Bed Rest Week 2

I can't believe it's been two weeks of bed rest!  The first week seemed so long, but this week went by really quickly.  Monday, we had our doctors' appointment, and Tuesday my mom came over for part of the day and my dad came over for the other part.  Wednesday was the first time I was home alone in as long as I can remember, because Shonn took Beckett to the farm with him as he worked on the bookshelves with his grandpa.  Beckett had a blast at the farm and came home with all kinds of goodies.  Shonn sent me this video:

I got a lot done at home, but it was lonely. Thursday, Janis came down and took B to play group in the morning.  In the afternoon, I rested with Beckett and Janis fixed the baby's curtains by adding the yellow chevron to the pink polka dot blackout panels - they turned out so cute!


Today, I was home alone again, as Beckett went with Shonn to Mt. Pulaski and spent another day on the farm while Shonn met with a client.  They are on their way home now.  He had fun with Great-Grandma and Papa Hild!  Janis sent me these pictures:




The medicine has somewhat evened out this week, although I still get dizzy after taking it.  I am trying really hard to rest more.  Shonn has helped out a ton again this week, and he has been so sweet to me.  I have loved spending more time together!

I talked with my sub for work today and she is going to do a great job.  It relieves my mind a little to know that there will be more help for the rest of the office staff - it's a busy job and they have picked up my slack while I've been gone these weeks.  Knowing she will be there makes it easier for me to relax and enjoy my time with family while we wait for the little miss. :)

Little Miss is 34 and a half weeks now, and I can tell she is growing!  Even Janis noticed how much I've grown over the past week.  She's definitely taking up more room and I'm back to being out of breath.  We have an appointment on Monday and we get an ultrasound - yay!  I can't wait to see her!
