We are at the hospital! :)

Although we arrived to the hospital at our scheduled 7:00 induction time, we were told upon arrival, we would need to wait a few hours for induction because the labor and delivery unit was extremely busy. While at first a let down, it did give us time to settle in and relax a bit. Mom and Dad, Emily and Tony came to help pass the time. Finally, at 11:00, the first round of Cytotec was administered, and again just 30 minutes ago. Contractions have increased in intensity and frequency, so hopefully that means my body is gearing up to bring little Lana into the world sooner today, rather than later. ;) Luke is sound asleep on a cot half his size. Poor guy. He has, of course, just been so wonderful. We will be sure to post as soon as we can when Lana Grace arrives. :)

Yes, they positioned themselves all on their own.  They're liking the new camera (and the attention).

When is she coming, Mom?

Welcome to Baby Lana's Blogspot! :-)

Lana Grace is due March 8th, 2012, and the countdown for her arrival is on!  Luke and I are so excited to meet her, we can hardly stand it.  We've been going on some long walks and eating a whole lot of Mexican food thinking we could outsmart her.  Turns out, with 17 days until her due date left, she is pretty comfortable where she is for now.  Our bags are packed, and Shelby and Gracie have thoroughly sniffed out every square inch of anything belonging to Lana from her crib, to her clothes, to her carseat.  I think they're ready for a new little sister... whether they realize it or not. ;-)
