Early Labor Struggles: My Baby Update & 35 Week Belly Pic

In summary, Gil is in early labor but still having regular contractions and is waiting for something to push her to leave or stay in the UK. She is worried about her health and the health of her baby.

Who is taking care of her other child?
Would they be staying at the house?
Ok, sorry for being impatient I leave in 3 hours for our cruise!!
We will be celebrating our 20th anniversary while we are in Jamaica. Time flies! Wow! I was so young & SKINNY then.
Our kids are decorating our cabin and had a reprint made of our wedding portrait (I'll act surprised I saw the stuff in DD suitcase when I was adding something) Needless to say, I didn't pack a bikini this time I am taking tankini's with lots of coverage and instead of a cute wrap that ties at my waist I'll wear a coverup to my knees !! :)

Hello Ladies! I am so sorry that you weren't updated. My sister is a member here at CS and I asked her to post the news. She must have forgotten or something happened. I didn't mean for you guys to worry!

Here is the good stuff:
Baylor McKinley Wright

We are both happy and healthy- I am very tired and sore from the tubal! I will post pics ASAP but knew something was wrong with my sis announcing because I had lots of calls and e-mail from concerned cheffers! Everything is okay, I am home now, and thank you ladies for caring. I will update soon!

That is what I thought!!. We already had a 12 and 13 year old in a 3 bedroom house. Then I got pregnant again and now I have a 17 year old boy, 15 1/2 year old boy, and a 3 1/2 year old girl :rolleyes: . I got pregnant with the youngest while on birth control and NO I didn't miss any pills. :rolleyes:

She still sleeps in our room and has clothes and toys in every room and in any spot not considered a room!! I agree, what a mess it makes. But I wouldn't trade her in for the world.

Now for the teenage boys....... I 'might' consider....... nah, wouldn't trade them either. ;)
