed, the labor pains kept getting stronger and Jen delivered the baby so fast that the doctor wasn't even there. So the nurse,
Carrie Peterson, delivered the baby by herself. Jen did it natural, without a epidural,
and she doesn't know if she wants to do that again.Well, The baby is healthy and weighed in at 6 lbs 4 oz. Her name is Rachel Pratt, and we've not finalized with the middle name yet. But we are very happy for the new arrival and thank God that everything went alright.

Just Hangin' Out
Well still no baby... I am going to be induced on Monday at 6:00 am if I haven't had her by then. Hopefully I'll go into labor on my own though. In the meantime we've just been hanging out having fun reading books and looking cute :) Madeline loves anything to do with winnie the pooh. She gets her stuffed animals first thing in the morning and brings them to my bed.
