Day 50 of bed rest... 22 weeks 3 days pregnant

Sorry for my late post. Spent most the day outside after my doctors appointment.

Doc appointment went well. At least 2 more weeks of bedrest for sure. Maybe longer.

I'll write more tomorrow. Tired gal tonight :)

Thanks everyone!

Day 46 of bed rest...21 weeks 6 days pregnant

Rainy, soggy, and chilly day today here in Evansville.

Had a great lunch with my friends, Laurel and Cari...and their daughters, Alice and Caroline. Yummy Chic-fil-a and great conversation with two terrific women! Thanks, ladies!

Went to the OB doc, Dr. Reisinger, today. Everything is going good. I'm measuring a little big...could have a big baby on our hands :) Head back for ultrasound on Monday with Dr. Turnquest so we'll see :) Staying on bed rest for now :)

Maybe planning a short trip to Florida to see my mom and dad. We'll see if that works out. Bed rest in the sun sounds awesome!

I get to go to breakfast for my Dad next week when he's inducted into Evansville's Business Hall of Fame. I'm excited I get to but I have NOTHING to wear :) I'll figure something out.

So excited to see the nursery ideas tomorrow!!!!

Appreciating life, family, friends, and love today! Thanks to y'all!

Day 45 of bed rest... 21 weeks 5 days pregnant

Our friends, The Hayes Family, sent us an edible arrangement (pictured) from Colorado today :) Yummy!

Got up at 7am today which is a little usual for this gal on bed rest. I didn't even take a nap. Hope that means I will sleep well tonight.

Today was a day that I really didn't do much, but the day pasted by so fast! My sister, Kathy, brought me lunch. So good to see her. Laurel and Cari are coming for lunch tomorrow.

Head to the doctor tomorrow. Always love opportunities to get out of the house. I actually will be getting dressed tomorrow :)

I watched a movie this morning... Soul Surfer. It's the story of Bethany Hamilton who lost her arm to a shark while surfing . I know my hormones have a lot to do with it... but I cried a lot :) It was a good movie.

Thankful for all of you!

Day 44 of bed rest...21 weeks 4 days pregnant

Windows open day again! Even sat outside all afternoon absorbing some Vitamin D. It felt so good. I'm so enjoying this weather. If only it can stay this way!!

Rita cleaned today! Love when she cleans... the house smells so fresh and looks terrific!

Still praying for a good reports at my doctors appointments on Thursday and Monday! Any good news would be great!! It's time for good news!!

Hoping to get ok'd to go to a breakfast next week. It's for my dad and others being inducted into the Business Hall of Fame here in Evansville!!

So excited to start finalizing the plans for the nursery on Friday. Have lunch plans with friends everyday the rest of this week too. I'm such a lucky gal!

Blessings to all you! Thank you!!

Day 43 of bed rest... 21 weeks 3 days pregnant

Got to meet with our interior designer, Marjorie, on the nursery today! So excited! We picked colors and the crib. Meeting again Friday to start finalizing. Can't wait to show you all when it's done.

I have felt hungry all day today! I can't seem to get full. Guess this baby is growing. My belly sure shows it. I will do pictures again soon.

Head to our OB doctor on Thursday. Hope our appointment then and Monday gives us some kind of idea on if there is an end to bed rest! I pray there is!

Great visit with Jacob's mom this past weekend. Still loving friends for lunch or visits! Let me know if you have time. Email me at hollykappa@gmail.com.

Thankful for all of you1

Day 40 of bed rest... 20 Weeks 7 Days Pregnant

Woke up this morning not feeling so great about the approaching weather. I can't stand tornados. They really scare me. Glad we have a house now with a basement. I feel much safer. Our house I grew up in in Henderson, KY had a cellar. That was a room below the basement. Would love one of those, but I don't think that's a common room in many houses :)

I went to the basement around 12 Noon and updated my sister via text message often because she was in her bathroom with my niece and nephew and couldn't see the TV. The north side of town got it way worse than my side (the east side). We had rain and a little wind. Heather, my sis, heard lots of hail and other noises. She and her family are safe. I said lots of prayers!

Jacob's mom arrived despite driving through all the weather craziness. Thank goodness she is safe and sound.

Jacob went to our house in Henderson to check on it because a tornado was reported near Zion and Spotsville (very close to our house). Evidently we lost a shutter, but things are ok there too! By the way, if you know of anyone looking for a gorgeous home in Henderson... here's a great one!

Enjoy the weekend! I'll be heading into my 21st week of pregnancy :) Appreciating all of you! Praying for all affected by recent storms!

Day 39 of bed rest... 20 weeks 6 days pregnant

Windows were open today! I took a nap this morning while enjoying the fresh air. I hope we don't have severe storms tomorrow. Everyone be careful!

Terrific night tonight! Jacob came home before his event tonight so I got to see him for a little while. My Aunt Jan and Aunt Janie came over for dinner with me. We had a great time reminiscing! I love my family.

My friend Adrienne booked her flight today to come visit in April! She's coming from North Carolina. I can't wait!! Jacob's mom is coming this weekend to visit!

Great day on bed rest today!

Thankful for all of you!
