• We're still alive!

  We're still alive and healthy, thank God. We moved in the middle of April back to where we were living before we moved in with my parents. It's nice to be settled in our own place again.  We're renting one level of a house right now, it's cozy and works fine. I'm just so glad to be in our OWN place again, and God is taking care of us. The landlords are supposed to have a bigger house open up in the next couple of months that should be better for our growing family.

  Chad is interviewing for some positions with the city, and that will help us a lot financially. We're living off of our tax return (and economic stimulus payment!) until he is able to find a good job. I really don't want him to have to go back working low-paying, crazy hour jobs anymore.

  In pregnancy news, I am 30 weeks, 4 days today and we are having another BOY!!!! Our third boy in a row! His name is Nathan Isaac.  

  My preterm labor problems have started and it's so wonderful to have Chad home to help. Yesterday my Dr. put me on complete bedrest, until my next appointment with her on Tuesday. I switched care providers this past week because my midwife was being so rushed and haphazard with my care. My new Dr. is much better and more attentive, I really like her. I don't know why this keeps happening with my pregnancies.  I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I must be doing something wrong to go into preterm labor so early each time. So I'm trying to take it easy, I want to make it at least to 34 weeks, that's when Eli was born. After that, lasting until 35 or 36 weeks would be wonderful. I really don't want him to have to be in the NICU at ALL.

  I have more time to be on the computer now that I'm on bedrest, so I'll try to update more often than once every few months!  Thanks for checking in on me.  More later.
