A Long Overdue Update

Well, I know it has been a while since I have updated, so here it goes.

I am STILL pregnant...hopefully not too much longer though! I went into preterm labor at 33 weeks and was on bedrest for 2 weeks, and modified bedrest for 1 week (what does that mean, modified, really?!!)...Between Josh, my mom, and my mother in law, I was able to stick pretty good to the bed rest regimen. Everyone was so sweet and helpful! At first Aiden had a hard time not being with me 24/7, but now he just waves and says "BYE Momma!" hehe! I think he's gotten used to the idea of going!

I am currently 38 weeks and ready! Everyday I am hoping this will be the day. I don't get a ton of sleep anymore, not only because I have to get up to go to the restroom about 3 times a night, but because every contraction I have makes me think that maybe I'll be going into labor and I'm too excited to sleep. That excitement catches up with me around 4am everytime!

Aiden is getting soooo big and talking like crazy! His big thing right now is, "I do it!" He is terribly independent! It really is a good thing, but can lead to some serious frustration on his part when its something he just can't do. He has learned that "Your Welcome" goes with "Thank You" and I must say its too cute to hear him say it. His language that we don't completely understand still seems to run the majority of his vocabulary though. He will repeat just about anything, and even more so if his cousin Gavin is asking him to.

Josh has been busy between work and scouts, and man does scouts keep him busy!!! He is wonderful at what he does for these boys and he truely cares for them! They just recently went on a 20 Mile hike!!! I can't even fathom the thought of walking ALL DAY LONG! They started at 6am and finished around 6pm. Way to go Guys!! I think I am in the clear to have a baby at this point, all of the big scouting events are done for at least a couple weeks...I think...hehe!
