Congratulations again to Jennifer Mies on the birth of beautiful (but not big enough) Rachel Kathryn Mies. You can check out every moment of Rachel's life for the next five months at her blog. :-)
Jennifer WAS my favorite co-worker (Sorry Christi and Andrew). She is now out for 5 more months of maternity leave, and it has taken three people (and alot of bribes) on her team to replace the fun and DISTRACTIONS that Jennifer brought to the workplace.
Before Rachel was born, Jennifer setup an account on www.expectnet.com. This is a place where your friends and relatives can predict various aspects of your child's birth such as date, weight, hair color, etc. What stinks is that the baby's gender counts as a ridiculous amount of points, and that killed me early on. Her husband and I were in a bit of denial for a couple of weeks.
My only hope was that Rachel would come out bigger than Andrew's dream scooter, since I was the only person who predicted a weight of 12lbs. (sigh) She didn't make it much past 9. Which was a little disappointing considering Jennifer's tummy was so huge. I mean....HUGE!! Everyone was convinced she was having twins.
Jennifer, we miss you. Keep showing the dog some blog lovin' too! :-)
