Bye-Bye Bah-Bah! We finally decided to force the issue with Sophie. We felt that she had been addicted to milk from a bottle (street slang, “Bah-Bah”) for too long. It was taking over her life.

Here’s the first post about Maggie Moonbeam (sister of Sophie Sunshine, and daughter of ours!).Saturday Morning arrived…and Betsy had not had any sleep. She had contractions (and she knew it this time) since around midnight. She woke Neal up around 4am so that he could appreciate the contractions as well. They timed the contractions for …
