Friends from the start!

Our very good friends Josh and Meredith had their third little girl the same day we had Cohen. It is always fun to be pregnant at the same time with one of your friends-sharing stories, comparing symptoms, showing up to places wearing almost the same outfit... We always joked about being in the hospital together, but me being due two weeks earlier- I mean what were the odds. God must laugh when we talk about "odds". I was shocked when Meredith called four days before my due date saying she was going in the next day to be induced. Well, Cohen got the message! About an hour later I started having contractions. We were admitted into the hospital about an hour and a half before the Joiners, but sweet Annie was bound and determined to win the race. She arrived forty minutes before Cohen. Not that Cohen didn't give it a good try- both babies arrived within 3 1/2 hours of getting to the delivery room!
