841 S. Poplar was a dream come true yesterday. I was discharged from the hospital and arrived at my own house yesterday afternoon. It truly is a dream to be at home, even if I am on bedrest!
I had not been outside in 15 days--those who know me know how much I love the outdoors. I took one great big breath of fresh air while I was waiting for my getaway car (AKA my mom's Explorer) to pick me up at the hospital entrance. Then, I had a lunch date at Panera Bread with my mom. A fresh turkey sandwich and Dr. Pepper was just what the doctor ordered!! We made it home to a sleeping Carson. I tried to wake him up to no avail. So, instead, I sat and watched him sleep on the couch from the recliner. Then, my mother in law went to pick Mackenzie up from school. The look on her face when she saw her brother sleeping on the couch with the TV on...she was trying to figure out why her Grandma Joyce left Carson home by himself...was PRICELESS. But, even more PRICELESS was her face when she realized why Carson was left home while Grandma went to get her....HER MOM WAS HOME!! I got the biggest hug EVER! And, then Mackenzie tried to wake her brother up by telling him that "Mommy's home!". He rolled over and looked right at me and rolled back over like it was just a dream....and then, popped his little head up and noticed it really was his mom at home. He came running into my chair and just cuddled for probably 2 hours!!
Life is so precious! And, my family (immediate and extended) are amazing! I am so grateful to be home....it is hard sitting back and not doing anything though! But, I must keep this baby in for 3 more weeks (AT LEAST)!!!
Life is too busy for all of us to have any more drama.....Chris is commuting to Ankeny, IA and Wichita, KS this week alone, Mackenzie has a dance recital, I have multiple doctor's appointments over the next few weeks, Mackenzie and I have a Tea Party at school, Mackenzie and Chris have a Dad's Picnic at school, and Carson gets to be Carson!!!! So, Baby C#3 YOU NEED TO STAY PUT---we are anxious to meet you but not quite yet!!!!
One last hospital pic.....until a baby arrives!!! Aren't they the best lunch dates?
All 3 of my babies in one pic--Baby C#3, you made the photo! We don't need a full family photo for a few more weeks....and we will add Daddy, too!!!
