Bed Rest and Lazy Bones

Hi guys. Welcome to July. My husband finally got back two days ago. It's nice having him here and everything, especially since I gave my family a scare about two weeks ago and everyone thought I was going to have the baby without him. I was at Chelsi's bachelorette party (with a limo-- fun!), and I started having cramps in my lower back. Well, the mother of the hostess told me that's a sign of early labor (which I already knew, but it helped to have someone else with the same concern). So I backtracked to Logan and got checked out. Sure enough I was dilating. At that point the baby would've been premature, and of course Jay was gone, so I was put on bed rest for a couple weeks. My family flipped out and kidnapped me and I wasn't allowed to even get myself a glass of water for about 11 days! (They would've carried me to the bathroom, but I insisted I needed some exercise!) It wasn't that bad actually, being waited on hand-and-foot, but now I'm conditioned to laziness and am more tired than ever.

So our baby could come any day. Jay and I are going out to the movies every day this week. We have so much to do around the house to prepare for little Leisl. It's frightening, this parenthood thing. Oh well. Too late now!

Congrats to all who keep getting interviews. Good luck getting the job you like.

Will someone tell me about Chelsi's reception? I was stuck on a sofa sipping ice water
