11.3

Just got a call from the birth center and my iron test from yesterday came back at 11.3!! They still want me to take it easy through the weekend -- but I am not as restricted to the bed. I'm thinking that I'm gonna lay low until Friday and then start getting a little more active. I will be 37 weeks in a few days so I really don't think they are gonna turn me down if I go into labor. I'll have to run this by Tony to see what he thinks, but he'll probably be okay with it.

Anyway -- that is the most exciting news I have had in awhile. Thanks everybody for praying that the results would come back today and that they would be high enough. So exciting!!

Oh -- and just below is the cutest thing. I borrowed the link from a friend's blog (thanks Tara!)and had so much fun turning our family into elves. I hope it gives you a laugh. Kaiya was cracking up when she saw herself as an elf. Money Bags is still mad at me. :)

I didn't know you guys had decided on the name Kaleb- I'm out of the loop these days. : ) Love the name! It has also been a while since I checked your blog! Congrats on 37 weeks. I'm excited you are going to get to deliver in the water- hoping it is quick for you this time like last time and you make it to the water. : ) P.S. Sarah and Adam are expecting, she's 3 mo along. Thinking of you! Love all the new pics.
