Today is a very special anniversary for me. One year ago today the saga of my 3 months of bed rest began. I can’t believe it has been a whole year. I guess I can believe it, since it’s true.
In honor of this day, Rachel and Gabi decided to conspire to deprive me of rest, and both girls were awake before 6:30 a.m. To make matters worse, I hadn’t slept very well last night. It all worked out fine, because both girls proceeded to crash at about 9:30. Gabi woke up at about 11:30, and Rachel woke up at about 12:00. So after all was said and done, I had a peaceful morning (although we were going to go to the library for story time, but since they were asleep, we didn’t go).
So anyway, happy anniversary to me. (And what I wouldn’t give for a week of bed rest now!)
Quick funny story about Rachel. She found a couple of 2 lb dumbbells. She brought them upstairs and proceeded to do a little weight lifting. She counted out her reps as follows. Four, five, sick, eight, nine, eight, four, five sick, sen, eight, nine, ten. I wished so bad I was video taping her, but if I would have pulled out the camera she would have stopped, and I was really enjoying watching her.
Noelle, you are such an amazing mom!
Hard to believe it was a year ago I was heading out to visit you. . .wow, time passes fast, and I bet Rachel can hardly even remember that time when her momma was stuck in a hospital bed. You are an awesome mom!
