The Good News and the Bad News

Well, a lot has happened since the last time I posted. I had a blast in Galveston last week, but missed Justin. Unfortunately he was not able to join us, as he had to work. Although, we did get a few good pictures of him with my cousins, Emma and Hudson (who love him), when he dropped me off.
The trip was so much fun. We spent time on the beach, at the pool, visited Moody Gardens and Kemah Boardwalk, and hung out playing games and enjoying family dinners at the rental house. Here is our family photo on the beach (I know, I'm enormous).
And Kim took a couple belly pics of me too. Here is my favorite.
Unfortunately, while we were there I did get a call from my ob that said that my 1 hr glucose levels came back elevated. This means that I might have developed gestational diabetes. I went in today to take the 3 hr test to find out for sure. ::fingers crossed that it comes back negative::

We also found out that we will most likely not be able to make it to MO to see Justin's mom's family, due to Justin's work schedule. We are both so disappointed, but I am holding out hope that we can still work out a visit.

Lastly, I have another ultrasound scheduled tomorrow. I'm very excited. We haven't seen pictures of our little girl in 10 weeks. I can't wait to see how much she has grown. Pictures to be posted soon.

  2. Well, I know that you don't have it - yeah, but obviously need to watch your eating and exercise. So glad everything is going so well.
    I love you, Mom
    PS - David had an idea for you to post a note at your apartment complex - Looking for pregnant Mom to walk/swim and partner on healthy eating plan! You will have someone to talk to and make a new friend in the process.
