Things that boredom brings
















So since I am still on bed rest I have been trying to waste the time with projects. My mom suggested knitting so I thought, "What the heck, I'll give it a try!" So for the past few days that's what I have been trying to do. The first project, a scarf, was a total bust! I gave up after way too many mistakes and gave it to my dog Jane to play with. The next attempt is a baby blanket, which is shockingly going really well! As I promised those few people who are doubting my skills here are pictures to prove it! I apologize for the way I look in the pictures, but seriously, who wants to get all dolled up to sit in bed or on the couch all day long. My hair is a mess and I look like a whale! I am also about to start a scrapbook for the Addison. I figure I have all the time to do it now since I will have no time afterward! Anybody have any other suggestions? TV, movies and video games are just not cutting it anymore!

Bedrest


So I had another trip to the hospital today because of some pretty intense cramps. Once again they monitored me for a little while and said that I am not contracting (which is good), but since I keep having cramps every once in a while, my doctor decided to put me on bed rest until Addison is born. I was pretty shocked and was nervous about telling work that I wouldn't be able to come back until after she is born. So for now I guess that I will be catching up on all of our movies and trying to figure out a way to spend my time other than being on the computer or watching tv for the next three months. At least everything looks ok and this is just precautionary.
