Meeting my family






After 9 long months of waiting to see if Vandy baby would be a boy or a girl, it was time for the big announcement!!! It's a girl!! The awaiting Grandparents couldn't wait to come meet Granddaughter Abby. Good thing they didn't have to wait all night.

Do I have time to grab a cheeseburger...NO!



Vandy baby decided to make her debut during, what else, the Bears vs. Packers playoff game! She wanted to be here to root for her Vandy boy, Jay Cutler. Too bad he couldn't win for her!

My water broke during the second quarter, forcing Daddy to come home and miss the game. After a quick drive to the hospital, we were admitted to labor and delivery. First check, Mommy was 5 cm and given an epidural. As Daddy went to go get a cheeseburger for dinner, Mommy went from 5 to 10 cm. No time to eat! It's game time!! A frantic call was made to the doctor who arrived (barely) just in time. Minutes later, Vandy baby, Abigail Elizabeth was born!!! Whew...Mommy and Daddy barely had time to get settled into the room before the big event.

My first baby shower





Two wonderful family friends hosted my first baby shower at the Racquet Club Ladue in October. We had delicious soup and salad followed by my favorite, petits fours. The guests enjoyed playing baby bingo while I opened my gifts. Thanks for a beautiful day!
