MIA

Well let's see it has been an eventful weekend to be sure. Saturday is the most interesting so I will tell you about that. Well to begin with it rained all day. What a wonderful blessing that was for us! Around 10am I went to the baptisms of some children in our primary, following that I went to a baby shower for a lady in our ward. On my way from the baby shower, I thought to myself, I can't have a baby today. Weird huh. Anywho, I go home, clean house, take a nap and then call my friend Erin to arrange our plans for the night. So later on we take the kids to McDonald's. Well I pick up Erin and we go watch the movie Annapolis. Good flick by the way. Afterward I go to the bathroom and think I am leaking amniotic fluid. So I call the on call dr and they tell me to go to the hospital. Well we go straight there and they admit me and run some tests. It's about 11:30 pm and Erin, wonderful Erin, stayed with me. Ken and Scott came and gave me a priesthood blessing and then Ken took Erin home. Well the tests came back positive and so they did an ultrasound to see how much fluid I had. I had 18 out of 20 (whatever that means, it was good apparently) so being 2 of 3 of the tests positive, they had to keep me overnight. Fun. So around 1:30 am they move me to my own room and Scott went home to get some sleep. Since there is only so much basic cable you can watch, I went to bed at 3am, then at 4 they came in to give me a shot so if in case I had to deliver the baby, the lungs would mature, I then go back to sleep until 6:30. Well around 11:30 the on call dr comes and they re run the test from the night before. One came back negative and so we were just waiting on the second test. Well at 3pm they came back with my release forms as the other was negative and I could go home. So eventful huh!

Hopefully I will get some rest and get back to my normal life this week.

SO SCARY ASHLEY!!!!! I am glad to see you're home safe and sound and the baby can stay inside Mama much longer! Sounds like we both made unwanted trips to the hospital this weekend!
