Growing Babies

Last week when I went to the doctor she was concerned because Charis has a little head and abdomen. Apparently, Drew has a little head but, his markers lined up okay and she wasn't as concerned for him. They both weigh a good amount but, Charis is too little in her measurements for the doctor's liking. In order to try to beef our little girl up I was told to work from home and rest for two weeks. Today I went again and I have gained four pounds in six days, so that is good but we have to wait until next week to measure the babies. That means one more week of home rest.

Today Julie made my day by bringing me delicious Chick-fil-a for lunch! I am so blessed by great friends, family, and work. So many sweet people have prayed for Charis and I feel a peace about things now knowing that. My awesome team at work is coming over tomorrow to bring enchiladas for lunch. I am thankful for the people God has placed in my life. When I called my boss to tell him I had to work from home he prayed on the phone for the babies and told me that it was no problem for me to do that. Thank you for your prayers for our little girl!

Enjoy bedrest. I know it's hard to and there's added stress but it sounds like exactly what you need and it's working. I wish i didn't have to work and i'd come over and watch murder she wrote with you!
