10 Weeks and Counting...

   Well, I'm a couple of days late again at updating my blog. We had a pretty busy day on Friday and actually this whole weekend we have been really focused on getting ready for Baby Girl.
   My visit with Dr. Aguayo on Friday went well. Aside from coming down with a cold or something like it, everything still looks good and my glucose/blood test came back normal. I gained 4 more pounds in the past 2 weeks, but she said my weight is exactly where it needs to be.
   After our visit, we went and toured the maternity ward of Crestwood Hospital where she will be born and we also registered, so we are all set to go. I have to admit...I'm starting to freak out!!  I can't believe I'm only 10 weeks away from meeting our daughter!
   So, when I said 'we are all set to go', I didn't really mean that. We still have to put the nursery together. We finished painting it and we just finished priming the furniture. We actually just got back from Lowes to buy a paint sprayer...yeah, we gave in, but it will be sooooooo much easier to paint ALL that furniture this way. Plus, we are headed down to Orlando on Thursday, so we are going to lose a couple of weekends of painting.
   We are so excited to see everyone at our baby shower this weekend!! Enjoy some pictures we took today until then.

Glucose Test Is Done

   I've been working a lot, so I'm 2 days late in posting a blog on my latest doctors appointment. I went on Friday to take my Glucose test to find out if I have gestational diabetes, I have no idea what the results were or when I will get them. All I know is, that stuff they make you drink is GROSS!! On another note, I only gained 5 pounds this past month. I was actually more worried about finding out my weight than I was having my blood drawn again. So far I have gained 23 pounds and as of today I have exactly 12 weeks to go! I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going by.
   Things are finally starting to come together. Brandon and I have finally set up our baby registry at Babies R Us and we have just started working on getting her room and furniture painted. I started putting some of the yellow paint on the walls last night and I can't wait to see this finished product today! Mom helped me over Christmas and we went and bought all of the fabrics for her room. The only thing I have partially done is the quilt that I made for her. Mom is making me the bumper pads, curtains, bed skirt, the glider covers and whatever else we can think of.
   As for baby girl, she is kicking me more and more every day. At this point you don't even need to put your hand on my belly to feel it, you can see my belly moving all over the place. My belly is also getting bigger and bigger, but I have no signs of stretch marks, so hopefully I won't have any.
   My doctor appointments are now going to be every 2 weeks, so my next one is on January 28th and then we can't wait to come home for the baby shower and see everyone!!! We love and miss you all so much more than you know!!
