fears came true...

So I'm on bedrest now. I prayed this wouldn't happen for many reasons. Financial being at the top of my list, but there's no choice. I went to the doctor this afternoon and after the fetal monitoring, sonogram and internal, I'm at home. Everything looked fine, but he's measuring small. Only the 26th percentile, so she says I need to be at home, stress-free and off my feet. And since I've had a couple other problems, she wants to make sure he stays in there a little longer.

I have my sub plans all ready to go. My long-term sub is thankfully finishing up her student teaching and is able to be in my room the next two weeks. I feel better about leaving my kids with someone who will teach, rather than just baby-sit.

I'm not sure what to do tomorrow with all my time. She told me I could be up if I'm changing rooms, going to the bathroom, showering, eating. So, I'm thinking a little Today show, read a little, facebook, catch up on my DVR'd shows (Chelsea Lately, Biggest Loser, Cake Boss), maybe a movie? I've thought about sewing a little b/c that doesn't require me to be on my feet, just sitting there. We'll see.

On another note, we got a new car. We went to the dealership Saturday morning bright and early. We were greeted in the parking lot by a woman carsalesperson. I kinda brushed her off and told Sam I don't know about this. How horrible of me I know! I've never met a woman selling a car! We ended up narrowing it down between a Camry Sport and a Highlander. We went with the Camry. I just love it. It's sporty, but will fit kids, it's safe and gets awesome gas mileage. And, we ended up loving our car sales woman. She was personable, not pushy at all and we plan to buy our next car from her!

I'm off to bed to get ready for my big day tomorrow!
