Good Updates

First off:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY DADDY!

Today the Dr had me come in for a non stress test and they wanted to just run one more test since there weren't huge contractions but a few little ones. The test they ran doesn't mean a whole lot if its positive but if its negative there is 0% chance that I will have the baby in the next two weeks. Great news...it was negative! So for the next 14 days I am in the clear. My Dr said that I can be doing normal light activity. I cant mop my floor on my hands and knees but I can do things like cook dinner.

With things still up in the air I think the kiddos will probably end up going to CA for a couple of weeks and that should get me even a little further! I really love my family. When I first heard the bad news I called and let my parents know and I was talking to my Mom and she said that my sis in law Kate and my bro Brian would be willing to take the kids for a little bit and they would be willing to come up and stay with me and take the kids to CA and I just felt so bad. My moms response was, "Honey, were family!" My Dad beeped in so I switched over to talk to him and he said the same thing. That they will do what needs to be done and when I said, I know but I feel bad. He responded with, "we're a family." It really touched me and I'm so grateful. After everything they did to help with Caleb's pregnancy and now with Beckham it just makes me appreciate my parents even more...and makes me realize that you never really stop being a parent! And Kate and Brian are troopers for being willing to have 5 kiddos in their house!

As for a Davis update the super kiddo is 100% potty trained...only if naked at our house. If you put underwear on him its kind of a different story! He still does good but he cant help but go just a little bit in his underwear. My goal is to get him potty trained in the next few weeks so if he goes to CA he will be okay to go in underwear. We will see though! Hes amazing!

go davis! i can't even picture little kam using the toilet. he still looks down and acts surprised when he starts peeing in the bath.:) good luck with everything; we're praying for little Beckham to cook a bit longer. that's good about the next 2 weeks though. will you have the test again when the 2 weeks are up? ~lis

Yeah for Beckham! And you know I'll help Kate out if she's got all the kidos.

Guess what? Can you believe that I finally gave in and got the internet! I am so excited! I really have missed looking on your blog and seeing fun pics. I love your family pictures. What a cute family! Congrats on getting Davis potty-trained so quickly! I'm impressed! That is very good news from the doctor today. Wish I lived closer so your boys could come stay with us.....we'll be in touch. yah!

We are so excited to have a visit with the boys. I'm having fun planning sleeping arrangements and night lights and fun cousin things. We are all family and would do anything for you.

Families can be together forever, That's Heavenly Father's plan. We had better hold up one another because no one else is supposed to do what family does. That's what makes a great family and we are so happy to help out in any way we can. I'm very patient with potty training, but I hae a feeling Davis will want to show us what a big boy he is.

Hey, tell your dad I said Happy Birthday! And hooray for good news from the doc! That is so great! Keep that little guy cookin' as long as possible. I remember when you were in hospital with Caleb...and we all know you don't need that again. Keep me posted!
