Today is the day...

Today we will meet our sweet little Chase, Zak and I will become the parents of TWO BOYS, and Colton will officially become a big brother!

We were told that if the induction had to be pushed back we would get a call around 4 am and it's 5 am right now. I hope I'm not jinxing anything but I feel like its okay to say "It's time!" The past couple of weeks I've had a really hard time sleeping. Not necessarily because I'm uncomfortable just because I wake up at all of hours of the night ready to start the day completely unable to fall back asleep. Today was no different. I knew I'd be able to fall asleep but I didn't think I'd be able to stay asleep. The anticipation is just too much! I was right. I got up last night at 1:45 for about 15 minutes and then woke up for the day at about 3 this morning. I wouldn't let myself get out of bed 'til 4 and I tried everything to get back to sleep but I was just too excited.

I'm off to wake up daddy and in about an hour my parents will be here to watch Colton until about 9 when they'll drop him off with my cousin and head up to the hospital with my sister. Zak's family will join us shortly after since his mom and sister both have to work for a couple hours this morning.

We can not wait to hold Chase in our arms and introduce him to his big brother.

I'll post pictures as soon as I can, probably when we get home.
