Two Weeks!... And Happy Anniversary to Us!

Today was Bob's and my 6th anniversary, and no doubt it was the strangest one we've ever had. Things got off to a rough start thanks to night full of interruptions.

Thanks to this, I followed breakfast with a two-hour nap. It seemed that the highlight of the day was going to be the fact that my nurse pulled the "anniversary" card to get permission for me to take an actual shower, but following a mellow afternoon, Bob surprised me with a great night. He arrived dressed up and and brought a dress for me to wear along with my favorite earrings. He also scrounged up a candle, turned a towel into a tablecloth and picked up dinner from Houston's. Even though I was still stuck in bed, it was probably the loveliest candlelight dinner we've ever had.

As for health stuff, my contractions remain fairly consistent and we are getting used to being in this waiting game. We're grateful for the past two weeks that little Luke has spent in the womb and know that each day is another blessing.

This Thursday will be a big day as I will hit the 32-week mark and that is also when I will be taken off indocin, one of the meds they have been regularly giving me. So our big prayer as we start Week 3 is that things relax and that we don't need another med to fill the place of the old one! But in general, please continue to pray for God's peace and protection over all of us!
