I have Christmas pictures and other stuff to post, but I haven't been able to sit at my desktop computer to get it done because I get sick and dizzy when I don't have my feet propped up. I'll try to get Ben to help me with it when he has some time. However, he is now back to work and trying to keep everything together here at home while I am on bedrest.

To keep things short, Ben and I were watching a movie Saturday night when I suddenly felt very dizzy and on the verge of passing out. I called my doctor and she said to eat something and go to bed. If things weren't better on Monday, she wanted me to call her office even though she would be out. Of course, she told me to head to the ER if things got worse. I was able to rest and make it through the weekend, but Monday morning I was still struggling with the dizziness so another doctor mine works with had me come in for some tests. It looked like I might be developing preeclampsia so I am on bedrest this week and have an appointment with my doctor on Monday to see how things are going. This little guy might be coming sooner than we expected. We'll keep you posted.
