The joys of bed rest!

Hi friends, sorry I have not updated in so long....I would love to say that I have just had loads of fun and exciting things to do, but unfortunatelly that is not the case :( I am officially on bed rest. My last cervix measurement was at 2.2 cm. so I am down .2 from two weeks ago. I also have stopped working at the salon, that was hard I left 3 years and a day to the day. Oh well I know that this is what is best for Ava, and I willing to do whatever it takes, I just hope with a better attitude as the days pass by. I don't handle being down well, especially when I am in my nesting stage....I keep thinking about what I want to get done before she arrives, and then I get irritatied when I relize that it probably wont get done. My poor husband, he is doing so much for us, and I still pressure him to do more, when will I ever learn?

I have felt her move so much. With Noah I didn't feel anything until about 21 weeks. But I have felt Ava move since about week 15. When we go in for ultrasounds the tec. always says, she is very very active was your son like this? No he wasent, he just like to put his hands between his legs and he was content!! I have a feeling she is going to be like me. I never stopped moving. As a kid no one could ever keep up with me, and boy was I a drama queen, I remember just watching all the kids at recess from the monkey bars to see what they were doing wrong so I could tell on them, oh am I embarrassed....well I have a feeling my daughter may be a mini me. Where in for it. No more sleeping in until 9. My son has spoiled me beyond beleif.

Here we are at the preemie reunion. We didn't really know anyone there, so we only stayed about an hour, Jeff had to weel me out in a wheel chair due to a few strong contractions. I was holding noah on my lap, and Jeff said this is awesome, I have my whole family in one chair, both kids and my wifey, Im a lucky guy! My husband had a way of putting things that melt my heart.

Jeff and Noah went and played with the bubble machine, although Noah wasen't sure about it, he did like watching the girls in the fairy outfits spin around in the bubbles though! Is it just me or does my son look like a baby gap model?
