Sic 'em Bears

Yesterday, Baylor had its season opener. They played the SMU Mustangs.

Kyndall and C showed their support by wearing their Baylor gear to church.

I would have, but I don't have any "fancy" Baylor attire. I did wear my bracelet, but no one really saw it.

Oh well, guess that doesn't matter because the Bears won! They kicked some Mustang hiney. 59-10.

Keep it up boys!

Bed Rest Bucket List

I decided that since I am staring down the barrel of what could be a very long time on bed rest, about 3 months, I needed something to keep me from going insane.

Here is my bed rest bucket list:

- Watch every episode of every season of Grey's Anatomy. (Thank you Netflix)
- Learn to make bows. Yes, I have a 3 1/2 year old little girl. No, I have not figured out how to make bows.
- Learn to knit and/or crochet. (Which is easier?)
- Purchase and master Sims for the X-Box. (I did this when I was on BR with Kyndall on the PS2)
- Do arm curls(while laying down) every other day. I have no upper body strength...

I'm sure there will be things that will be added, but I just know that I need something to do over the next 3 months.

My mom will be here in the next couple of weeks to help take care of things around the house and help keep Kyndall entertained.

My blog entries may become ever fewer and further between since I won't be doing much...

Back on bed rest

Well, I went back to the doctor today, and the appointment went about as expected...

(If you've read my blog or want to read back, you'll know that I was put on bed rest with Kyndall.)

When I went 2 weeks ago, my blood pressure was elevated- 137/86. My doctor doesn't like anything over 140/90. She was also concerned with the fact that I was having braxton hicks. She said something about bed rest, and I think the look on mine and C's face told her we were not expected it at that moment. She said we'd reassess in 2 weeks.

Therefore, today went as expected. My BP was still slightly elevated and there is now traces of protein. She also looked at my BPs over the last 2 weeks and didn't like the way they looked, even after raising my dosage on my meds.

I will be 27wks on Monday Sept. 3. Our first major goal is 36weeks. After that, we'll take it a week at a time.

Pray for sanity, health, and understanding.

Swim lessons

This was the 3rd summer that Kyndall did swim lessons. This was the first summer she did them by herself. The past 2 years have been a "Mommy and Me" type class.

She did pretty well, for the most part, but I really think she would have benefited from another year of the mom and me class. She pretty much refused to put her face in the water or go under, but I think she had fun.



Next summer, we are planning to sign both girls up as soon as we get the email saying they are signing up. Lessons start at 6 months old, so Kynzie should be right at 6 months by the time lessons start.

We have a name!

Arriving(hopefully) sometime near December 3, 2012.
