Week 34

Last week was crazy! Addison is ready to make her appearance in this world. Tuesday night I had to stay in the hospital for preterm labor. They put me on a new medication to help control the contractions. I am already 1 cm and 40-50%. I thought I wouldn't be seen again until this Wed. but I ended back up in the hospital Sat. night. We were coming home from Brett's basketball party and were rear ended at a red light by some friends of ours on the basketball team. I had to go in for monitoring for a few hours. I started having contractions again but the medicine finally kicked in toward the end of the monitoring window so we didn't have to spend the night again! Hopefully this week will be much calmer.
As for Brett, basketball ended on a Saturday and baseball resumed the following Thurs. He is not doing the travel team anymore. Instead, he is going to play in Fairhope. He is disappointed but I am relieved. I think it will be much easier with a new baby arriving soon. He is doing very well. Grades are good and he is staying active in sports. Behavior...well, that is getting better with him and Lucy (our cat). I think both have been acting out b/c of the upcoming arrival of Addison. I know he is excited about being a big brother but I'm sure he's wondering how her birth will impact him. I hope everyone is doing well. I will post again on Wed. after my Dr. appt.
