New addition to the family


Yes you read it right!! No not my baby:-) Bryan's brother got married last weekend. It was such a fun, beautiful wedding up at Hume Lake. My girls were flower girls ( along with Alisha's girls) and Adam was so cute. The Books and us rented a cabin for the weekend. We went up Friday for rehearsal, Bryan came down Saturday for the Fresno state game and my mom came up to help me with the kids. I could not have done it without her, she ironed, did hair, watched the kids, etc. It was a full weekend but I got to rest a little and enjoy the wedding. 
Monday we got to have dinner with Bryan's cousin Del and his family. They are missionaries in Africa and are home for a few months since they just had their third baby boy. It was fun to hang out and see where God is using them.
     This week I have been on an antibiotic and it has made me SO tired. I have finally been sleeping more than 2 hours at a time, some times only 3 hours, but ill take it. Napping a lot and cleaning when I can is my life right now. This weekend I've been having contractions and just feeling blah. Praying they are doing something. Really made me realize how close baby is to bring here. 3 weeks left!!

Another week on bed rest

Last week at the dr he said thing were looking better. Labs came back good, I lost 7 pounds in 4 days, and I could get up a little more. Being able to rest and sleep during the day was helping, since I didn't get much sleep at night. Pretty much I'm resting and organizing, resting and cleaning. Thanks to my mom for helping with the organizing and cleaning part my house is getting ready for baby. Yesterday I was feeling ok so I ran my lesson plans into work, dropped paper work off at the district office and ran to target for a few things, personal products and an outfit for my brother in laws wedding on Sunday. By the time I got home I felt like I couldn't move. I tried stretching, walking, moving, crawling, etc. nothing worked. Thanks to my husband for taking care of the kids and dinner I was able to rest on the couch. However I did not sleep last night. This morning I went to the dr and he said its normal that I'm just stretching and so women end up not being able to walk ( just what I need) he measured the baby and I listened to the heart beat. I don't know what he did but when I left I could move ( well at least walk with no pain) Bryan and I were able to grab lunch together which was nice. I enjoy spending time with that man! Right now I'm a little sore but at least I can walk around. I'm excited to start my moms group back up on Thursday ( not sure how many I'll make before baby) and for a weekend up at Hume for a family wedding. ( ill be mostly sitting around) looking forward to a new view for a few days. Please be praying that baby and I stay healthy and that baby keeps cooking ( even though I'm so ready to not be pregnant and so ready to meeting this little one)
