A little Update

So a little update on me and my family...last week I had a fun 24hr stay in the hospital because I was having contractions regularly and they needed to watch me to make sure I didn't go into active labor. They sent me home on some medicine to help control/stop the contractions and put me on bed rest. I'm not allowed to do anything really, not even walk around my home. So my fabulous mother came into town right away to take care of me last week and I'm sure Owen appreciated it just as much because he had someone to play with.

Also, I already knew I had a great ward but I really have an amazing ward. My RS president called me on Friday about something else and I told her what was going on and yesterday I got calls from my visiting teacher and some compassionate service committee members and they have set up babysitters for Owen this week and dinners for me and KC. I hadn't even asked for help and they offered it anyways. I am so blessed to be around such great sisters willing to serve. So, lucky for Owen he gets to go play with people this week instead of having to sit at home with a mom who can't move. I'm so grateful for the help I'm receiving.

Today was the first day that Owen has been gone all day and I just miss his little smile. I know I cant take care of him so it's better that he's somewhere else but I can still miss him, right? So when I sat down to work today I saw this multi-colored pic. Its probably my favorite pic of me and Owen, I have it as my desktop picture. It just made me miss him more but I love that i have this picture to look at all day long.


So then I started looking at more that I have on my computer of me and Owen and found another one I really like. His smile and eyes in this are just the best


So as hard as it is for me to not be able to take care of Owen (and KC) I'm very grateful for all the help we've been receiving. I'll keep you updated on how we're doing. We love you all!
