25 Weeks 3 Days

Hi y'all ~ Well our weekend was a trying time. Jason had a job that he had a hard time on and things didn't work out as planned. It happens. Saturday I was out there helping him get this job done as he was losing time for the install on Sunday. We did get the job done, but other things happened on Sunday that just didn't work. Oh well. Learn and move on. So with that said, Jason was home early from his install on Sunday and we went to register at Babies-R-Us in the afternoon finally. Sheeesh! It took over 2 hours to go through the store scanning things we needed and wanted. 1/2 hour of our time was spent on a stroller alone! We could NOT figure the darn thing out and how to collapse it. We finally had to ask a sales person how the darn thing worked. He showed us and it was really simple, however we would have NEVER figured it out on our own. Jason and I need classes to go to, to learn how all these baby things work! Do they have them? I don't know, but they should for first time parents!

I had to do my glucose test this week and finally did that on Wednesday. It wasn't bad at all. I was prepared for the worst with the orange stuff I had to drink. I had been told by others how awful this stuff was to drink. I must be weird, because I thought it tasted just like Sunkist orange drink and didn't have a hard time drinking it. It was gone in a minute. Then I sat there in the waiting room for an hour. Boring! Then after my hour was up, they had to take my blood. 2 vials for testing. I received my results back today. NOT good! My glucose results were suppose to be under 139 mg and mine was 227 mg. So now I wait for the doctor to call me and schedule me to come back for more testing to see if I have gestational diabetes. Apparently it's a longer glucose test where I have to fast for 12 hours before and they take blood every hour for 3 hours after I drink the orange glucose stuff. I thought for sure I was going to pass this test with no problems what so ever. Boy was I wrong. I will keep you all informed on the next test to come.

As for the baby... He is kicking away and getting a little bigger. His daddy and I sit on the couch at night with the TV remote on my tummy and watch the little one kick it around. It's so funny to watch. Grandma still tries to feel him move, but no go. He freezes up on her too.

For this weekend, we have Jason's mom's garage sale planned both days. It should be great weather and in the 70's. I can't believe it's January with this weather! And after the garage sale on Sunday, we are back at home to watch the Super Bowl. :) I don't care who wins, but I'm in a pool so I hope the score fall on my numbers! Wish me luck! Talk to you all soon.

Love to all!
