Well, here she is. Our baby girl is taking some time out from growing inside my uterus to suck her thumb. She has no idea how much joy that brings us to see. Right now we are experiencing the calm before the storm. The nursery is finished, the guest room is ready and we are two and a half weeks away from meeting our first child. Now, does that mean Ryan's list of things to do is complete. No, as a matter of fact, I believe he is standing on a ladder in our entryway trying not to electrocute himself while installing a hall light. Toby, our other "baby" (an 85 pound lab) is trying to sneak past me into the baby's room so he can capture and destroy yet another stuffed animal. We gave him a Barney doll to love and protect and he decapitated it within a few days. Now that we are so close to meeting our baby it disturbs me that we've taught Toby to go and fetch his baby doll on command. Maybe we need to come up with some other way of referring to the baby. My brother suggests calling her Thor.

Isn't there a nice "farm" somewhere in Massachusetts where Toby can go to live for a "few" (until none of my grandchildren are in your home) years?
Just asking. Nana
PS Still think Liza is a good name.
I love that you have a blog. You better keep it up!
What a beautiful baby, I am so excited to meet her, and teach her how to be a cheerleader. (Not that you can't do that without me.)
Love you guys.
