So I wanted to post about CLBI but I knew it wouldn't be fair if I didn't update you about my sister first.
Carolyn and I are living in Coquitlam right now. She is on bed rest and is getting bored but is managing to stay happy. The only time she is negative is rare and it is usually about my clothing or my lack of waxing my eyebrows. Like I really care what they look like right now I hardly leave the house. Anyways it is going well. Right now it looks like I will be back in Camrose in less than 10 days that is as long as everything goes smoothly and she is able to be transferred to Trail or isn't going into labour as I am leaving for the airport. She talked to her midwife on the phone and she thinks the baby will be born pretty soon. She is dilated (2cm), almost completely efaced(sp?), and she has a short cervix so it will most likely be soon but who knows maybe this baby will decide to wait. I am hoping for a June 22nd birthday as I will be in Creston at the time to get my last two wisdom teeth removed. Carolyn has an appointment today so we went to it and also had a tour of the NICU cause if the baby is born soon it will have to spend a little bit of time there as it will have some feeding issues. It was good to go ahead and know what to expect. She showed us two babies that were born at 32 weeks which is what Carolyn already is. One was pretty tiny and had some issues. The other one was a decent size and mainly just had feeding issues. When Carolyn had an ultrasound 10 days ago they said the baby was already over 4lbs and was in the top percentile for size which is good. If Carolyn manages to make it full term this baby is going to be big.
So this post is longer than I expected so I am not going to post about CLBI tonight maybe later.

Thanks for posting Cat, got more news from you. Did I tell you that we appreciate you being there?Love you two

I am glad things sound like they are going okay! Get some rest and I am sure Brenda Walsh would comment on the lack of wax on the eyebrow region also! I waxed mine before I got home to save myslef from that conversation.
I'm glad to hear that things are looking good for your sister ... you have such a special and loving heart.

Eyebrows? Come on,it is only about 5 bucks, a lot cheaper than a trip to GP. Also is wonderful to hear Carolyn is still hanging in there. God Is Good!
Check out Sarah's blog...I am going for "Mother of the Year"
Love you and miss you.xox
Good to hear Carolyn is doing well and the little bambino is staying put for now. Tell her Scott and I are thinking of her. You are an awesome sister Catherine. I wish I had one like you!
Cheers,
Tamara
