Same old Same old

Well I think we have finally figured out what we are doing for living arrangements. We will be living in Pleasant Grove with Matt's parents while Matt is student teaching in SLC. The SLC house we were planning on living in just didn't work out like we hoped.

Matt is enjoying teaching and being in the school. He has taken over one subject and soon will be a few more to that. He is always coming home with stories of his students. It is good to see him enjoying this so much.

I am still having contractions but I am getting used to them. My next doctors appointment is this tues so we will see how things are going. Other then that nothing new really happening. Just waiting for Zeke's arrival.

Oh, my family is having a baby shower for me Nov. 8 if you are interested. I will try and get a copy of the invitation to put on here. If you have any ?s let me know.

Moving

So tomorrow is the big day. It feels weird that it is already here. The big question is will we be ready to move??? And as of now I cannot give a definite answer. lol. We have most things packed but there is still more. And also we need to figure out what goes to the storage unit and what needs to stay out.

So our living arrangements are still kinda up in the air. We are hoping that by the end of next week we can move into Matt's parent's rental house. But we are still waiting for the previous occupant to vacate. So until we can settle in there were will be at the parents' homes. Matt starts student teaching on Monday at JMS, but since it is UEA next week he will only be there for three days. Then he has to come take his last test here on campus!!! All that should be left is the months of student teaching.

Everyone keeps asking about the contractions and how I am doing. Well, they are still pretty regular but the doctors don't seemed to concerned right now. I think part of it is that I am switching doctors. Since my old doctor is not getting the money for the birth of the baby he really isn't interested in dealing with me now. But that is ok I have an appointment next Tuesday with my new doctor. So we will see how things are then.

Most of the time I am doing just fine just tired of and my stomach is sore from all the contrations and the continual growth of Zeke. He is starting to really develope his muscles. All along the top of my stomach feels brused inside from his kicking. I am starting to understand the pregnaunt waddle, I keep catching myself doing it and just have to laugh at myself. Also I never knew how good ice chips were till recently. That is my favorite thing to snack on right now. The biggest problem is that we do not have any ice trays so I only get it when we go to a resturaunt or if Brittzy brings me some from here house.

So that is what a contration is!

Well Last night I learned what a contraction felt like. I started noticing them about 7:30 as I was driving home. First I had a sharp pain in the top of my tummy. By the time I got home (3-5 min later) I noticed that the contraction we really contractions. At first I just thought it was the baby pushing out hard but after some advise from Morgan I figured it out. After 15-20 min of contractions every 5 min I called the hospital. I was told to wait 30 min more. If it was still happening to come in.

So Matt and I stayed in the hospital last night. At first they were coming pretty regularly and I was starting to dilate. They were able to stop the contractions and get everything stable. I got home about 10:30 this morning and have slept most of the day. My doctor recommended that I not go back to work till at least on Monday. This will hopefully give me some time to get in some much needed rest.

But since we are moving next week that means there is a lot of packing still needing to get done. I had already started but now I worrying about all that is left. There are some RS sisters coming over to help tomorrow hopefully this will help things out.

Also to top it all off it looks like Matt is coming down with something. I think the stress of the cont rations and the stress from trying to finish up school so he can start student teaching early is no help to the matter.
