Big Update
Well, as most of you know by now, I have been put on strict bed rest...probably why I have time to update the blog:) I started having pretty bad and frequent contractions on Thursday morning, and after many test and an ultrasound, I was admitted to the hospital for observations. I did get to go home that night, but I went home with orders of bed rest with minimal walking and medicine to stop the contractions. Things got a little worse today, and my doctor had to up my dosage of medicine and my minimal bed rest went to strict bed rest. My next appointment is on Tuesday and we will get another ultrasound to see how things are going. If I am still progressing, I will be put on steroids to strengthen the baby's lungs...just to be safe. I promise to keep everyone updated and I am trying to stay in good spirits about everything...a stressed body is not good right now! To show everyone that I really am staying in bed, I have included a picture complete with a bowl of popcorn I was snacking on. We are all thinking happy thoughts and David has had a firm talking to with Plum...she has strict instructions to hold on.

Okay, so have you gotten the memo from Plum that you and daddy are going to have your hands full? I think she is going to be a real go-getter!! You are all in my thoughts and prayers, and I love all three!!!
Glad that David had his first stern talk with Miss Plum! Stay resting, with your popcorn ;) Praying for NO PROGRESS!!!! She needs to cook quite a bit longer, silly gurl!!
oyu need to buy this itunes application that hypnotises you to be less stressful!!!!! it works i am using it
don't stress, keep resting and tell her to hold tight, we want her big and strong when she greets the world!btw, if you need something to do i can send you tons of papers to grade and some craft projects to start! LOL
Elise,
Take care of yourself--thank god for cable tv!
Plum- stay in there and keep cooking- it's much warmer than it out here now!! You'll be in our prayers.
