"Come on Mom, why do we have to sit here staring into the sun when we really aren't feeling that great?"
Kids are doing better but still working on getting to 100%. No fevers though. We just stocked up on books and movies! from our new local library for our long weekend w/o our #1 husband and dad. He'll be at a conference at George Fox (Oregon) soaking up some rain and lots of church history knowledge.
Jack joined our family at 10:24 this morning. Everyone is well. He weighed 6 lb. 2 oz. and measured 19". Lillian is playing with Ms. Aaryn, and Jack and Mom are napping. Here are some pictures.
As I'm laying here on bed rest, I can't stop thinking about having a newborn a my arms. But alas, I'm still at home waiting for this baby to decide to come. My Tuesday appointment showed an elevated blood pressure (same occurred with the other two) and so I spent 2.5 hours at the hospital for monitoring and lab tests. With normal results I was sent home (thank you thank you) on bed rest. This means little to no movement around. Grammy is most affected by this and she's doing an amazing job with Lillian and Jack - in fact, she's doing everything, including taking care of me and the household chores. Wow! The good news is that I've moved on from 2cm (16 days ago) to 4cm. So really, it's up to the babe to realize what a great family and world awaits him on this side :) It could be he/she is waiting for Kyle and I to decide on a good name - suggestions anyone? Here are the first pics of my Lillian May and Jack Robert: Jack joined our family at 10:24...
