365 Project

So to help me get through my bedrest, I have decided to do a 365 Photo Project. I love this idea, I've been wanting to do one but just haven't started. The fun thing about it is that for the first part of it I have to be extremely creative because I can't leave my couch. I will be on bedrest until I give birth.

365 Photo Project is my new page so you can go and check it out. Here's a couple of photos from that blog.

30 days...

So as of now I'm on strict reclining bedrest. No walking, cleaning, standing, cooking, nothing. The only things I'm allowed to do is get up to pee, go to bed and take a bath, until I give birth to my little boy. I only have 30 more days. I am gonna make the best of it. I do believe (other than the obvious) that I am on bedrest, so that God can continue to teach me patience and to learn to rely on other people. I have a habit of relying on myself. I don't like to ask for help or anything like that. So Kris has given me some scriptures to read while I sit here on my couch for the next month.
Right now I do have a great support system with this whole situation. I hope that now, despite being on bedrest, this pregnancy continues to go quickly. So far, though it has thrown tons of curve balls at me, this pregnancy has gone so fast. I swear I just entered my third trimester and really I only have 4 weeks to go. Wow. I do think it helps that I have a toddler to chase after. Oh no, now I can't go and chase or play in her room with her.  I just made myself sad. It's all for the greater good. When finally he gets here I will be overly joyed with love. I pray that Taylor loves him as much as Kris and I do. It will be such a wonderful thing. I also pray that he is as easy as Taylor was as a baby. I do play to breastfeed again, and if I have the same over abundance of milk I will be sharing with Cassie, as she does not produce milk very well. I also will be trying my darndest to cloth diaper this little boy. I have almost everything I need. There a few that are very much needed I will soon be buying. I can't wait to be completely finished, so all I have to do is wait for him. Ooo I can't wait.
