Handy reference.

Not Yet

Kelley started having contractions last week, in the middle of the night. She’s only 6 months in, and this is the second time it happened.It calmed down in hospital and she is now officially on bed rest until further notice. Bed rest means she is required to be lying down doing as little as possible, as much as is possible. So spare a thought for her.


She’s reading, we’ve ordered cable, and she might get to some origami and other crafty kind of stuff that are feasible from bed. If you have ideas, drop me a line: sam@sam-i-am.com.
