Only 16 more weeks to go!

Happy December everyone! Today is a great day. It is the first day of December and my first big milestone. I'm 24 weeks along today! A few weeks ago, I didn't think I would make it this far. Because of all of your prayers, I did!

Today is also the first day of winter and it's beginning to look like Christmas in my room. Sydney brought me up this cute little tree along with some homemade decorations. I got moved to a new room again. It is much bigger and has a wall of windows. It's very private too. We are all unpacked and settled in now. Everything has it's place and it is starting to feel homey. I have lots of beautiful cards, balloons, and flowers adding cheer to my room.




Adam and I had a date night the other night. We ordered Pizza Hut and rented "Grown Ups". It was fun. :)
Here's a cute little story. When I switched hospitals, Sydney walked in with "a baby" (her doll) in her shirt and told the nurses she needed to stay too. :) They are really great with her. They "admitted" her and even gave her a hospital bracelet to put on. She is quite entertaining. :)


And here's the update on me. My contractions have almost stopped entirely now. This new medicine I'm on for them, Procardia, is working really well and I don't feel any side effects from it. Sebastian is very active and is doing really well according to the monitors. I have settled into a routine now and the nurses have me on the same schedule every day. My morning sickness is finally gone now, too. The only complaint I have is bad body aches. I have a physical therapist that comes in to do bed exercises with me, but everything is sore from just laying here for so long. If my contractions don't start again and I don't have any more bleeding, my Dr is thinking of letting me go home in 4 weeks and finish my bedrest there. That would be an AWESOME Christmas present! Happy December everyone!
