My favorite kind of phone call!

When my phone rang this morning and I saw my friend Becki's name flash up on Caller ID, I just KNEW she was calling with good news!

Our friend Melanie gave birth to a bouncing baby girl last night! YAY! I'm so excited for her and her hubby and can't wait to see pics of little Lucy!

You can see a pic of a very pregnant Melanie and a not-so-very pregnant Becki in this post on our friend Ellen's blog. It was taken at Melanie's baby shower a couple of weeks ago, which sadly I was unable to attend.

For those of you who are wondering, Melanie, Becki, Ellen, and I all met during our freshman year of college, when we lived on the same floor of Founders Hall at the University of Dayton (almost a decade ago?!? eeeeek!!).

Although I only attended UD for 9 short months of my life, these girls have always made a huge effort to keep in touch with me over the years, for which I'm very grateful! They are three of the truest friends I've ever known.

I guess I got a jumpstart on the marriage/kids thing, but they're slowly but surely catching up to me now... and I'm living vicariously through them at this point! Ellen, you're next, dear! *wink*

Congrats to Mel and Steve! Enjoy that sweet baby!

You're funny. (and full of wishful thinking)

As a married woman I can say Erin, you should be living more vicariously through our single friend than trying to bring her into the sisterhood.
Thanks for the well wishes. We are enjoying baby every minute. Even when she has screaming fits & projectile poops. Any time you want to meet her we are here.
