Good luck! I can't wait for the stories!
I cannot believe it's here! Oh my GOODNESS! I am so excited-for gawdsake you'd think they were mine! I cannot WAIT to see pictures and hear all the news. I'll send an extra positive thought out there when I look at the moon tonight. Lucky, lucky, four of you!
Good luck- I've been gone a few days and you posted 6 posts- I guess the nesting instinct kicked in. Hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow- can't wait to see pictures.
