My first week of bed rest went by pretty quickly. My dad brought me lunch one day. My mom did some clothes shopping for me and made me a meal. My parents, aunt, cousin, and her husband came over for dinner on Saturday night. My mom did everything while I sat on the couch with my feet up and watched. It was kind of strange being in my own house and unable to help. It was great to see my Aunt Pam and cousin Tarala. They brought me a bag of sweets, magazines, and books that should keep me occupied for a while. I was supposed to have a baby shower on Sunday but it was canceled. Instead the hostesses came over with a cake, snacks, and presents and spoiled me on Sunday afternoon. With them they also brought great things for me to do while laid up. Thanks to my friend Laura I've taken up knitting. I already finished my first project...a hat for our baby boy. I will make one for our baby girl next. My friend Echo also brought me a whole series of books to read. I am so thankful for my family and friends. You've all been so supportive and I am blessed to have you in my life! I see the doctor tomorrow and I am hopeful for good news.
