13.5 hrs

Well, in about 13.5 hrs, we will be beginning our journey to meet our newest family member, Annabelle Grace Horton. We are set to arrive around 5 am at the hospital, check in, begin meds, and hopefully have a quick and easy delivery. I, personally, am ready to go right now.

Spencer is so cute about his new sister. He can say her whole name and loves to talk about her, give her kisses, and when you ask him what he is going to do with her, he says, "be nice." I have told him that we are going to the hospital to get her, and he seems ok with that. I have shown him pictures of us at the hospital with him, and he seems ok with that. I don't know excatly what he is expecting, but hopefully he will accept her fairly easily (for a 2 yr old who is being taken away from his mommy's full attention).

I have spent the last couple of weeks pretty uncomfortable-much different than Spencer and am already progressed much further than I was with Spencer-before he broke my water, so needless to say, I am pretty much ready for tomorrow to come.

It is fun to try to imagine how she will be the same/different than Spencer. The pregnancy has been different, for sure, and of course, there are the basic differences between boys and girls, but I kind of think she will have quite a different personality as well. I imagine her as being a lot like her Mommy, fun but quiet, a little more serious. I also imagine her being a little more girly than mommy is, but not overly "princess-y." It will be fun to see if she lives up to this, or is a complete tomboy!

So, hopefully, it won't be forever before I post again, and I will have some lovely pictures of our little family of 4!

We covet your prayers tomorrow as it is always scary to go into the hospital and you just never know.
