Today marks the 30 count down until we're free from the Marines!!! (Pause for applause). We are SO excited! Not that it hasn't been a total blast (cough) but we're very excited for Rob to start working as a civilian and actually have some leverage over where we live and all that stuff.
Additionally, little Rockstar has been keeping our undivided attention. Back to the hospital we went on Friday...and again on Saturday with at least 4 contractions per hour. Laura (best sister in the world) and Rob hung out with me playing cards and eating Subway sandwiches while the doctors tried to figure out why Rockstar is in such a hurry. They finally resorted to that stupid shot in the arm (the same one I got at 22 weeks) to stop the contractions. It stops them temporarily, and (bonus) makes you feel like a crack addict...all jittery and shaky - so I've read. Anyway, so the plan is to NOT go into labor for at least two more weeks (34 weeks should keep us out of the NICU) and I'm on modified bed rest for the next four days to make sure we're all good.
Hope you're all having as much fun as we are. I'm sure Rob loves that I'm in that 'nesting' stage and I can't do anything but sit on the couch and dictate a 'honey do' list. Muahahahaha!

Hang in there!! You guys are in our thoughts and prayers! Sounds like Little Rockstar can't wait to meet you! I know it must be so hard to sit still and feel helpless! Just let Rob take care of you. It sounds like he is already doing a great job of that!
You need to be the Queen while you can so just take it easy - it won't be long and Princess Anna will have you on your toes:) Hope you feel better soon - Love Mom
now that's my kind of nesting phase! i hope that little girl stays in there longer! my little guy needs to stay in for at least 2 more weeks too... chuck is leaving for a week-long trip to turkey this coming saturday (LONG story) and i'll be royally pissed if i have to have this kid by myself!
enjoy your rest, and no spicy foods!
Fun times!! Let me know if you need anything at all. You have ALL my prayers for staying out of the NICU.
