She's here! Sophie Lynn Dunlap was born on September 16 at 7:54 pm. She was 6 pounds and 18 inches and is beautiful. And I am finally getting some pictures on the blog again. Basically the last few months have been rediculously crazy for us but hopefully now things will get back to normal. Where to start...we bought a new house and got the keys on August 20! It was very exciting and stressful at the same time. All I can say is that moving when you are 8 months pregnant is not very timely. We are making a dent in the boxes in the garage though. You can actually walk through the garage now. Next came John 5's birthday. He's 2! I can't believe it. I didn't realize how big he actually was until Sophie came, but I am jumping ahead. My sister Lindsay got married on September 12. Yay! The wedding was amazing and I am grateful because I didn't give birth at her reception. She got married on a friday and then Sophie decided to come the following Tuesday. My poor mom has been running around like a crazy woman trying to do everything for all her kids. Life has definitely not been slow.
All I can say is that so far she is the best baby ever. Sho only cries for about 2 seconds when she's hungry or poopy. So amazing. Sweetest little girl ever.
Proud daddy in the hospital
All I can say is drug free is not the way to be when having a child. I actually look better than I felt which is not saying much. I started having contractions monday night, they continued sparadically until noon on tuesday. At 2:30 JOhn's sister Katie was driving me from Reno to Auburn because our insurance is with Kaiser. I had contractions 5 min apart the whole car ride. When I got about 15 min from auburn they started lasting 2 minutes and being 3 minutes apart. My mom and I got to the hospital in Sacramento at 6:30, I was dialated to an 8 and she was born at 7:54. John was still in Reno at 6 - needless to say he missed it - he walked in about 2 minutes after my mom cut the cord. I don't recommend this timeline to anyone.
Happy 2nd birthday! What's better than motorcycles to a 2 year old boy? NOTHING
He actually got the concept of opening up presents - it was so fun to watch

Court I'm so proud of you! My car ride was only 15 minutes and it was the suckiest part of the whole labor... I'm so sorry you were stuck in a car so long! I can't believe John missed it... so sad! She is beautiful and looks so much like your beautiful John! Cash keeps calling her picture "Marnen" (Marley). :) We love you!!
Congrats, she is beautiful!!!! I am so happy for you and your family!! I can't believe your labor! Wow, you are amazing. Take care of yourself and your beautiful family. Love, Nicole
Court, good job on posting... I'm actually pretty impressed. Love the pics... she is a doll! I also hate you for your little baby gestation thing saying you should still be prego... 38 weeks. LOVE YA!
I love you and your sweet family. And I also love your baby countdown at 11 days, nice one Sophie:) I would also agree that drugs in labor was amazing. Maybe you'll make it soon enough for the next one to try. I can't believe you have two kids, it's all too legitamite.
Yeah! We are so exctied for you. I kept checking your blog to see if anything was going on and it looks like everything was. Sophie is an adorable name and she looks like John, right? Maybe we'll have to make a trip to see your new house and baby! Congrats again.
I Like the picture with john and the little burrito. baby looks very cute!!
