Up and at em!

If you have ever felt bad for not working out on a regular basis I can tell you from personal experience that even the small things you do everyday, say like walking into a store or just around your house, really are great exercise. Why do I say this? Because my poor body is in such pain from doing these small tasks. I never knew how many muscles are in my body until I didn't use them for 3.5 months and then I expect them to still know how to work. I was able to start resuming activity this week and basically I haven't done very much but at night I can barely move. It's a good thing that I have a little time to regain strength before I have to deliver a baby!

Almost Done!

I am now 34+ weeks. I can't believe I've made it this far! We have now passed when Carter was born so we know that prematurity wise this baby would be fine in the long run but we are going to go for gold and try to get this baby home with us. I only have to make it about a week and a half longer for that. The last of our family help left yesterday and now we will try to make it work with friends and people from church. We are so blessed and grateful to have the children that we have and this new one to enter into our family. We are constantly amazed at our Heavenly Father's love and that he still answers prayers with miracles. To quote Edwin McCain on my play list "these are the moments I'll remember all my life. I've found all I've waited for and I could not ask for more."

Carter turns Five!!!

When did I get a five year old?

Easter

We had a wonderful CA Easter with temps in the 80's. Of course I was inside in bed but the kids enjoyed it!
