Hi everyone! I'm back home in bed for what seems like the millionth day in a row. I am all of a sudden very grateful for my Serta memory foam mattress. Hospital beds are the pits.
The doctor sent me home this morning because they don't want to induce me for another week or so, unless I go into labor on my own of course. But I am having signs of pre-labor left and right, so I am really hoping I might go into labor soon.
I still have pre-eclampsia though so I am not allowed to do anything outside of the bed except use the restroom.
I am very grateful to all of you who have reached out to me--the list is too long to mention by now. I appreciate the love and attention you have all given me, it's so amazing to have such wonderful friends who are so predisposed to giving service. You are all exemplary LDS women and I look up to you all!
My mom is going home this evening, so Erik is in charge now. My mom cooked several things for the freezer and Erik is going to handle breakfast and lunch every day, so we should do pretty well. I have no idea if this is going to last 1 more day or 14 more days. I am so ready to have this baby, though.
It is odd to have the feeling that I love Tyler, and that even if it means I have to be in bed for 2 more weeks I will do it as long as he is safe and healthy. It's an odd feeling because its so motherly and I've never felt motherly before.
Anyway you can tell I am tired because I'm rambling so I'll cut this short. Thanks again to all of you for your prayers, gifts, and help. I'll keep you posted!

I hope you don't mind that I blog stalk you;) You probably don't even know who I am but your husband is our home teacher. Anyways, I am home ALL the time...literally. So if you need ANYTHING I would be more than happy to help. Even if it's something silly like you just are craving a blizzard or something! :)I am in the directory and seriously would love to help out if I can:) AMIE NICOLAS
You think you love Tyler now...you won't believe how you feel once you see that little squirt. There are no words.
