the beginning. . (maybe)

After one of the worst sleepless nights of my pregnancy, contractions began around 3 a.m. I didn't get lots of sleep after that, either. They were pretty strong last night, but have petered out in intensity today. BUT, unlike w/ my 1st pregnancy where I labored one night & then stopped during the day & then started again in the middle of the next night -- I'm continuing to have contractions. . .so. . we'll see.

Kate has been talking to baby a lot -- today she was trying to ask her to come today. . but instead said, "Please come to the hospital with us!"
