Memory Tag!

Tag...You're it!

1. Add a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

32 weeks!

Well...I made it to 32 weeks! Yeay! I'm still on my contraction medication and will be until about 36 weeks. Then it's safe to go off of it and have the baby whenever he comes. I'm just taking it easy here around the house until my doctor appointment on the 22nd. Hope the lil guy justs keeps cookin'! PS...My computer finally let me upload the pics from our vacation! Yeah! Check my last post if you wanna see them!

I'm Back...Finally!!!

Wow...what an eventful vacation!!! We left on July 12th for Yellowstone, then on to Wyoming, followed by Sean's family reunion at Lake Mead. We then headed to Sean's parent's house in New Harmony, Utah to spend time with family. The plan was to leave to come home on Tuesday July 29th...but Evan decided he wanted to try and make an early appearance. Yes...I went into pre-term labor and was stuck in a St. George hospital for 4 nights. Luckily, after scary bleeding, contractions, a DISGUSTING and UNCOMFORTABLE catheter, 2 IV's, 2 shots of steroids to strengthen the baby's lungs in case he was to be born in 2 days, Magnesium sulfate and Procardia pills to stop the contractions, and being absolutely bored out of our minds during our stay there, WE GOT TO COME HOME!!! Sean was so sweet and took such good care of me while I was in the hospital...I mean, what husband would help me pee and poo in a bed pan??? That's tough love!!! Haha!! Thanks, honey!! The doctors there had us scared that the baby was going to be born and would have to stay in the NICU in St. George until his due date on October 8th!!! We are so grateful that Evan decided to stay inside my tummy and cook for a little bit longer...hopefully I can make it to 36 weeks!!! I'm just taking it easy now at home, watching LOTS of TV, sleeping in until 11am to make the days go by faster, and enjoying the book Twilight by Stefenie Meyer (I just finished and am now into New Moon).

I have tons of pictures from our trip before all this drama happened so I'll go ahead and post those...including my week 28 belly pictures (even though I'm now 31 weeks and will post new ones next week!)
