The last 2 weeks

* Boy or Girl????
Well, not much has been happening here in the Olson house, but I thought I would post a few tidbits of news. After my experience in the hospital with pre-term labor, everything has been fine. I have had no contractions and I am still only dilated to 1 and less effaced than before. All good news my doctor says. I just passed 35 weeks yesterday and am out of any danger zone so I was able to stop my meds and pick up with normal activity. Thank goodness! I am not one for sitting still so I am up on my feet once again. Now that all of that has happened, I am anxious for this baby to arrive. It is killing me not knowing if it is a boy or girl and as cute as Avery's nickname "burrito" is, I am ready to start calling him/her by his/her real name. (Yes, we are keeping those a secret too!)

I needed something to keep my mind off of having the baby so I finally got my sewing machine out and started using up all my fabrics. I made 6 bags, one is not quite finished though. I made 2 trick or treat bags for my neice and nephew, a new diaper bag for me (the green paisley) and 3 others I have no idea what to do with. I will probably save them for gifts I suppose. I also jazzed up some burp cloths for the new kid. It is fun to finally have the time to make some fun stuff again.

Jaron is back in full swing at Harker as football has started. He worked over 60 hours this week. Needlesss to say, he is exhausted. He also taught 2 CPR classes on top of everything else. This week should be a little better as the volleyball team is in Hawaii, so he does not have to go in as early as he did this last week.

Avery is active as ever and has been having fun despite the fact her mom could not do much with her these past 2 weeks. One of her favorite things is making caves and tunnels with blankets and pillows. She has developed quite the imagination. I love watching her!
