We had a great weekend in Port Orchard with a ton of family. It was Lillian's first time to the US and she slept her longest night of 7 hours. She's now up to 10 hours at night now.

This is who we got to see during our time there: Uncle Bert, Aunt Karen, Jonathan, Bekah, Javan, Joel, Dr & Mrs Thiessen, Aunt Jayne, Uncle Bill, Paul, Jennifer, Matt, Julianna, Jim, Radu, Ruthie, and Mary.

One of the highlights during our visit was seeing Joel wrestle and win his match!! We did get some video of this but no photos, sorry.

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...
