september 11th

not only was yesterday the 7th anniversary of 9/11 it would also be the day that my baby, Olivia, would have been 10 months old. I was quite busy, but my thoughts turned to what she would be doing if she were here, such as, pulling herself up on the furniture, getting into everything and jabbering away.
Since I had the photographer here from the Spokesman Review, I got the chance to go through Olivia's stuff. He wanted to take some photos of her things and I got to reminisce about all the wonderful memories I have of her. I guess it actually started when I had the interview on Tuesday,which I cried through, and then Wednesday night, I was called to go take photos at the hospital, right next to the room where I delivered Olivia. The door was open so I took a peek inside and the first thing I saw was the sink where Matt and I gave Olivia her bath. I remember my dad telling me that the back of my hospital gown was open. I was wearing those wonderful underwear things the hospital gives you, so I wasn't all that worried about it.
I can't believe how fast time has gone by. And to think that by Olivia's 1st birthday, we will have another little girl to add to the bunch...and we couldn't be happier about that.
On a happy note, exactly two months from today is Sarah Mae's due date. She better have a head full fo hair, because the indigestion and heartburn is just getting worse and something better come of the pain and suffering and i won't be suprised if I deliver a monkey...have you seen her hairy father?

I had terrible heart burn and none of my babies were hairy...It's hard to believe it's been 10 months...where has time gone...next thing you know your little Sarah Mae will be starting school and then getting married...crazy how fast time passes...

Is that an old wives tale that if you have heartburn you get hairy babies? I haven't ever heard that. Anyway, glad to hear even though it was a significant day for you it seems like you have a good outlook. I still am so amazed by your strength. 2 more months and you'll have a new baby where has the time gone
