Okay, so I know my job here as Supreme Blogging Overlord Round-Up Blog Rounder-Upper isn't really supposed to be some kind of blogger birth announcement central, but...I like blogger birth announcements.
Emily had baby Asher David late yesterday afternoon (she blogged FROM THE HOSPITAL, people, using stolen wi-fi through her room window), and already has a slew of edible, deliriously happy photos up. Go congratulate her, and be sure to tell her about stuff that she totally should have packed.
Weirdly, a bunch of the pregnant bloggers I've mentioned on this blog have given birth recently. ("Weirdly?" What? News Flash to Amy! Pregnancy is not eternal, even though it sometimes felt that way.)
JenEx gave birth to Lila Catherine (oh my GOD, that face) a little over two weeks ago, while Elizabeth of Preemiehood (you remember her story, right?) safely delivered baby Nolan on September 11th. He was five weeks early, but completely healthy and perfect.
So the only pregnant blogger left from this post is Arwen, who is full term and waiting. And waiting.
And of course, we still have our cadre of knocked-up ClubMom bloggers. Which is good, since there are few things I love more in life than a good birth story. (I wrote mine like, three times, no lie.)
Beautiful babies. Thank you, Amy.

LOVE the babies and birthing and pregnancy. I think maybe I should revisit my own birth stories...maybe rewrite them. I certainly didn't do my daughter's birth justice in the blogging world. She was born on the bathroom floor for goodness sake! I only dedicated a couple of paragraphs to it.

giving birth on the bathroom floor = BIRTH STORY CRACK
It's second only to giving birth in the back of a cab on a highway overpass, in the rain, while Matthew Perry yells that HE WAS WRONG AND HE LOVES YOU! WILL YOU MARRY HIM? And then the EMTs and police officers applaud and you maybe look a lot like Salma Hayek.

Thank you for the updates!

I think it would be great if this were officially Blogger Birth Announcement Central. Add in a bit of Blogger Knocked-Up Announcement central and I'll be clicking on links all over the place. Mommies love to read blogs of other mommies who are going through the same things at the same time. I have a 2.5 year old and am 20 weeks pregnant with bambino #2 right now. I'm constantly on the look out for more blogs of people in the same frying pan. I'm counting on you to help me!
