I'm finally back

It seems like it has been forever. But I realize it's only been a couple weeks. My computer was fried so I had to wait until my husband found what he considered a "good" deal on a computer. Finally he did, thank goodness.
Well, surprsingly not a lot happened while I was away.. Oh wait, I lost a $500 money order for our rent. That put us back for a while. My baby started preschool, which was easier than I thought it would be ha ha. And I was put on complete bed rest for at least 2 weeks and possibly the duration of this pregnancy. That's a really long stinkin time. My due date as was recently refigured is January 3rd, that's almost 4 1/2 months to be down and after three days I am going insane. I am sick of my room, don't wanna be here anymore. I have found I do feel better when I'm down so I know that's what's best but good golly I wanna get up and fix some stuff. Bobby canned my green beans which was kinda scarey but they needed to get done and she did a really good job. She also did half of my pickles and they look very beautiful. She has been such a big help.
We all have colds too, except for the three youngest kids. Daniel had to stay home from school today.. The rest of us all sound like lungs will be coughed up any minute, and it all just happened overnight. We just woke up two mornings ago with sore throats and it has progressed since then. It's horrible, however on the bright side the baby has been mving alot for the last two days, and that is so exciting cause things could be so much worse. And I realized he doesn't like chocolate. I say he cause I had a dream that it was a boy so we are assuming until it's a girl that it's a boy ha ha. Anyway I stole an m & m from Faith and it just about made me sick well that was a couple weeks ago, and I didn't think about it last night and stole one from Zeke and wham I am sick again. So no chocolate ha ha. Deffinately a boy right??
I have cut out all caffeine, salt and most of my sugar. I am ready to have this baby. I have never tried to be this healthy before and I realize I don't like it ha ha. I try not to eat any processed foods, or frozen from the grocery store, I watch the preservatives and try to eat as much natural stuff as I can. But I want a healthy baby this time, so I guess it's worth the sacrifice right? Anyway, I just wanted to take a few minutes and write a little about what's happened lately......

Hey you :) I haven't been on blogger very much at ALL in the last few months. I've kind of lost a little will to blog. I'm going to try to do better. Anyway, somehow I missed your big news. I actually heard it from someone the other day, and it was the first that I had heard. Congratulations!!! Your grandbaby will have an aunt/uncle younger than them, I think that is really neat!!! Well anyway, I'm happy for you! I miss you guys :) And yes, you are in my prayers.

Here at home we have a sister who has to be down for at least a month or she will miscarry. Last time she was down for about 2 months since she wasn't for sure of the timing of everything. We tried to do our best about keeping her company and doing what we could. She seemed to really have a good mind about it all.

Awww... you've sure got a busy life. I applaud your choice to eat healthy for the baby! May the Lord grant you wonderful health along with your little one growing inside you. Keep up the good work! (too bad about the chocolate!)

I'll sure pray for you about the little one. Glad there's a lot of movement! Sounds like the family has learned well and are doing more than should be expected. Good kids.
