This morning we went to the hospital to have a baby. But, before we could do that, Ben had to be selfish and make the day all about him - by waking up with pink eye and an ear infection.

So, before going to the hospital, we went to the walk-in clinic to have him checked out so we could get medicine. Yes, Ben mentioned he had a pregnant wife that would be delivering today. And yes, that got him to the front of the line.

The next trip was to the Wal-Mart pharmacy where Ben used the same line about his wife having a baby. And yes, their "30 minute wait time" to get the prescription ready got cut in half. It is amazing how fast people will work when they know a baby is on the way.

So, we raced over to the hospital and had a baby.

Here is a picture of Corah with Elizabeth after the surgery:

We did not get a picture of Ben holding her because he was paranoid about getting her sick. But, here is another picture of Corah in the recovery room with Elizabeth:

Sternberg Museum

We decided to have one last hurrah with the kids before the new baby comes. They voted to go to the Sternberg Museum to see the dinosaurs (the other choice was the Cosmosphere space museum).

We had lots of fun and the kids got to dig for fossils during the trip:

They also got to strap on tails and build their own "nests."
