My family has many adventures, big and small. I'll admit that most of them are small, but I do love to tell a good story...

Apparently Lila is having a growth spurt.This outfit was so short on her that we had to let her feet hang out the bottom. :)

hey erin, i know that well-meaning people seem to inundate you with horror stories, but i just wanted to give you a good story: mine. i was also induced and everything went very, very well. it was smooth and honestly not as painful as i had envisioned. i know that's not everybody's experience, but for every 30 hour labor, there's a 3 hour labor (like me). it is a unique and wonderful experience, but i was so scared b/c nobody could do this for me. it was me and God and i just felt so alone and vulnerable. one verse that was a great comfort was isaiah 4.13 "For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you." my iv was in my left hand so i felt like my right hand was free for God to take hold of and he really did help me through. and it's true that once you have that precious baby in your arms then whatever kind of labor you had it's all completely worth it! love, ellen
