GTT test...FAILED!

So, Monday I went for my GTT test (Glucose Tolerance Test) to check for Gestational Diabetes. Those of you who have been pregnant before, I'm sure you are familiar with this test. Those who haven't, you basically have to drink this super sugared drink (mine was like Hawaiian Punch) then have a blood test an hour later to check your sugar levels.

The Doctor called yesterday and told Matt that my sugar level was "extrememly high", so now I have to go do another 3 hour test today. That is 3 hours of sitting in a Doctor's office! Not my idea of fun for the day. Hopefully I studied better this time and pass the test!

The Nursery is painted




My Grandparents came over today and we painted our nursery. It looks FANTASTIC! We haven't got the furniture arranged yet, but we still have time for that.

This border is actually my 2nd choice of border, but, it cost 1/2 as much as my 1st choice. It prepasted and you just pull the back off and stick it on. The first roll worked out quite well. The second roll was defective, so we had to return it and get another, which also turned out to be defective. There was only ONE roll left at the store, so we prayed that it would work, and it did.

I'm excited to start getting the rest of the nursery pulled together and have a baby to go in it!

25 Week Belly


Because Linda is such a belly nut...here is 25 weeks! I love watching my belly change! It's really strange when I stand up and it starts stretching further and further out b/c Jeremy is moving. How crazy! Occassionaly I can feel what I beleive to be a butt poking out. He's got a tiny little butt--hehe.
He still likes to hang out nice and low. I'm getting concerned that I'll be like one of those pregnant ladies who literally looks like a basketball is hiding under her shirt! So far, no stretch marks!! My mom doesn't have any, so maybe I have good genes :)
We are heading out to Matt's brother's wedding. Hopefully I can post some pictures from that (yes, with my head on them Julie T.!)

Tums are my friend


Everyone, take stock in Tums! The heartburn has majorly kicked in. Now, I have never been a heartburn sufferer. And, as I am now finding out, it stinks! I woke up in the middle of the night last night, and was in some major discomfort. But, alas, my mother was thinking ahead and bought me some Tums. Ahhhhh....the relief. I love Tums. I think I might marry them :) They even taste pretty good going down.
