So, I am quite pleased with myself that I was finally about to figure out how to label the post. Yes, I realize that had I just payed attention at the beginning that I would have easily figured it out. That made for an interesting realization.

Mommy is still on bed rest and will be until about the 36th week. So about a month or so more of a non-vertical position and then the Doctor will let her do anything she wants so the baby will come as it will. Michael is still a happy kid for the most part and still loves to have fun with her.
Well, Grandma thought that Michael should have something nice to wear to church. So, Michael has really taken to wearing nice sunday clothes. We figure that this is not bad for him because he wants to wear them. He likes wearing his vest and tie. Here he is before going to Nursery this morning. He was so excited to go. After I got back from Ward Council this morning so I could pick up Michael for Church, he ran to the door and said repeatidly, "I am going to Church." So, we went.
We could call this a pre-mission picture. Michael will pose on the bed occasionally for a picture. I guess that he was in an especially good mood this morning.... After all, it was Sunday.


No other news seems too pressing at the moment otherwise. I am just glad that I finally figured out how to make a label for the post.

Rain and Pain

Well, we have been having a lot of rain and pain inthe last little bit. To start with, the rain. Um, well it rained about 1.5 inches in an hour. That was accompanied by rain on both ends. It started to look like rain when I left for school in the morning. I was in a bit of a hurry to get home from school, so instead of going back to the office after class, I went straight to the car to drive home. It started raining lightly before I got to the car. Half way home, it started pouring rain. The trees offered no relief to the insufficient windshield wipers. We took a picture. This one is out the front door.


Out the back door, the water was coming up to the door. You can see the little ripples in the water there. It is about an inch deep by the pot. It was really cool for us to get to see so much rain.
Now for the pain...
Bed rest as doctor's orders. That's right. Michael, I mean Mom is on bed rest at least until mid-March. The doctors don't want Baby to come too early, and by mid-March Baby will strong enough to handle the outside world.

But Michael is taking the whole bedrest thing fairly seriously! In truth the ward here in Tallahasse have been a great help, especially with friends for Michael to play with. At least once during the weekdays someone will take him for a few hours to play with their children. It is a big help, both for Michael and Mom.


Well, that is all from this part of the world for now. Keep smiling!
