Feeling like a Hermit!

I just realised today that I have not been out of the house and yard since last Friday! Thankfully my dad called and invited me for sushi for lunch. I feel much better after having gone out for a bit! Plus, I got to eat some delicious raw- fish free sushi which I have been craving for weeks :)

This morning after Matt and Ceili left the house, I was feeling sorry for myself. I was so sad that I can't go to the fair, Taste of Edmonton, or the parade for the fair this year. The fair is one of the special things my dad and I have always done together and we have now added my daughter into that tradition. Last year I took Ceili to the parade and she absolutely loved it. The summer is my favorite season because of all of the festivals and things to do outside and I can barely do any of it this year. Oh well, I just have to think of our baby's and my health. I'll try to focus on next year when I'm sure we can take the two kids to all of the fun festivals!

I got some more scrapbooking done after lunch and am almost caught up! I think that's pretty amazing considering I had just barely finished Christmas when I started this bed rest thing last week.

A couple of days ago I made my appointment for my next ultrasound. I am truly hoping that there has been some change in the placement of my placenta. I'm hoping it has moved up at least a bit. I can't wait to see our little one again too, I'm always concerned about him/her. I wish I could feel regular movement so I know he/she is okay in there.

I check my work e-mail once in a while and noticed an e-mail that was sent out a few days ago. It sounds like they have someone to fill my position at work for the 2 months that I am gone. That makes me very happy because now I know that there will be someone at least trying to get some of my work done which means I (hopefully) won't come back to 2 months of paperwork to do!

Bored to death!

Well, the bleeding has almost stopped (yay!) Let's hope the bloodclot sticks this time and doesn't start up again for quite a while!

I got up with my hubby and daughter this morning at 6:30am to help get her ready & fed before daycare then I had some toast, my prenatal vitamin and went back to bed. I slept until 10:30am! I'm sure all of the moms out there know exactly why I'm surprised, I haven't slept that late in years lol. I have been so exhausted lately, I guess it could be the combination of blood loss and being so lazy.

I am now laying here in bed watching TV and being bored. There was a huge thunderstorm this morning, the sky was orangey- yellow when I looked out! Now it looks just lovely out, it's supposed to be +25 celcius today so it will be a nice one. I'm thinking about hanging out outside in the sunshine for a bit this afternoon. I might as well work on correcting my awful farmer's tan while I'm stuck at home!

I am craving all sorts of things today, I'm sure it doesn't help that I'm watching the Food Network. I want everything from greek salad to slurpees!

I think tonight I will get my hubby to bring my scrapbooking supplies upstairs so maybe I can catch up on my scrapbooking this week. I still haven't finished our Christmas page!
