You see this baby? She is so cute! If you notice, she's cutting teeth, all at her own time since she's almost 2, but it seems like all at the same time. Her top right central incisor came in June 23 while her top left took an extra week and cut through Tuesday. However, she woke up screaming not too long ago telling me her teeth hurt because her top 1st molars just started cutting through now, AT THE SAME TIME. Poor kid. Thank goodness she can tell me these things, though.

So since I'm up, for more reasons than just Iris screaming, I decided to update. Now I've been having BH contractions for a while. Sunday the got so bad that everyone at church panicked, mostly Liz. So just to be on the safe side I went to the clinic where they confirmed what I already knew--I was indeed contracting, but I wasn't in labor. So after being monitored for a while they gave me some hardcore vicodin and sent me on my merry way. This little one is beating the crap out of me from the inside out. I seriously have bruises from her. *sigh*

I went to the OB today (or yesterday, actually) and all seems to be in order. I'm having normal pain, which is good. No pain whatsoever near my cesarean scar. :) My cervix hasn't dropped, but it has softened, and I'm only 1 cm dilated. Not closed, but not really open, either. Right now it's just a waiting game. Rose has been in vertex (head down) position for a while now and has begun to snuggle into my pelvis, so everyone is getting ready. :)

Other than being in a lot of pain everything and everyone is/are good. Lily is excited about having a new baby sister and Iris couldn't care less. LOL. I know I'm anxious and want her to hurry up, I can't wait to see her, and Justin is so calm about the whole thing I really don't know how he's feeling.
