Been awhile

-
Well, it has been a while since I have blogged, but in my defense, it is because I felt like this.

It has been a pretty busy couple of weeks for our family between the move and the pregnancy. Also, I spent all weekend at the Opryland Hotel chaperoning a youth trip with our church. 

In baby news - I have been put on complete pelvic rest.  I have something called "placenta previa" which is when the placenta is covering the "exit" - so to speak.  Because of this I can't lift anything heavier than a gallon and milk and I have to be really careful.  This means that I can't lift weights anymore - which is a pretty big bummer for me.  I am still walking, but it just isn't the same.  Also, I am probably going to have to have a c-section to avoid the risk of hemorrhage. There is a chance that it can still move, but I am not going to get my hopes up. 

We have gotten through our home inspection (pretty easy) and the home inspection for our new home (doesn't look too bad), so we are one stop closer to finishing this process. I guess I will start boxing thing up this weekend. 

Finn's basketball pictures came in this week.  I love this picture!

We also had Spring pictures at school last week.  Finn was so excited when he realized that he got to wear "normal" clothes.  However, he got really upset when he realize that he couldn't wear his basketball gear.  Finn hates wearing jeans. 



This week we learned that Finn placed the highest in the Kindergarten class for reading skills.  We were very proud of him.  As a prize we let him download Minecraft on his tablet.


This morning was "Wacky Wednesday" for Sam.  Even though you can't tell from the picture, Sam is wearing my leg warmers. 



Sam's class at school for Wacky Wednesday. 

I have posted a few pictures from the HCA website.

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
