Thats for sure, its just a pity i am missing out  not being there for her today . but she knows that im in Queensland which is a 3 hour flight from here to Tasmania, but she knows I will be there in Feb.... that will give me a chance to get plenty of happy snaps.

 

Thanks HG,

mrs starkers, I thought she already had it?:blush:

Noo, still playing the waiting game she went in at  about 3am tasmania time and the staff have just moved her to the delivery  room, she only 2cm dilated since being  at the hospital they are talking about puting drips in to help move things along and if that don't work they will most likely do a caeser  , and so far its been 7 hour labor for the poor thing... This is her first so I guess it will take a while
