>No more bedrest!

>I had my weekly appointment yesterday and the OB took me off of my medications and put me on decreased activity. I can definitely tell that the medication was working because I've had lots more contractions since I stopped taking it. They haven't been strong ones at all but they are there. I have a huge fever blister and it is driving me insane. Lucky for me, the nurse at the ob's office called me in something and it is getting better.

Last night, Josh put in the new closet organizer for the baby. I really love it; now I have my work cut out for me. I have to put everything back in there. I was going to do it today but so far I haven't gotten around to it. I did get a lot of it done last night but I have tons of clothes to go through and sort.

I had maternity pictures taken by Jody on Monday and I can't wait to see how they turned out. She takes such amazing pictures. I can't wait for the baby to get here so she can take those too.

This weekend is a big weekend for us. My brother is getting married! Several people from my family are coming into town and I can't wait to see them.

My hospital bag is packed and ready to go. Josh needs to put the carseat in the car and we are all set.

>feeling crafty

>The longer I sit around and do nothing the more bored I get. I decided to start and finish some crafts for the nursery. I recovered a lamp, painted a train and orgainzed some stuff. I won't post pics of the whole train, but you'll get the idea. I need to finish painting the wall letters, but I need pin striping tape first.

The lampshade before.

>lower or not?

>I feel like the baby has dropped a bit. What do you think?

Yesterday my dear friend Ashley took me all over the place so that I could get some things done. (I'm not supposed to drive unless it's a short distance) We went to Wal-Mart, Target and Babies R Us. I got a cute little table for the baby's room, some baskets, a hamper and some other organizational items. I'll take some pics after I clean up the nursery a bit. It's a wreck...again.

>My sweet neighbor

>I have this wonderful, sweet neighbor. Ms. Juanita reminds me of my grandma in more ways than one. She is thoughtful, cooks amazing cajun food and loves to let people know that she cares. She noticed that my car had not left the driveway in a while and she came over to check on me. She was not happy to hear that I was on bedrest.

Today, we had our childbirth class at the hospital. When we got home there was a huge bag on the door. I was excited to see what it was. Ms. Juanita had left it there. She had a granddaughter make me the cutest diaper bag.
