bed rest

Elena came home today from the hospital. She's on bed rest til birth so this is bound to be fun.
Olivia and I went to her room around 11:30 and left around 3:30. Guess how many doctors/specialists/tests/midwives we had? Yea, its a nice round number. Finally Elena said "Lets just go." On the answering machine when we came home was a fresh message from the midwife saying that she just missed us. Super.

I spent the evening hoping for a good Orange bowl of USC vs OU. Number 1 vs 2. great game, eh?
nopers. was a major blowout like 55-19. USC just showed up and didn't stop. Oh well.
So I ripped up all the carpet in the basement and scraped up the pad. I'm going to order some carpet tomorrow for it so we can use the basement more. Right now its all in a pile that I'm going to have fun tomorrow hauling out.
