The Pool Trick Didn't Work

Since planting a tree for Emily wasn't enough to bring her into this world like it was for Jackson, we thought there must have been something missing. For those of you who remember, Jackson was born after a day playing and planting in the backyard. You see, Angel's family was in town helping with some yard improvements. The highlight of these green additions was Jackson's tree. A Red Maple that we planted so that it could grow up right along side little J-Man.

We had the inflatable pool out and were enjoying the warm (not too hot) early summer in Katy. Once we had the tree in the ground, we barely had time to put the pool away before Jackson decided it was time to meet his family.



Fast forward 2 years.... stop. OK, now you're in 2006 again. We thought we'd bring out the ol' inflatable pool and have a repeat performance. We would go to bed on Saturday night, and Angel would calmly wake us up at about 1am saying, "Nobody panic, I just wanted to let you all know I am going into labor."

Although we had a great time playing in the sun, no sign of Emily yet. Here is a pic of Jackson and Mommy having fun in the pool:

However, we do have a pretty good idea when Emily will arrive. It is looking like next Tuesday (Jackson's Birthday!) if she can wait that long. We'll keep you posted.
