I'm Almost a Big Sister!

Hey everyone!

The time has drawn near! Hopefully in the next few hours I will be a big sister! Around 7:30pm on Saturday night, Mommy's water broke and her and Daddy went to the hospital. They left me locked in a closet, but I was able to jimmy the lock and get to the computer. (Actually, Carrie is spending the night with me at our house!)

I just got word that BabyT2 is a copycat and started his own blog. The website is http://welcomebabyt2.blogspot.com/ (Man, he couldn't even come up with an original web address!)

Regardless, I am excited about the prospect, and ultimate reality, of being a big sister. I know that for the first six or seven months I won't be able to really play with BabyT2. After all, for the first four or five months all the rugrat is going to do is eat, sleep, and poop! But as soon as he gets mobile....ohhh, the things I will be able to teach him. I can't wait. By the time he starts crawling, I'll be able to talk to him.

I already have a few words down pretty well including Momma, Dadda, Thank you, Excuse me, and ouch. More importantly, I can use all of these words in context. For example, when I cough, I cover my mouth and, when I remember, I say excuse me. Granted it comes out sounding like "cuse me", but it is fun to see the look on Mommy and Daddy's faces' when I do it. Also, when Mommy or Daddy hand me something, I say "tank you." There expression is still one of amazement. What will their expression be when I start reciting the Constitution?

Well I have to sneak back into bed before Carrie sees that I am on the computer. I'll post more as soon as BabyT2 shows up. Again, his blog address is http://welcomebabyt2.blogspot.com/ . Check it out.

Love ya!
