Folks, this one has nothing to do with our baby girl, but it has everything to do with her future and the future of this country. I don't think I've ever been more proud of being an American than I am tonight. Tonight race, color, and creed don't matter. Integrity, hope, and courage do and aren't those the best qualities in each of us? When Barack Obama lays out his vision for the nation tonight we'll catch a glimpse of the best in each of us. I'm optimistic that we can turn this misguided ship around, that we can correct the mistakes of the last 8 years and show the world that conservatives don't have a corner on the market for family values and patriotism. We can take this country back, all of us, Americans. It's ours. So, as Pollyanna as it sounds.. I believe him when he says: Yes, WE Can!

Rain, Rain...
You know the rest!
Day two of Tropical Storm Fay and still it's more an inconvenience than anything else. A little rain, a little wind and two vacation days. I hope that this posting finds all of you well.
So, as you already know we've had our home study rewritten to include twins or siblings and now it's all I can think about. Obsessive much? Two babies, one trip. Mind you I'm not getting my hopes up too much but c'mon... TWO BABIES!!! How cool would that be? Paul and I were having an what-if conversation on Sunday and we started talking baby names again. Of course our Emma Grace is not changing, but we were thinking about hypothetical Baby Two... Paul asked so innocently, "gosh, what would we name a second baby?" as if I hadn't already thought of that! ;-) So we chatted a bit and the name of HBT, is...drum roll... Baylor Holland! He or She can be their own law firm.. .Baylor Holland and Nehrig! Now before you go jumping to conclusions about how far gone I am about this second baby idea, please know that I know how unlikely this scenario is... but it's good to be optimistic. So, that's all the news on this front for now. We're back on the roller coaster and right now we're loving the ride. It's getting exciting again as we get closer and closer to meeting our daughter (or daughters).
