Many of you many have heard; as of Monday I was checked into the hospital for the remainder of the pregnancy. That could be weeks or months. Much to the despair of my mental state, longer would actually be better so that we can keep these babies bakin'.I had gone in for my scheduled Perinatologist appointment and well, my cervix just isn't holding 
strong. Baby A wants out! His/her head is pushing down hard so I've got to stay horizontal and be monitored 'round the clock. But how fun is this; I get my own bedside commode. Nope, they don't even want me walking that few extra feet to the bathroom. Hope I haven't offended any of you with my frankness.

My friend Debra stopped by last night after finishing a live shot here in Greenwich (she, too, is a reporter for News 12). As you can see, Debra brought a beaming smile, a gift (which, by the way, it not necessary visitors!), and some great converstation to make time fly. Deb is so sweet!
Then, here's my crazy hubby, who jumped (or should I say "dropped") to the rescue when my ever 
precious lip balm fell under the bed. All you can see are his long, long legs as he maneuvered under the bed. Okay, how much does this look like the Wicked Witch from the Wizard of Oz when she got smooshed by the house? Just kidding Tom!
Too funny. After a few chosen words, he got the lip balm. Yea Tom!
Anyhow, as always, I'm asking for your prayers to keep me pregnant with the babies for weeks and weeks to come. I love phone calls, e-mails, and visits but I don't want anyone to feel obligated! Your kind thoughts alone mean a lot!

I'll definitely keep you and your three little ones in my thoughts & prayers. Keep up the good work and ENJOY the rest, while you can get it. Although it may not seem like "easy" work remaining horizontal >> trust me ... it is!!
Ah, but I look back on the days of bed rest sometimes with pure longing. If only I could grab a nap!! :)
You are in for a wonderful ride!!
I was in and out of the hospital several times before my twin daughters were born. Not fun but necessary. Hang in there and keep those babies cookin'! By the way, I added you to our "bump watch." Hope that's OK.
Thanks so much Jen and Becky for your support! I can't tell you how much it means. Also, thanks for adding me to "Bump Watch". I wasn't even aware of it--- now it gives me somewhere else to burn some time. Thanks much! ;)
