3 more days! Please 3 more days! Hold on Brinley.

So as a pregnancy update I should probably tell you all I am back on bed rest. Thursday night I had a very ruff night with contractions. About 3 in the morning I sat up in bed and knew this was trouble. Of course being the contracting person that I am I never know if I should take it seriously. By morning though I thought it would be best to call the doctor. I went in and discovered that indeed I am dilating. Because the odds of her needing some type of oxygen at this point are still higher the doctor felt we should give bed rest a try again. The risks are gone at 37 weeks which is a little over a week for me, so I should not be on bed rest for long.

Day 2 of bed rest has not been great because I am still really contracting hard and I am noticing more signs that I am dilating. So at this point I am really hoping I can make it past Tuesday because that is Bennett's birthday and I would love these kids to at least be 12 months apart. Not only that, Bennett gets overlooked enough please let me be there for his birthday! All joking aside, I am a little scared and am praying hard that she will get here safe and healthy. Keep our little girl in your prayers!

One other piece of news. Dallin was offered a wonderful job this week in Salt Lake City and we have decided to take it. We have been working like mad to quickly get the house ready to sell and hope to have it on the market very soon. He starts work June 15th so we hope to move sometime the week before. We are excited about this big change but also sad to say goodbye to so many good friends we love here. If you know anyone looking send them our way!

We will keep you posted as time goes by.

I hope that she holds on for you! Being prego is hard enough so I hope this is not adding any stress to it!
