Okay, so I have a few minutes now. Really, I have a lot of minutes. I have purposefully been resting a lot. I try to be pretty up beat about things on my blog, but every once in a while a little less sunny realness has got to come through. I'm putting myself on self imposed bed rest. With my last two pregnancies, when I started having any spotting, I could just take a good nap and it stopped. So I'm finally realizing that means I need to be on somewhat bed rest so I don't do that at all. Then I talked to my mom today. She is concerned because I did have some spotting on Friday morning. I went and took a nap directly after Dan left I slept from eight-thirty to one in the afternoon. I've never done that in my life. When I talked to my mom today, she explained to me that she was on complete bed rest her entire pregnancy because of spotting. I either didn't know that or I think most likely forgot that info. She was also on bed rest for two weeks with my brother, Brandon. So, that is enough reason for me, especially with moving to NC in our near future. :( I need to rest a lot now. I'm not much of a napper, so I think I will need to get a bunch of books to read. Last week I watched about twenty episodes of Bones, a show I highly recommend. I usually despise the murder type shows (and am still disgusted by Law and Order special victims unit) but this one is a lot lighter and more scientific.

One of the things though that has been on my mind during this pregnancy is that I feel like I have become a professional first trimesterer. The accumulation of eight months of being in the first trimester, I've read so much that there isn't anything new to read. I do admit I'm tired of the pictures of the week by week babies on the Baby Center where once I loved it. I'm just a little sad I'm not able to enjoy this all more. I do cling to the verses I love and remember the goal and that helps a lot. Satan is crafty and my flesh is week so its easy to get stuck in the here and now worries and not the hope I can have for tomorrow. Any how, I just wanted to share that with you because it has seemed like a big deal at least to me.

I am praying for the baby to stay in there longer, like until its due date. ((((((HUGS))))))))

Get Dan to go buy you the Mark of the Lion trilogy by Francine Rivers. You will love them and they are so encouraging and full of God's grace in times of hardship. Keep looking towards the Son. Love ya, April

The murder shows are CSI and Law and Order Special Victims Unit. They are two different shows.

I'm with April! I love The Mark of the Lion. My local library has them, so you might be able to check them out. If not, I own them. I could send them to you. :)
