Week 2 on 6.5 to go

Everything is going smoothly and that's how we plan to keep it!! No change is good news. Today I had my glucose test, I assume all is well as no one has taken my desserts away! Next Monday we are going to stay biophysical ultrasounds to monitor babies growth, fluid levels, and I'm sure some other fancy stuff!

I have had all kinds of wonderful visitors, thank you all of you that have stopped by no matter how long. Any break in the routine is welcome! Thank you also for the cards and gifts of time consuming activities for the next 45 days. Again November 22nd is our goal-get to 34 weeks!! So there's lots of time to stop by and check out my place at the hospital.

I had a fantastic weekend. Mom and I watched A LOT of football, came up with some crafts/projects, aunt patty was here to visit and Kevin and Oliver came down! I got to snuggle with my little boy and there isn't much better than that! I'm thankful he's young enough not to know what's going I or remember it! He's absolutely adorable and sweet! 

Then yesterday my magnificent golf team went out and won districts! These young ladies amaze me with their strength, focus, and determination. I hope they keep it rolling at sectionals and take it all the way to state! I miss them and our time together, but am so excited for the next couple of years!

Who knew crocheting could be so addictive! I started one scarf yesterday and some how managed to make it look like more of a Christmas tree skirt than as scarf. So I'm back at it today and prototype b looks sooo much better. Look forward to finish product pictures.

Well it's movie night for me and mom so I'm signing off. Love and good night!

So I've started a days countdown to 34 weeks. That would put us at November 22nd and that is my goal with these two. I'm doing well with the bed rest I think because I've been here before. It's not as scary this time because I know the care we are getting is the best. I try to stay positive as much of the time as possible and enjoy each moment.

My mom has been here since Sunday and what a blessing. Every morning she has a treat bag and a small gift for me. I hope I'm half the mom she is! We are trying to come up with a craft project while we are here. Thinking infinity scarf crochet..... We are going to probably start with a solid color and if we can accomplish that then maybe add colorS! She is perusing Pinterest for ideas while I knock out the levels on Candy Crush - not exactly but I did finally beat one I'd been on for over a month! HIP HIP HOORAY!

Today's big accomplishment was getting to shower again and getting to put on my own clothes and get out of the hospital gown. Feel a little bit more like myself. I can't believe how big my once baby bump is getting. Now it is a BEllllYY! Hard to believe there are two lives in here!! Again, all the nurses are wonderful and show so much kindness and care! Several of them have shared their own bed rest stories-all with good outcomes so I keep telling myself if they can do it I can!

Well my eyes are getting heavy so I better sign off!  One of the hardest parts of this is missing my little O man. He's such a sweetie and sooo fun-growing and changing every day. I miss reading 12 books for bedtime and snuggling under the "cubers" with him. I look forward to him and Kevin visiting on Sunday!!

Hugs and kisses to all!
