Baby Number 4 Surprises Continue

Hey Everyone-

Larissa and I just wanted to let everyone know how things are going with this pregnancy, especially since many of you know we spent the last day at the hospital. After having a virus run through our family it finally got to both of us. I got it Tuesday evening and Larissa came down with it on Wednesday late afternoon. That morning she was experiencing some contractions and so after contacting her ob we went to the hospital. She was severely dehydrated and so she was given 2000 cc of fluid through an IV and afterwards came home. She is still not feeling 100% but is definitely better then she was yesterday. We figure that the whole dehydration thing is more detrimental then we would have thought. The doctors will be monitoring her again in two weeks and keeping an eye on her since she seems to be dilated to a one, this could be because of the contractions brought on by this sickness or from having more then two children. We will just have to wait and see. The baby seems to be doing better now after the whole ordeal. We have really appreciate all your help with the boys, meals, prayers and concern for our family at this time, truly all of you have been such a great blessing to us!

Blessings,
Will (for Larissa and the fam!)
