Busy weekend

This weekend was going to be busy enough but there have been a few small changes that are making it busier yet!  To start out Wednesday night/Thursday morning we went to the hospital because I was having some serious contractions and since I was almost 36 weeks I didn't know if it was something to be concerned about.  Well... they kept me there all morning, we didn't get home til 6:30.  I wasn't dilated at all, but am still having contractions!  They tried to start an IV but blew 5 of my veins before they got one started.  My poor hands/wrists/arms are all bruised up and are pretty sore... ouch.  Luckily, Bugga did very well in the night, which made the visit less stressful for me!

My older brother Dale just moved into my parents house too... which I wasn't aware he was going to do!  So this week has been recovery time with all his stuff that he tried moving in.  To top it off my other brother Jon will be home on leave this weekend.  Let's get a count of how many people at my parents house so far.

Count: 7

However, we are having our capoeira batizado this weekend and we are housing 4 guests. 

Count: 11

It gets better yet.  My sister is coming over on Sunday for her oldest sons birthday party.  My Mom is making the birthday cake so they will be over in the afternoon to celebrate.

Count: 17 and that's if they only bring their family.

Needless to say, its gonna be a full house!  I did get taken off of bedrest so at least I can help out a little bit.  But I'm still not feeling the greatest.  I hope that baby Lucy can stay in there for as long as she needs to to fully develop.  We want to meet her, but not that badly!  Pray for safety this weekend, and rest!
