First, I'm still on bedrest but things look good. I haven't dilated any further and I'm only having 2 contractions an hour or so- which is a lot, but not enough to scare the doctor. I'm continuing to work fulltime, which keeps me busy and not too lonely feeling. And kenny has been a saint.
On to the big news: Kenny got a promotion, so to speak. Up until now, he's been doing his mandatory student teaching, meaning we're paying THEM to let him teach. The plan was for him to continue through mid april, then get certified/graduate and start teaching in the fall.
A couple weeks ago (BEFORE the hospital incident and our finances falling apart) his principal suggested seeing if he cna't certify early. they've been really impressed with him and want him to be a real teacher now, so the principal was gonna try to pull some strings to speed up the process. BYU is usually as stickler about such things and we had low hopes. Well, we found out late last week that somehow we broke the system and they're letting him certify early.
Soo.... as of Friday of this week, Kenny gets his own classroom to teach AND he gets paid for it! He's technically an "intern" and they'll be paying him the same that they'd pay a substitute teacher. Better yet, he no longer needs to tutor after school so he can come home at 3 every day instead of 6:30... great for his lonely bedridden wife. He'll be teaching Algebra 1+2 and pre-calc. Next year he's lined up to teach just algebra.
Really, I feel very blessed. God knew we'd need this money and that things were going to get harder before they get better, so he provided for us another way. Hooray for my amazing husband and for our many blessings.

Three cheers for kenny!
GREAT news! Good for your hubby for doing such a wonderful job!
That's so exciting! Congrats Kenny! You're right, Heavenly Father does look out for us, especially you right now with the baby. It will be nice for you to have him home, I'm sure you need that.
Does he teach high school? Well congrats Kenny, thats so great.
Congratulations! I'm sure that relieves a lot of stress in both of your lives. Maybe that baby will decide to stay in his little womb a little longer.
YAY! I'm so glad to hear that things are working out. Good job Kenny!
