It has begun for us. Waiting for Ezra's arrival. Well it began when we found out that I was pregnant, but now we are anticipating his arrival even more as the time draws closer. Now at 37 weeks and four days it is really getting close. We still have some last minute organizing to do in his room, but that may not get done until he is here. I am suppose to be resting 50% of my day. Which happens sometimes, but a lot of times I feel like being productive and getting some things done around the house and around town. Yesterday I thought I would start out my day doing laundry. So as soon as Becks was out the door to catch the bus I put a load in. Well the hose that drains the washer into the utility sink popped out of the sink during the rinse cycle. And I was right in the other room and saw it pop out. (This same thing happened last Tuesday as well, but I didn't catch it in time and there was 1/2 inch of water in the laundry room!) I went in to put the hose back in the sink and before I knew it I heard my head hitting the floor. I had slipped on the water and my feet went out from under me and I was laying on the floor wondering how I was going to get up and turn the water off as it was now soaking me. I managed to get up after checking to see if I was bleeding and turn off the washer. The hose continued to pop out of the sink and spill more water on the floor a few more times after I had shut off the washer. Until I finally put the hose into the washer and shut the washer door on it! I called the hospital and found out that I needed to come in to be monitored for four hours just to make sure everything was all right with Ezra. Becks was on the bus at the time I called and was still a good 30 minutes away from being at work. Luckily my friend, Allison, was able to meet me at the hospital and keep me company along with her 7 1/2 week old daughter, Annabella. Becks was able to get a ride into the hospital from a co-worker soon after. My doctor came in and ordered some blood tests and wrote a prescription for pain relief. Two pastors from our church came separately and checked in on me and prayed with us which was a true blessing. We are very grateful for our church family! They are amazing! After 5 hours of monitoring and waiting for test results we were allowed to go home! Now I am in a bit of pain and am avoiding the laundry room!! That was one scare I don't care to relive.
In other news...we are getting our new countertops in our kitchen installed tomorrow morning!!! Yeah! No more harvest gold laminate!! We are getting Silestone countertops in the Grey Expo color. So they will look a bit like concrete! We are really excited to get that finished. We will post a picture when the countertops and new sink are installed! It has been a long process this kitchen, but we finally are almost done with this phase.
Not much else going on here. Just enjoying the beautiful spring flowers and bushes that are blooming and smelling so sweet! I love seeing all of the trees in bloom as well! So nice after all of the rain :o)
Well hope all of you are doing well! Until next time.
