31 Weeks - What a blessing!


Just wanted to say thank you to all the people who have supported us through this roller coaster month of June. I am feeling so much better as each day passes and thankfully my contractions have slowed to only about 4 or 5 per day. That's nothing compared to what I was experiencing a week ago. I only wish I could go outside and enjoy the summer - I've been inside for 17 days and I have 32 to go. The doc said they will not lift the restrictions, but I have a small amount of hope that they will.

Thankfully, the baby is still hanging on. The baby and I have been through so much this past month with two hospitalizations, a handful of medicines and many scary moments.

My Mom has been a blessing! She has done so much and I can't thank her enough. I've never seen a harder working person in my life. Thanks Mom! I guess this is what Mom's do - they sacrifice for their children. I am now just learning this. :)

Shower Memorial Day Weekend!

Thought I'd add some photos from my shower, the day before I went into labor. It was a beautiful afternoon in St. Louis and we had such a wonderful time. I am so blessed to have such amazing girl friends and that we've remained so close after all these years. Ashley was so sweet and helped me open all my gifts. I am so happy we planned this when we did. Enjoy!
