Updates for all.....







It's been almost 2 weeks since I posted! Yikes! It's been a crazy couple of weeks! Where to begin......Well the happiest, most fantabulous happening was Aaron and I being sealed in the temple on May 17th. I know some of you are AMAZED I haven't posted any pics or anything from that glorious evening but my dad sent me a bunch of pics in one of those slideshow emails so I don't know quite how to get the pics from that. He's also sending a CD with all of them in JPEG so it will be up shortly and those of you who couldn't attend can share in the fun! It was wonderful! Afterwards, a bunch of us went to Cheescake Factory to stuff our faces...YUMMY! All I kept thinking as I looked at my husband to my parents to all of our amazing friends was "My cup runneth over!" That sums up all of the love I felt coming toward us and spilling out right back, I couldn't descibe it better than that.
I went from about 3:30pm to 10:30pm without eating so Baby Wise was inside causing a fuss! I don't blame him/her! My legs & feet were so swollen from our crazy weekend.......which led to Sunday's little drama. Sunday morning after my folks left and Glen left (sniff sniff) we went to church and I noticed my legs were still swollen from the day before (yikes) so I figured I just hadn't gotten enough rest so I'd put my feet up when we got home from church. Then I noticed I was spotting a little and thanks to my smart previously preggie friends at church who took one look at me and said "Call you doctor" I did so and she told me to get to the hospital. That's her in the picture above, isn't she cute? Besides feeling tired from the weekends festivities, I felt otherwise fine, but now I was nervous because I have had a wonderfully uneventful pregnancy so far. So we got there and they hooked me up to the monitors and informed me I was having mild contractions!!! EEEKK! They gave me a TON of cran-apple water to drink and laid me down on my left side for a couple of hours until there were no signs of contractions. They told me to put my feet up whenever I can and stay out of the darn heat and drink fluids even when I don't think I need any.
So with 3 more months to go, I did not like hearing the "contraction" word and got a little worried but that doesn't do anybody any good, so I've been a good girl and taking it easy at home with my feet up and drinking us out of house and home! Thankfully our weather has decided to cool down quite a bit and hopefully will continue like this! So everyone keep praying that the little one stays in there safe & sound until it's time!
