time to rest

hi everyone,

i wanted to give you a quick update on the last 24 hours. last night when liz went on the monitors (usually every 4 hours) she was having regular contractions which was not part of the plan. they immediately put her on an IV as lack of fluids can be a cause of pre-term labor. they also started her on another medicine that she will be on for a total of 72 hours. thankfully this medicine does not have any noticeable side effects like the prior medicines. the contractions have slowed back down and liz is really focusing on resting and keeping plenty hydrated. we would request that there be no visitors until Friday of this week. please feel free to text and email and we appreciate all the love and support that we have felt during these times. i know that Liz isn't enjoying bed rest and the hospital stay, but she is really determined to all she can to keep the girls in her belly as long as possible. we thank God for his continual grace and mercy on our family and will do our best to keep you all posted.

andrew, liz, josiah and the girls
