bed rest in hospital

Elena has spent the last day on bed rest in the hospital. We went in Friday morning and they kept her last night and are going to keep her tonight. It looks like the baby is going to come out sooner rather than later and every day counts. She had the steroid shots about a week ago so thats a good help for baby's lungs. We're really hoping that they'll be far enough along so he can stay in the Eisenburg building where Elena is and not transferred to St. Mary's across town like with Olivia.

Olivia and I have been keeping the house going. My dad came up on Thursday and we worked on the basement flooring. We put in some OSB panels with plastic cones on the bottom to get the carpet off the floor and help with moisture. Hopefully this will keep the basement warmer and the new carpet will be softer and ligher to brighten up the basement. We got most of it done except the hardest row. This stuff is neat in that it is tounge and groove and just pushes together.

I hear Olivia messing around in the kitchen so better end this post.
