~2 Month Stats~

Kimberly had her two month apt. today. She had to get shots and wasn't very happy about it she also had to get her belly button chemically cauterised because it hasn't healed all the way and has to get ointment put in her eyes because she has a clogged tear duct. Man my poor baby! she is doing amazing with it all, we put the ointment in her eyes this evening and she didn't even cry. Other than those few things she is very healthy and growing perfectly. The doctor also said she might start sleeping through the night, that would be nice. He also said we could try to put her in her crib to sleep at night instead of the bassinet. I'm not sure when we will try that, we will have to see.

Christmas!

Christmas was GREAT this year.....(well most of it...I hated not being with my family down south) We got some really fun stuff like....a new laptop...Wii fit...biggest loser game for Wii fit...guitar hero...glider chair for babies room...surround sound system for upstairs...catch phrase...a web cam so grandparents can see Kimberly grow up...some much needed money to work on our yard this summer...a skilsaw...mirror for living room upstairs...movie Twilight...Family game night game for PS2...socks... and a lot of candy.....Thank you everyone for the wonderful gifts!

Kimberly got some really fun stuff also, it might be awhile before she can play with some of it but I know she will love it......Exersauser...learn and groove musical table...1.2.3 lights'n sound ball...another playmat...her first baby and bear...a rocking horse...a bouncing pig...some new outfits..... I can't wait to watch her enjoy these gifts, she just needs to be a little more sturdy with her neck to play with some of these toys.

The night before Christmas Eve we made dinner for Patti, Trip, Grandma and Grandpa Dyches. We had Prime Rib, Yams, Green salad, Jell-O, and Rolls. It was a Wonderful dinner. We then spent Christmas Eve with Jeremy's dad, we went to Chili's for dinner then came back and played the Wii, then watched The Hangover (pretty funny movie). On Christmas day we went to Patti's for breakfast and opened gifts from her, came home for some rest, then went to Jeremy's grandparents for early dinner and opened some gifts from them, then we went to Jared's house to spend some time with him. We then came home and relaxed. I love Christmas time. Spending time with family. We had went down to St. George the weekend before Christmas. We saw my two little sisters and nephew in their Christmas performance, had a big dinner my Grammi J made and opened some gifts from them. I wish I could have stayed down there longer but there is so much going on at Christmas its hard to stay in one place. And I'm sorry aunt Natalie couldn't come this year but we had her in our hearts and hope she had a great Christmas in Austin! :-) Here are some fun pictures of Christmas.................

Christmas fun part 2

This last weekend we did our finishing Christmas shopping and made some yummy treats. We made fudge and sugar cookies. I have plans to make caramel popcorn balls but we will see. Kimberly has been a little fussy this last weekend and wants a lot more attention so my time is spent with her. Which I don't mind at all she is my life now! She has been trying to coo a lot more these days also. It is so fun to watch her learn new things. I love this little girl so much, I love being a mommy! Daddy has a little more of a hard time with the fussiness but he still loves being a dad. And last night while we were making treats we found that Kimberly loves to dance around the kitchen with mommy and daddy, but does look at us like we are crazy! :-)

Here are some more pictures of another fun Christmas outfit! This one is from my mom's friend Kristie. "Thanks Kristie, we love new warm fuzzy outfits!"

"but hate hats!!" ha ha she is not a fan of hats these days

These two pictures are of her second bath. We didn't get any of the first so I took some at this bath. She is ok with baths but they are still not her favorite and I'm sure its because she doesn't like to get cold!

My beautiful angel!!

Christmas fun!

I'm so excited for Kimberly"s first Christmas! We have been putting up lights, decorations, and the tree. Kimberly was given some cute outfits by her Grandma Pearmain (Maga) and they are so cute on her. On Saturday she took her first REAL bath. (Yes I know she is almost 7 weeks, but that is how long it took for her umbilical cord to fall off, She is a late starter on things) She enjoyed it until I washed her hair and then I think she got cold. We didn't get any pictures of her in the bath because Jeremy was video taping it but we got some of her after in one of her cute outfits!
Yesterday we also tried on her hat Jeremy and I bought for her to see if it would fit. We got some fun smiles from her!


This is another outfit she got from Maga! With a short video for her underneath this pictures. Thanks for everything mom!

Kimberly's Cry for attention!

So Kimberly has this cry and makes it sound like she is in incredible pain. I decided I needed to record it for her to listen to when she is older. So no I am not inflicting any pain on my child in recording this, so please don't call child services on me! :-) She will cry this hard and then be perfectly fine. She is a very funny girl!!

I have been trying to do new things with her long hair! She looks like she has horns with this one!

She is so nice when she is sleeping!

Yesterday Kimberly and I went out and helped Jeremy put christmas lights up. We bundled her up to keep her warm. She liked it for awhile but then got bored!!

This is all you could see of her!

ONE MONTH OLD!

Kimberly was one month old yesterday and I turned 26 yesterday! We had a fun day with Maga. She flew in yesterday morning to spend some time with us. We went and got Kimberly's pictures taken........boy was it an adventure!!! We met up with Grammi J and went down to south towne mall to see if Kiddie Kandids or JcPenney had any opening and JCPenney did so we booked a time which was about an hour away so we walked around the mall. While we were walking Kimberly fell asleep, which was fine I just decided we would get some picture of her sleeping and would plan on getting awake ones later. Well when we got back to the studio I got her undressed and changed her diaper. She ended up waking up and was hungry. Luckily I had brought a bottle to feed her, so I gave her that. Before she finished the bottle they said it was our turn. So we took her in the room and put on one of there diaper covers and laid her down on the white sheet. Well she was still hungry so she got mad. Then she threw up down the white sheet. So my mom picked her up and was trying to comfort her and feed her the rest of the bottle while I cleaned up the puke. Well she decided to go poop up her back right at that moment, but of course she is naked and so it ended up going all down my mom onto the WHITE sheet!!!! Yes my daughter pooped on the white she at the photo studio! I was so embarrassed and was saying "I can't believe you Kimberly!" and " I bet this hasn't happened to you guys". My mom and I kept asking what we could do and they were so nice and just said they will send it out to be cleaned! but I still felt horrible about it. We did end up getting some cute pictures (I'll have to post when we get them) and after I got her dressed and put her back in the stroller. I looked at her and said "you little stinker" She gave me the biggest smile! Oh the joys of being a mom! We then went out to dinner at Iggy's and she was an angel.

~A cute smile we got after we got home from getting pictures!!~

My poor baby!

MRI:

Last Tuesday Kimberly had to go in for an MRI of her spine. We started out the day with giving her, her last feeding at 5:30 a.m. and then waited to head up to primary children's hospital at 9 a.m. When we got there we had a few doctors come in and talk to us about what was going to happen and decide what kind of sedation she was going to get. They then weight her and we found our baby girl is growing like a weed. She weights 8 lbs. 13oz!!! I'm just glad she is growing! :-) Then two nurses came in and gave her an I.V. (yes I know it was hard for me to watch!) They tried in one hand and could not get the vein (it kept rolling) so the other nurse took over and did it in the other hand. I hated listening to my baby cry! Luckily Jeremy was there to hold her and make her feel better. I Think if I would have gone alone I would have lost it! ~The I.V.'s ~~Her trying to eat her hand she was so hungry poor girl~

After we waited for her turn. It only took about 15 min and they came in and offered her a blanket to take home and told us it was her turn. The nurse took us down to the MRI. They had Jeremy hold her while they gave her the sedation (Kimberly was already worn out from all the excitement she had already started to fall asleep before they gave her the medicine) They then took her into the machine and got her all set up. Then they told us we could not stay and it would take about 45 min. So Jeremy and I headed down to get me something to eat. My stomach was kind of upset but I knew I needed to eat so Kimberly would get a good feeding when she woke up. We walked around the hospital reading all the fun facts about the old Primary Children's hospitals, but of course all we could really think about was our little girl. When we got back up to the MRI they had just taken her out and were setting her up on all the machines to watch her. I hated seeing all the things hooked up to her, but was glad that they were watching her. We ended up having to wake her up to feed at about 1 p.m. she was not happy with us, she wanted to keep sleeping. She did end up eating but never opened her eyes! Jeremy then headed off to work. (we never like him to leave, but we know he has to work) We were then taken down to Same day surgery for a 12 hour observation (she had to be observed because she was under a month old!)~Her sleeping and hooked up to monitors~

Janica then came up to sit with me while we hung out. It was nice to have someone up there to talk to. Kimberly pretty much slept the whole day. She only woke up to eat but never opened her eyes. We left the hospital at 11 p.m. and arrived home around midnight. She finally did open her eyes but just long enough to eat and then feel asleep. She was so good through the whole thing I am a proud mommy!

Fun fact about that night while I was feeding her at midnight I saw the light from the metier out my back window. I didn't know what it was until the next night. So of course a new mom the first thought that came to my mind was the cops were after someone and it was the light from a spot light. So I got scared and was trying to remember if I locked both my doors! I know I'm funny!

The reason for the MRI:

Our baby girl was born with a "Wort" looking bump right in between her butt cheeks. So the doctors have wanted her to get first an ultra sound and then an MRI of it to see if it is attached to her spine or to see if it is anything serious that we need to get it removed right away. So far the results have come back that it is NOT connected to her spine and it doesn't seem to be anything to worry about. Jeremy and I have decided to get it removed just so she doesn't have to deal with it when she is older. We do not know when she will get it removed we are waiting to go and see the surgeon about it. So we will keep you all updated on that. Thank you for all your support while we go through this! :-)

Her little bump!!

Grammi J!!!

Jeremy, Kimberly and I would like to wish our Grammi J a happy birthday!!! You mean the world to us! I wish we got together more often. I mean we live so close but it seems so far away. We hope you have a great birthday and can't wait to see you. Thank you for everything you have done for us and for being there for us when ever we need you. We Love you so much!!!Grammi and Poppy at the hospital with Kimberly

2 weeks old/Halloween

Yesterday I took Kimberly for her 2 week apt. She is doing great........she left the hospital at 6lbs 11oz and yesterday she was 7lbs 9oz. My baby girl is growing well!!! The past week or so at home have been good. Breastfeeding is going well (as you can tell!) and for the most part she is a good baby. She does have a temper on her but luckily she isn't to much of a crier! I have been doing pretty well I went for my 2 week apt. today and found that I may have a little infection so I have to go on some meds. and have to go back to the doctor on Friday but hopefully it isn't to bad and I will get over it soon. For Halloween Jeremy, Kimberly and I just hung out at home. I made chili for dinner. Patti, Trip and Nick joined us for dinner and helped pass out candy. Kimberly was a ladybug for Halloween, I thought her costume was going to drowned her but she fit in it nicely. It's still hard to believe she is two weeks today. Time does fly by!!!!Our precious angel!!!

Our Ladybug!

She gets very mad if she doesn't get attention!

The Story of her first day's

Monday:

I ate my final meal before her delivery, at noon and began my fasting. Then Jeremy went to work at around 2:30. My mom flew in around 4:00 and we went to get pedicures. At 6:00 I called St. Marks hospital to find out when they wanted me to come in. Then at 7:45 we could wait no longer so we arrived at the hospital in hopes they would admit us, which they did end up doing.

My mom and I were taken back to a delivery room and I was changed into one of those beautiful hospital gowns, put on the monitors and checked to see if I had made any progress. The nurse tells me I am 80% and dilated to a one and a half. She then started my I.V. Well baby decided she didn't like that and had her first of a couple of heart rate drops. They threw oxygen on me and her heart rate went back up. After that they were trying to decide if they should still do the cervidil or just start the pitocin at a really low level. After talking to the doctor and he heard what happened with her heart rate he decided to start me on a low level of pitocin. (you can stop pitocin but you can't stop the affects of cervidil, which they wanted to be able to stop labor if her heart rate dropped again). Jeremy and Patti got to the hospital around 3:30a.m. and I was starting to feel pain but it wasn't to bad. The only thing that sucked (at the time) was I had to stay on my right side because either the monitor would lose her heart rate or her hart rate would drop if I laid any other way. (needless to say my right side was aching really bad)

Tuesday:

We all started Tuesday morning pretty tired. Jeremy, Grandma Coon, Maga, and I (of course) were at the hospital. After hanging out Jeremy and Patti decided to go get some breakfast and check on Rover. While they were gone I ended up getting very nauseated and throw up all over my mom (sorry about that mom!). Soon after my sister Keesha came over and hung out. Jeremy and Patti got back, so my mom and Keesha could leave for some breakfast and meet up with my dad. The doctor came over around 7 a.m., broke my water, and told me I was 2 cm dilated. They then upped my pitocin to get labor going. I made it a few more hours before I got an epidural, I was at 3 cm when I got it. They also changed from external monitors to internal monitors so I didn't have to lay on one side the whole time. A little while later Grandpa Coon showed up to wait with the rest of the family. Through out the process I had some of the worst heartburn so I kept sucking on tums, but they only worked for a little while. The epidural wasn't as nice as I thought it would be. I'm not sure if it was the anesthesiologist that was all over the place (as in I was not impressed with how she does her work) or if it was were she placed it but my right side kept coming unnumb and I kept feeling my contractions. I ended up getting two upped doses but it still didn't work well. There was also another time that her heart rate dropped so I had to lay on my right side again. Around 7:30p.m. they informed me I was finally at 10 cm but her heart rate dropped once again and so they wanted to call the doctor to see if I should start pushing or wait for him. At around 8p.m. the nurse came in and said that they wanted me to start pushing. I pushed for about 45 min when my doctor arrived and checked me. He informed me that she was face up and wasn't coming any further down so it was my decision to either continue pushing or head in for a c-section. He didn't think I would be able to get her out vaginally for more than one reason. One she was face up and normally he would be able to turn a baby to get them face down but she was wedged. I said I wanted what ever was best for the baby and I didn't want to continue to push and get her more stuck. So we were on our way for a c-section. Jeremy put on his handsome get-up and the anaesthesiologist came in to get me ready. I did get emotion but I knew it was what I needed to do to get my daughter here safely.

C-Sec:

The one thing I was nervous about going into the c-sec was that I wanted to make sure the epidural worked and wouldn't wear off in the middle of it. We ended up getting a new anesth. which I was so glad about and he informed me they give me alot more medicine and I wouldn't feel it. They rolled me down to the O.R. with Jeremy by my side. The feelings you have while having a c-sec are very weird and hard to explain. Everything went great and when we heard our daughter cry for the first time we both lite up with excitement. Jeremy ran over and would take picture of her and then would run back over to me and would show me. He then went back over until they gave him the baby to bring over for me to meet. In that time I was so exhausted I actually fell asleep and woke up to a beautiful baby girl right by my face. I got to see her for a min. until they finished up and then rolled me back to my room. Jeremy and the baby right behind me. Back at the room we were greeted by my mom and dad, Patti and Trip, Jared, And Keesha. We were informed she was 7 lbs 5 oz and 21 inches long and boy did she have some beautiful dark brown hair. After spending time with everyone Jeremy and I informed everyone that her name was Kimberly Elizabeth. Jeremy also surprised me with a set of Pearls (Which I have been wanting for a very long time. They are a peach colored set, I can't wait to wear them.) Patti, Trip, Jared, and Keesha then left to go home. My mom, dad, Jeremy, Kimberly and I were taken upstairs to my postpartum room. They then took Kimberly and Jeremy into the nursery to check her temp and give her, her first bath. My mom and dad then left to go get some sleep. Jeremy and I were left to be with our baby girl, for the first time we were a family of three!

40 Weeks!!!!!

Yes I am still pregnant!!! This little girl is comfy in my belly. I went to the doctors today and he said I haven't changed ANY!!! I'm still 1 cm and 50% effaced. So........they scheduled me for an induction. If she doesn't come SOONER I will begin the fun Monday Oct 19. That night I will go in and they will start the induction. Its scary and exciting to think there is an end in sight. I know this could still happen sooner so there are a lot of emotions going through my body. I can't wait to see her. Today I also went in and had a NST (None stress test) and the baby looks just fine. The only thing they thought about questioning was my fluid. They like you to get a score between 8-24 and I got a 10. It was kind of fun seeing her on the ultrasound again. She did have her back to us but I got to see kind of a side view of her forehead and nose. Her little hand up by her mouth (maybe sucking her thumb!) I would have to say I get a little nervous sometimes these days, I didn't think I would but I guess that comes with realizing I'm going to have to push a baby out. Ha ha!

This last Friday I thought I had started labor nothing serious but I called my mom and sister Keesha, so they flew up on Friday night and stayed until Saturday night. I was fun having them here for a day but it did suck nothing ended up happening. I went to the hospital on Saturday because I thought my water might have started leaking but found out it hadn't. I also got to be hooked up to the monitors for a little while but the nurse told me I look perfectly fine! Now I understand why women have so many false alarms! Well hopefully the next blog will be the baby but we will have to see! Wish us luck.

39 Weeks

Well we made it 39 weeks.........Doctor said I'm 1 cm dilated and still only 50% effaced so I did do a little this last week but still not much. I guess I need to do a LOT more walking and need to start trying all the different things prego women try. I am back up the 3lbs I lost from being a little sick and everything else is normal, so I can't complain there. Today I spent the day returning and exchanging items so now we are really ready for her. Jeremy will have some setting up to do but I think he likes that part! :-) Well wish us luck that baby decides to come! I will keep everyone posted if anything exciting happens.

We're ready now!

This last weekend Jeremy and I finished getting the babies room ready. His Grandma and I have been working on a quilt for her bed and she finished it and brought it over yesterday. I am so please with how it turned out. The middle square ended up being kind of a headache for us but we figured it out and Jeremy's aunt Sue found someone that did a great job on it. So all I have to say is baby we are READY for you to be here.Her Quilt

Her play yard

38 Weeks

38 Weeks

Went to the doctors this morning.......I lost 3 lbs and baby grew 1 cm (measuring 38 cm) she is still head down and I was having a contraction when he was checking me so that's a good sign my body is getting ready. I am 50% effaced but still only a dimple. You ask why I lost three pounds well I got a little sick on Sunday and couldn't eat much and was down on the couch for two days. I am feeling better now but I do think my body is getting ready for this little one to come into the world. I have been a lot more uncomfortable this pass week and have had a lot more braxton hicks the past few days. I would have to say that I don't like this not know crap. I know most if not all pregnant woman go through it. But I am such a planner that I hate not knowing things. Jeremy is getting so excited himself he doesn't want her to come until the 10th of Oct. (for taking work off) but I think he is just as ready to meet this little one. He has been getting as many jobs around the house done so when she gets here he can spend more time with her. It will be nice to have him home for a week or so after she comes!

This last Saturday I had my last baby shower and my Grammi J's. It turned out really well and she got a ton more things. My mom, sister Keesha, nephew Jarryn and even my little sister Kylee came in and surprised me for the shower. It was nice to have them all here. I was sad my little sister Kenzi couldn't make it up. But hopefully everything will work out and she can come up and spend some time with me when the baby gets here.

37 Weeks

I had my doctors appt. yesterday........I didn't gain anything this week and baby grew 1 cm. Still measuring just right. He checked me and said I'm still thick and closed so nothing yet, which for us right now is good. I would have to say I'm ready to hear something is happening but I don't want us to go early and have the headache of insurance, So baby needs to wait tell Oct 1st and then she is good to come anytime. Last night I was feeling braxton hicks contractions all night so I didn't sleep well but I guess thats the beginning of whats to come. It's nice that they don't hurt but they make the baby move a lot which in turn keeps me up. I just can't wait to be able to see and hold her! Its getting really exciting to think that I only have three weeks left.

Last night I also had a friend baby shower. It was really nice my friend Amy threw it for me. We had a light dinner, opened some gifts and then just sat around and chatted. It was nice to see some people from Skywest I have missed seeing everyone from there. I was sad that some didn't make it but I guess that just means we need to do stuff more often!

Last Saturday I also had a baby shower for the Coon's side of the family. Patti (Jeremy's mom) threw that one for us. It was a great turn out and baby got a ton of stuff. Grandma Dyches made the baby a lot of blankets which I love. My mom and Grammi J came out to it also. It was nice to have my mom come up for it and got to spend sometime just chatting with her. It would be nice to live a little closer to my mom but I guess St. George isn't forever away and its nice she still has flight benefits.

Today is also my moms birthday! I just wanted to tell her that we love her and hope she is having a great day. We will have to go out and do something one of the time we get together!

36 Weeks!

Had my doctors apt today.........I've gained 2 lbs......baby grew 2 cm she is measuring 36 cm, right on track! And baby is head down (NO FLIPPING BABY!) From this apt on the doctor will be checking me for any signs she ready to come and this trip she's not even close. He said "you are thick and closed" so I guess she is very comfy in there. My mom told me "I guess this means we need to start walking" So after next Monday I will be 37 weeks (full term) so I will be walking my heart out (or I guess baby out!!) I would have to say having the doctor check you isn't the funnest thing to have done! But I guess I shouldn't complain to much I'm sure it hurts a lot worse to actually have the baby, I better save my OUCHES for that.

Me at 35 Weeks

33 Weeks

I went to the doctor yesterday.......I've gained 2 lbs and the baby has grown 1 cm. My blood work was all normal which he said was very rare in a pregnant woman. So no anemia and no diabetes!!! I would have to say I have been very lucky.....besides being nausea sick everything else is going good. I haven't had to deal with cramping, bleeding, or anything with the baby. I definitely think we were supposed to have this baby now. I can't believe that I only have 6 weeks left. Its crazy how fast it has gone.

I had my shower down in St. George a couple weeks ago and it went really well. I was so happy with the turn out. Thanks to my mom, sisters and my grammi J. The baby got a lot of fun stuff. After I got it home I couldn't wait to show it all to Jeremy and lay it out for everyone to see. It was also nice to see all the friends we have. We definitely had a FULL house that day. I was also way excited Jeremy's grandma was able to make it. It's hard for her to leave Grandpa alone so it was nice of her to come and visit for a little bit. We need to get down there to visit them more often.

As you read before Jeremy's 30th birthday was on Monday the 24th. So this last weekend we went camping up at his mom's cabins. It was fun to get out of the heat, but I think the altitude didn't agree with a third trimester girl. I had some problems getting breaths and was a little light headed so I just kind of sat around but I think Jeremy had fun. His Grandma and Grandpa Dyches came up for a day. So Jeremy, Patti, Trip, Grandpa, Grandma, Rover and Paizlee went on a four wheeler ride. They said they had a lot of fun taking the dogs down to the lake. I think the dogs enjoyed it also. Rover is a funny dog he LOVES camping but then he runs on the rocks and gets himself so exhausted. I think if he could he would call the cabin or camping his home!!

Oh I also wanted to post that my older sister Keesha and brother-in-law Greg are expecting a baby this coming Feb. I am so excited for them. I think Jarryn is excited also. He says he wants a sister so he can have "two sisters and two brothers". So I guess when we welcome our little girl we will find out what they are having. We are thinking she should find out right about the same time. And they also just go a new house. I am so glad things are going well for them.

Well I guess that's it for now. We have a couple free weekends and then I am going to have a few more baby showers so I will update on all that later.

Birthday Boy!!

I just wanted to wish Jeremy a Happy 30th Birthday today. I hope you have a great birthday, especially because you don't have to work. I love you so much and am glad to call you my husband and best friend! :-) I couldn't have asked for a better husband! Just think next year you will have a little one saying happy birthday daddy!

Week 30

Had my doctors apt. today......I've gained 1 pound and she gain 3cm which means still big. The doctor actually called her fat today!! His words "I think this baby just wants to be fat" He also said her heart beat sounds good and to come back in three weeks. I can't believe I only have 10 weeks left maybe less. I would have to say I'm getting to the done stage but I know I will miss being pregnant. I'm sure Jeremy would love to have his wife back also. I've been emotional lately and will just cry for no reason. Luckily Jeremy has been good about it and he will just come and hug me. Sometimes he will ask whats wrong but usually there isn't a reason so he just says "the pregnancy" and I just nod. He has been pretty good through this whole thing, with me being sick and not working and all. Money has been a little stressful but it sounds like everyone is going through that right now. People are just in different situations! The main thing I have found is TALK it out with your spouse because holding it in is the worst thing to do!
This Friday and Saturday we will go to our birthing class. I'm pretty excited about it but I'm not sure how Jeremy feels. I told him the other day "you know they will probably show a "birth" video at this class" Jer-"that's when you will need/want a snack right!!!" I don't think he is looking forward to that part but it will be nice for both of us to learn things we will be going through as first time parents. And then next weekend I will be having my first baby shower. It will be exciting to get some much needed things for this little girl. I will have to update you on all the stuff coming up.

Need help again!

So I need some help/advice again. I just started looking at mattresses for the crib and was wondering if there is one better than others? whats a good price to pay? etc. Please let me know what you think!

One more to go!

Starting my THIRD Trimester, wow its so crazy I have less than 12 weeks to go. I went to the doctors today......I've lost a pound but baby girl is still measuring a little big. The doctor says she sounds really good (she was hiding from the doctor today though and every time he would get the heart beat she would move or kick it, guess she didn't want to be nice to the doc!) I took my glucose test also, but I wont get the results for a day or two. I was a little nervous about the sugar drink because some people have told me its really gross, but I actually liked it. I had a definite sugar high for awhile!!
Life has been going pretty good, I went down to St. George last week and hung out with my family. That was really nice I went up to my parents trailer (it was just my parents and me) It was nice to just hang out and talk to them. Don't get opportunities like that very often anymore. I did start getting migraines from this heat and not drinking enough fluids which kind of sucked, but other than that it was a great trip. Oh and apparently I have started waddling. My mom said to me "every time I feed you, you waddle!" hahaha The fun of being prego! :-)
