I realize I have not done a "real" post in a long time but I have good reasons. I have a post in my head already planned out but have not scanned something that I wanted to post. I am not doing very much these days that is blog-worthy and taking photos of said unworthy activities has not been happening.
But the boys are doing funny and great things everyday that I am forgetting about because I am not blogging. So I guess I might as well do a run down of what is going on so that I can start posting regularly.
I am pregnant, I am having a boy and am due the beginning of May. Some of you knew already but most don't know that I am unofficially on bed rest (I did go to Target today but am planning on spending the rest of the day on the couch or in bed). On Friday the 18th, I woke up to contractions but I wasn't sure if they were contractions or not because I am not that far along. After several hours, we went to the hospital and Jill was great enough to take the boys to Disneyland for me. After spending all afternoon and early evening at the hospital, I was able to go home with the understanding that I would be "taking it easy, putting my feet up several times a day and drinking lots of water." I went for an appointment on Wed and the doctor told me the same thing and said I cannot go to Disneyland for 9 weeks (unless I am in a wheelchair or promise to spend only 2 hours with resting- but would prefer me to not go at all). I had to be released from Nursery which has been the hardest thing.
So now that I have come clean, I will try to be a better at posting but no promises. I really do have some cute photos on the camera that I should blog about before I forget the stories behind the photos.

The last part of the info makes everything clear now. ;) You better stay down if that's what they said to do!!!! You want me to come pack your things??? I'm pretty good at it with all my experience...just slow though. :)
I knew some of that. Don't push your luck sister, even if it is annoying. I've had to learn the hard way to take it easy, which feels like being lazy but means you'll pay later if you don't do what your supposed to. Disneyland isn't going anywhere. : )
Take it easy and LISTEN to your doctor. I've learned the hard way, they know what is best. Disneyland will still be there and it will be even more wonderful if you have to wait awhile. Pretend you're like all of us that rarely get to go. I'll keep your name in the SL Temple when I go in to work my shift each Saturday. Take care! :)
I am so sorry to hear about that there is nothing harder then being on bed rest. When we did the harvesting for IVF, I had hyper stimulation and was put on strict bed rest for about a month and it was the worst! So I feel for you, but I didn't have kids which I am sure makes it so hard!! Well we hope everything is going good and just relax and take it easy. Good luck.
I know that this pure torture for you....and everything that everyone else has said is true...but I know you are like me and I know that you are trying to take it easy...whatever that means for you...I miss our Disneyland and Target trips already...well Target today was fun but I know that will be a rare occurance!!!
Now that you are on bedrest and suppose to take it easy, we should see more posting, right? Congratulations on the news. You need to take care of yourself. I know you have heard that. I bet that's hard to be on bedrest with 2boys to run after. You will be in my prayers that things will be okay. Another boy!!!!
Thanks for coming public. I guess this means you don't want to go sailing/go to Mexico the day before Katie's wedding?
I am so sad about the Disneyland thing, it is so fun when we all get to go. I am so sorry about the bed rest thing, what does a doctor think when that happens and you have 2 active boys???? Goodluck.
So good to hear that you are alright! So...that is why you've had lots of ultrasounds this month! Congrats on another boy. I'm sure I'm having one too...I won't know until the last week of Feb...but I'm already planning on it. Knowing how you are...just like me...I'm sure being home all the time is going to be hard, BUT I know you'll survive! Can't wait to see what you post next...ha ha ha.
Congratulations! I was wondering why you have had so many ultrasounds lately. Boys are great and 3 will be fun! Sorry about the bed rest- that is miserable. At least you have a great excuse to make your husband do dishes and vacume! Good luck with everything.
I didnt know that you were pregnant. Congrats! I def know its hard to go through a hard pregnancy, so I am sorry! We have not been to the Riverwalk yet.. we went to the alamo and all that...which is right next to the riverwalk so I dont know why we didnt go there!!!!
I didn't know you were expecting! Congratulations! I am however sorry to hear that you are on bed rest. I just wish I was closer so I could help. I hope everything goes well and I hope you get the extra support you need from the family and loved ones that are close. luv Becky
I sent Little Boy Brown something in the mail, but I forgot to take your address to the post office so I mailed it to Mom and Dad's house instead. So look for it next time you're there. :)
I decided that because of your bed rest I will try to be a better blogger. I know I am lazy and that even me making an effort is still less than most people but I will still try. I also do this in honor of your birthday, 8 months away.
