finally more pictures!!!

let me give a little into our birth story...
saturday, 11-5-08 at 12:00 we were having our pregnancy pictures taken--i will try to get some of those posted eventually too--at this wonderful place in Mud Bay. we took crazy pictures of me walking on a tight rope, in trees, mike pushing me in a wheelbarrow, and many more wild picutes. we were there for about 3 hours, had a nice lunch with them, soup and homemade rootbeer. we were on our way home when my friend Kristin called to see if she could stop by and get adjusted, so i told her to meet us at my house. i was sitting on the couch when she arrived and got up to see her and thought, oh my god my water just broke!, or did i just wet myself?...
so i went to the bathroom and then a little more started coming. i called my doula, KC to ask some questions, i called Jessica but she wasn't home, i called my midwife to let her in on the details. i collected some fluid and it definately was not urine. what a relief, i really didn't think i had wet myself. so my midwife, audrey and her student midwife rhonda, stopped by to test it--it was really was amniotic fluid. by this time mike is freaking out. he doesn't want to believe it is really happening--3 weeks early.
okay--i'll pick up on the story later.
here are a few pictures to catch you up with--okay i tried to attach them three times and they keep telling me there is a problem--i'll try in the morning.
