Claire is coming soon!

Well, the time is here. Mandy went into the hospital at 8:00 this evening. Nana managed to get the kids fed, bathed, and in bed by 8:45. Chloe had a little melt down when Mommy was getting ready to leave, but she got over it and snuggled with me for awhile. Ben was awesome with her--he hugged her and told her it would be all right and that they would see mommy and baby
Claire tomorrow and that everything was ok 'cause Nana was here. He found her new favorite cat toy and put it in bed with her.

Mandy and I are texting back and forth like crazy! She's really starting to dilate and contractions are increasing in both number and intensity. I want to be there when Claire arrives, but also am hoping that Mandy can deliver her without having to get pitosin. Guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
Don't think anyone but the kids will get much sleep tonight!
