As we were waiting in the hospital, I found that they had local radio stations on the in-hospital TV network, and one of them was 94.7 WLS-FM Chicago's True Oldies Channel. I called my friend Greg, who is the afternoon host, and by chance, it happened to be a "Baby Weekend." Interesting how radio works because my father heard this and called me right after he heard it.

Also, below is some pictures and video of Edie coming home for the first time. Enjoy!!!

Edie Lynn is here!!
She was born on Wednesday 1/27/10 at 12:35p weighing 6lbs. 10oz. and measuring 20 inches in length.

Sorry for the delay in updating this site...the hospital internet connection was causing some issues and blocking me from this site. Thanks for all the love and support...and Edie thanks you too! We will be going home Saturday afternoon, to start this new chapter of our lives at our home. More updates soon!

This is the last weekend before Edie arrives this Wednesday. Danielle is scheduled for a C-Section Wednesday 1/27/10 at noon. We are both very excited and ready for the new chapter of our lives together (and our families). Danielle's parents were down this weekend to celebrate Rick's birthday, and help with the finishing touches for Edie's room. It's surreal because this week, a little person moves in to this room that we have been planning for months. Below are the finished pics as of Sunday night before her birthday.

Many a late night coming to this space!

Lot's of wipin' planned here

No matter what day you are using for a reference, the final countdown to Edie 2010 has begun. On our last doctor appointment, we found out that Edie is "breach" and we needed to schedule a C-section to be ready. Her original due date was Feb 2nd...and now a second due date in January 27th. We have another doctor appointment tomorrow to find out it she has turned and is ready to "head out" into this world. More details soon!
