Swerves left, ducks right...and fakes the pass...

Well, the babies are healthy, but they are still in mamma's belly!
We have made it to December 1st, an landmark day for insurance and another day of growing babies.
Around 11:30 or 12, the contractions finally decreased and stabilized. Ash rested a little bit and I was able to get 3 or so hours of sleep at the hospital. Since she has not slept well this morning, it will most likely be another very rough day for her. She has been on the monitors since 11 am Thursday and is still on them. Around 5 she was moved back downstairs to Labor & Delivery; another very tiny and awkward room. Hopefully everything stabilizes and she can be moved upstairs for a few more days...yet Ashlee is so tired and ready to be done. Her whole body hurts, the headaches are dreadful and the double-vision and nausea are haunting.

Almighty God, these are Your babies and Your mommie. Keep them safe, healthy and strong. Bring peace and comfort and the strength needed to 'make it.'
