8 weeks down/8 weeks to go and 30 week pregnant. Tomorrow marks the half way bed rest point!! 56 days past and 56 days ahead of us (to reach 38 weeks). I celebrated the day with a decaf mocha frappacino from Starbucks (on the way home from my doctors appt). After I placed my order and sat awhile in the drive-thru line, the barista apologized for the long wait. I thought to myself, "Are you kidding? What wait, I'm too busy soaking in the sunshine, admiring the trees, and people watching." I can't tell you how long it has been since I've have had the pleasure of waiting in line. Nothing like bed rest to put things in perspective.
A few of this weeks highlights:
fresh chocolate chip cookies made by nanny Sarah and the kids
Emily taking all 3 of my kiddos to the spray park (and the funny pics and port-a-potty story that go with that)
plans to embroider a baby bib and some towels (thanks Sarah for the idea and supplies)
a quiet 20 minute dinner alone with Jesse while the kids watched a show
a good doctors report (that everything has stayed the same)
plans to lay on the couch at my Nana's while the kids swim one day soon
dinner from a unknown neighbor
another week of Keri's fabulous grocery delivery service
learning how to french braid Ava's hair (thank you u-tube)
Jesse teaching me how to load pics from my phone to my blog
Thanks Lord for the many blessings of this week. I'm betting next week will be just a good!
