My boys and I just returned from a very wonderful 2 week visit to Utah. I drove there and back by myself. Jorge missed us so much and it was really hard being apart. I forgot my camera cord so I just decided to take a break from the computer and enjoy our time there. I was deathly ill the first week we were there (and the week before that) but my doctor called in an antibiotic for me and I finally started feeling like myself again. Nicolas decided he didn't need or like sleep while we were there so I became physically and emotionally exhausted dealing with him and fighting to get him to sleep, I'm hoping we can get him back to normal very soon. It was nice being home last night and letting Jorge join in on the hour of crazy, screaming, out of control 2 year old fun! He was great and still happier then ever to have us home and I enjoyed the break. I received a call from my doctor shortly after I got there and he said after looking at my ultrasound the baby looks fine but I have placenta previa. I found out at my appointment today it is a partial coverage which is good because it has a higher chance of moving. I will get an ultrasound in a month to see if it has moved at all. We're hoping and praying it moves so I don't have to have a c section or go on bed rest so I don't bleed. I'm having a hard time not running which is something the doctor has outlawed (amongst other things) I feel the pounds packing on! I am used to running 6 miles or more a day, so it is killing me. I was able to run up until the day before I had Nicolas, so I'm pretty disappointed, but I'll do whatever I have to do to have a healthy baby. So other than all of this wonderful stuff we did enjoy our trip. We didn't get to see as many friends and do everything we would of liked, but it was nice to relax and enjoy my family more than anything! I'm just hoping that next time I can find some good deals on airline tickets, that is a very long drive with 2 crazy boys! I'll post pictures of some of our fun adventures later, right now I'm unpacking and repacking for our trip to Disneyland with my parents tomorrow!

Glad you had a good trip and that the baby is doing okay. I can't believe you could run while you were pregnant. I could barely walk with out peeing my pants :) Hope everything goes well with the next ultra sound.

Glad you are feeling better. Hopefully you will be able to be active again soon. This last one was the first one that I worked out with and it made a big difference. I worked out until I had 6 weeks left and was on bedrest. Have fun in Disneyland.

Busy, busy, busy! I'm glad you found out it's only partial; see - there's hope:) You'll be fine! And I'm sure you'll be up and running in no time!
