Baby Update

So I went to the dr. on Wednesday and everything looked good. The baby weighs about 7 lbs and 3 oz. I was also dialated 2 cm, which I wasn't expecting but I'll take it. Anyways the dr has scheduled to induce me on Wed June 16, because she doesn't want the baby to get too big and let me go too long with the gestational diabetes. So I go in Wed. at 7:30 am and I will have this baby. I am so excited. I had kind of wanted to wait and let him come on his own, but I would rather him be okay and me be able to deliver him more. So since he will only be 1 week early I'm okay with it. I am so ready for him to be here. Addisyn and Bradley are ready too. When I told Addisyn that we were going to have him on Wed. she was so excited that she started crying. She has been waiting for so long she said, and she's ready for me to be normal again. (she is so funny, but I'm ready to be normal again). Well I don't know if I'll post before Wed., but I'll definitely keep ya posted on when he does come.

One more post

I've had a lot of requests to see a full on pregnancy picture of me. Against my better judgment I have decided to post one. I don't think I look terrible but my eyes look so tired all the time. Maybe it's just age. I am 30 now. Anyways these pictures are of me at 37 1/2 weeks, oh and the close up one is to just show off my beautiful pearls my parents got me for my birthday. I love them and want to wear them all the time. Thanks mom & dad, love ya.

Here we go again

Things are getting busier as time gets closer to having this baby. Last week the dr. measured him at 6 lb 11oz, and everything is looking great for a normal delivery. It doesn't look like they'll have to induce me, which I'm so happy about. I've been able to maintain a great blood sugar level on this diabetic diet, but I can't wait to eat real food again (chocolate). I however lost another pound which totals me to losing 15 lbs since diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I eat everything they'll let me, but it's not very much that's for sure. Anyways I go back tomorrow and the dr. is going to check his size again and see how big he is.

So this is what we've been up to:

1. Trying to get things ready for the baby - the boys' room

2. Do as much as I can with Addisyn & Bradley before the baby comes - I'm totally exhausted.


3. Happy 30th Birthday to me! Jay and I both turn 30 this year and after the baby is born and a little older we're going to celebrate big. I did have a wonderful birthday with my family. Thanks so much for coming and showering me with such thoughtful gifts. We went and ate at Rendezvous BBQ (my portions were extremely small), went to a redbirds game, took a carriage ride downtown, and hung out the rest of the weekend doing nothing. It was great. My sisters and me (minus 1)

4. Addisyn had her 1st piano recital and if my camera will cooperate I'll post a picture of it. She is doing so well, and enjoying quite a bit too.

5. Jay and I went and saw Diana Ross in concert this past weekend. She was amazing, and it was great to have a weekend just to ourselves (thanks mom & dad).
