28 week baby check up

Monday was my 28 week check up which is also when I took my one hour glucose test. I was not expecting to pass it I didn’t with Nate and I don’t know many people that do so ye of little faith here had made up my mind that why would this time be any different?! …Well to my surprise I PASSED.. like really passed my sugar was 110 and had to be 135 or under WOOO WHOOO GO  ME GO ME.. I thought about hugging the nurse but trust me she would NOT have appreciated it… which by the way if you hate your job or people in general here is an idea quit or get a job where you don’t have to deal with the public, and really if I didn’t like dealing with people on a daily basis then  the OBGYN would probably be a last resort job just saying.  Anywho that little nurse wasn’t going to get me down! When she checked my iron it was 1 point low so I am now taking a iron pill once a day and that should do the trick… oh just a little fyi I learned after I got home and googled low iron in pregnancy… did you know ONE adult dosage can be fatal to a child… which absolutely freaked my freak one because Nate is here and if he gets a hold of them I would freak and two if one adult dosage is so bad for a child why is it good for me to take it when I have a baby inside of me that supposedly “gets everything I eat”…humm just a random mommy thought for you!

After the Dr. check up Brooke and I had lunch at City Café... it was delish if I do say so myself! And of course ran to baby bundles because that’s always a must if I am down town. I love that store If I was just rich right?! but I did find a gender neutral gown that I had to have it is so sweet and soft! 

O guess that’s all of my post today, a friend from church is having her baby this afternoon and I am super excited to snuggle a newborn!! cant wait to meet baby Cooper!!

Here is a picture from Easter I have not done so well on weekly or even monthly belly pics so this will have to do even though you cant really tell how big my tummy is!

Oh and this mama wants a new pair of shoes…how cute are these???!

that’s all of my random thoughts! thanks for hanging on till the end of this crazy boring post! toodles

Happy Easter!

One day when Heaven was filled with His praises
One day when sin was as black as could be
Jesus came forth to be born of a Virgin
Dwelt among men, my example is He
Word became flesh and the light shined among us
His glory revealed
Living He loved me, dying He saved me
And buried He carried my sins far away
Rising He justified freely forever
One day He's coming, oh, glorious day, oh, glorious day
One day they led Him up Calvary's mountain
One day they nailed Him to die on a tree
Suffering anguish, despised and rejected
Bearing our sins, my Redeemer is He
Hands that healed nations, stretched out on a tree
And took the nails for me
'Cause living He loved me, dying He saved me
And buried He carried my sins far away
Rising He justified freely forever
One day He's coming, oh, glorious day, oh, glorious day

Hope everyone has a great Easter! celebrating our savior!!!

The second time around

I feel like this pregnancy has gone by so fast. I feel like I have enjoyed it but I haven't slowed down enough to actually remember it. I am afraid after I have the baby I will not remember it at all…kind of like when you are going somewhere and you are there before you even realize you are…. you know you are so distracted as you drive yourself there you wonder if you stopped at all the stop signs…that’s how I am feeling lately. At this point with Nate I had his room all done his baby book started and knowing me his bag packed! Ha I mean I do have 92 days until my due date so I have plenty of time I just am not where I thought I would be at this point. I have always heard you will be more laid back with your second you realize a baby doesn’t have to have all that…. and my thinking was oh yea NOT ME I will never be like that…well you know what they say NEVER SAY NEVER!

As you all know  another thing we did different this time was not find out the sex of the baby. What a GREAT not so great idea I am thinking at this point. No really I am excited about the actual BIRTHday but sometimes I just want to know! I am a girl and I would love to go shopping but I also think it is going to be so exciting the day the baby is born. I go back and forth from what I think it is… I usually think boy but I do not have a feeling like I did with Nate. It is mostly a guess…It seems like 90% of people tell me they think or know(ha-ha come on people you don’t know) it’s a girl and then I have my mother…she says it’s a boy and she isn't budging. she says she KNOWS it’s a boy…well moms usually do know everything but I just don’t see how she KNOWS unless she was in the ultrasound room and I didn’t see her…which I guess is possible they do keep it dark in there and I didn’t check the corners… Anyway  whatever this baby is I know it is what God planned for us to have and I cant wait to hold this baby I love so much already and know nothing about… I hate the fact I cant call it by its name…so for now it is just an it I guess! here is a little picture of what you will see IT wearing the the hospital. Yes I know one of them will not get worn and will be garbage but who cares! Oh and if you didn’t know what we were naming it now you do!

Brooke I hope I got it update before naptime
