My wife rocks

I called Tara as I was leaving work Wednesday evening to check in and learned she was having some contractions just like Monday evening.

The main contractions lasted from 5 to 10 or 11 pm when they eventually spaced out enough to not be concern. The good news is that when the nurse checked there was no progression, still 5 cm. My wife is a real trooper.

Tara was a little sore this morning but in good spirits and enjoying her apple when I left.

Tara, you're amazing! You've already shown Crosby how great of a mom you are. Not to mention, Chris, you are such a great husband to your wife; I know she appreciates your presence and encouragement. All the best to you both and your little family. :-)

Tara,
You ARE a trooper, and you DO rock.

NO doubt in anyone's mind!

I'm so proud of Chris, too, for realizing what a trooper you are and how much you rock! :)

Love yall so much, and we're praying for little man to keep hangin' 'in there' :) for as long as the Lord will allow...with as much comfort as possible for Mommy.

Hi Tara (and Chris)...

Thinking about you guys and enjoying the updates on Crosby. Just a little bit longer, Tara. You can do it!

I'm working on Christmas cards...want me to send yours to the hospital? I'm kidding. Sorta.

I really do need your new address though!

I'm so glad Crosby is being patient!! Chloe was not so helpful. Jane was at 5cm when we got to the hospital and Chloe showed up about 4 1/2 hrs later! We'll keep praying for you all!

If Crosby arrives on December 15, he and Sydney may well have the same birthday! That's the date we're looking at induction if she doesn't come on her own before then. They must be in cohoots with each other!

Keep hanging in there,
Theresa
