I was supposed to go pick up Ashley, EB, and Lydia on Saturday or Sunday when they headed up to Jackson at the end of Spring Break. On Friday, Ashley called with the news that Whitney was several cm dilated and having contractions. The decision: Get on a plane and be there when the baby was born!
While Ashley was awaiting Laura Leigh, EB and L were chilling at the pool at CC and Granddaddy's.
I picked up the girls on Saturday. They watched me play drums at church (thanks to Ben for sitting with them while I was on stage), and we went across the street that afternoon for a short play date that turned into us going to watch Nicholas's last baseball game of this season.
Nicholas's mom, Erin, watched the girls Monday night while I drove to the airport to get Ashley ... who is not yet an Aunt thrice over. Apparently, LL just wasn't quite ready to make her arrival. The trip was still worth it, and we are very much looking forward to meeting Laura Leigh soon.
