The recent history of Elise is as follows:
Only a few days ago Elise was but a bulge in Monika's belly
Elise was 15 days early, but she was a good size and very healthy. At about 5:40am Saturday, we decided that we should start timing contractions. Fortunately, Rose Marie (Monika's sister) happened to be around to take care of Erik (a stroke of luck) when we decided to head to the hospital.
