25 weeks!



Yesterday I hit the 25 week mark! Hard to believe that the baby should be here in about 15 weeks, that is less than 4 months! On their way down Mom and Dad had a bit of car trouble and had to have their transmission replaced while the were here. They were scheduled to leave Monday but the car was not ready until Wednesday and so they could not leave until then. It was a great visit though. They painted the nursery and spoiled the puppies like crazy! The nursery looks great it is a light yellow and soon we are going to put up a white chair rail to finish it off. Thursday was my doctor's appointment, Bryce could not go with me so Lise took me. It was a good thing that she went with me, I had my glucose tolerance test and had to wait around for them to check my blood sugar an hour after I drank the sugary drink, and my blood sugar dropped to 53 (normal is 70-100). Needless to say I was not feeling well and was glad someone was there to drive me home. But I am glad that I do not have to deal with gestational diabetes. Today we officially joined St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church. It has been a blessing for us to grow in the church family, we love our small group and have already made some great friendships that have really blessed us. We look forward to raising our child with everyone else in the group who is expecting too!

3D Ultrasound!






Today my parents came were in town so we went to Babywaves in Columbus and had the 3D/4D ultrasound done. It was pretty amazing. My favorite picture is probably the last one where the baby is sucking it's thumb. Still not finding out what it is :) A while ago I had a dream that it was a girl and last night dreamt that it was a boy, but neither dream gave me a true feeling one way or another what it is. The ultrasound tech said the baby weighs 1 pound and 7 ounces! She couldn't tell a length because the baby was curled up. But it didn't matter, it was really special to see the baby again and be able to share it with my parents and Lise. The ultrasound tech even gave a special picture to mom and Lise. The puppies have already been inundated with treats from Gammy! And they love every minute of it :)

Auburn vs TN and more!


This past weekend we went to Knoxville, TN to watch Auburn play. It was a good game and we had a great time. It was a long trip, but we figure it will be one of the last trips like that we will be able to make. Besides the game, this has been an exciting week. Monday, I was sitting on the couch after school with my hand on my belly and the baby kicked so hard it made my hand jump off my belly! I have also been able to look down at my belly and see the baby kicking, it kind of looks like I am having muscle spasms in my belly. This upcoming weekend will mark the 23 week! Hard to believe how fast it is going by. As of now this looks like the first weekend all fall that we do not have any plans! I know I am excited to just stay home and relax! The puppies' countdown continues, only 9 days until Gammy and Gampy are here!
