Still here. Contractions are picking up and I’m at 4 but I’m feeling pretty good. This is so different than my other 2 inductions. Doctor is predicting baby by 3:30, but I’m not so optimistic. It's 3:27. Central time 😉 currently 3:18 and i just got the epidural. Aaamazing. But i think it’ll be a while yet |

I think I say your name wrong! I guess I’ve never said it out loud. OMG, I always pronounced it Tonya in my head. Tone-ya Ok I was pronouncing it right! We’ll sort of, I was emphasizing the -ia, but it’s just -ya. |

Then I am saying it right Sara with an M is mare-uh to me. No, that’s the mispronunciation I'm saying it with air like klong11 said. Mare is the same as mair. At least to me.. |

Z is the opposite of tgrimes’ M. Z’s is like “bar” and gets mispronounced like “air.” |

My child has had diarrhea 2x today...the first time resulted in throwing away her outfit because it was awful, we were at the hospital for her appointment and I had nothing to put it in to contain it until I could get home to wash it. The second time was in Walmart, in which I did not take any diapers or wipes in (stupid move considering her earlier issue), so I grabbed some and changed her, luckily didn’t need another outfit because I would have had to buy that too.

If someone calls C Cal I get pissed. Only my mom has tried it. That didn’t go well. C would correct people too. We get a lot of Colin so he’s gotten some practice.
I get called Mary sometimes. My name is not two words and there’s no Y. It’s not meant to be shortened. Although I do use Mary for takeout and giving my name at restaurants. Somehow my full name gets butchered.

No one ever gets my name right, and the kids get a kick out of it. |

Also tgrimes How is H? You suspected an ear infection before you left. Has he been ok with the ILs? My MIL took him on Sunday. EI. We were just on augmentin a few weeks ago so they gave him amoxicillin. I feel bad because she missed the Texans game and it was a good game. M went with my FIL. |

A lot of my family and friends call me Jo and all my nieces and nephew call me Aunt Jo! My mom was Jo, so it always feels like she’s with me when I use it. So sweet. Was Jo her full name or was it Josephine (which I think is your J's full name?)? |

She was either Jo or, to her friends from when she was younger and still in Italy, she was Pina. My dad called her that, too. Josie is Josephine which, coincidentally, was also MH’s mom’s name. |

guster that is quite the coincidence. Although both our mothers have similar names (mary jane variations) but in opposite order.

I’m sure H gave her a lot of snuggles since she stayed home with him. |
