I had my glucose test over a week ago and I have yet to hear the results.. Usually no news means good news so thats what I am hoping for :) Oh, and the fruit punch flavor is just as nasty as all the other ones! It gave me severe heart burn (weird...) and I didnt eat anything the rest of the day besides drink water. My stomach was so upset! Whats funny is that drink has the same amount of sugar in it as a candy bar and can of soda! I KNOW I could easily eat those two things without getting sick ;). Maybe its because you have to consume the whole thing in 5 min or less... My dr has been out of town so I am really hoping he doesnt call me when he gets back to tell me any bad news... I REALLY REALLY dont want to have to do the 3 hour long glucose test!
Some things that have been going on with me: My belly is HUGE now.. I seem to bump it on everything and it gets in the way a lot! I have no new stretch marks but I still do have those wonderful "mommy marks" from Kinsey that are noticeable. I only have them around my belly button!!! of all places, WHY did they have to show up in the most noticeable place haha. I have totally lost my appetite. I only eat because I know my baby needs it but I just cant find anything that I enjoy eating. I have splurged a lot and had me some caffeine... Not good, I know, but I have been so desperate lately because of my lack of sleep. I have also been one DE-pressed preggo women. That is not a good combo, I feel bad for Brandon lol. I love my life and I love being a stay at home mommy, but I have NO life! I have no friends that I go do things with, and I only have a few people I can call on the phone to just chat. So other then that my life is consumed with cleaning, taking care of a toddler and puppy, and going to school. I am constantly busy and on the go.. so I dont know when I would find time to do anything for myself. That starts to wear on a person when you have no change and its always same ole same ole.. I have decided I am going to fork out whatever money I have to once this baby is born to get me a Gold's gym membership and take all those fun classes I used to take all the time. "Exercise gives your endorphins, endorphins make you happy..." Famous words from Elle Woods haha (I love Legally Blonde). Back in the day when I danced and worked out everyday I felt so good about myself and loved how I looked. and now I will have 2 kids and I DO NOT want to look like some moms I see that just let their baby lbs shed off over a 5 year span lol I will be back to my pre preggo weight and I will even get my nice abs and toned body back within 1 year!! Thats my goal. Along with this depression comes severe anxiety. Ask anyone of my family members and they will tell you I have let stress get the best of me since I came out of the womb lol. Something so simple can throw me into a panic and I let it effect me for way too long. I am just glad I have Brandon to knock some sense into me when I get like this. I am hoping I can survive the rest of this pregnancy without too much more stress and depression cuz it just aint fun!
I havent had any weird cravings much.. When I was pregnant with Kinsey I craved ice all the time and I loved the smell of wet cement!! I soon found out that my iron was extremely low haha so any food cravings this time around dont seem out of the norm. and I am sure to eat enough iron rich foods so I dont go around wanting to eat rocks and lick the wet cement hahaha
My belly is constantly moving from this little girl! She moves around so much it makes me wonder if she ever sleeps. Any time my belly gets bumped or Kinsey pokes it, she goes crazy! The dr told me last time she is no longer breach but I think she is moving around so much that she goes from head down to breach everyday lol. She is very strong as well. She has dislocated a couple of my ribs from her powerful kicks/punches and I wouldnt be surprised if I end up with a broken rib one day! I am glad she is having fun in there and is moving around lots :) Thats the best part of a pregnancy is feeling your baby move around inside you!

Come over tomorrow! I am SOOO glad I found your blog (way adorable by the way). I'm having a couple of friends from the neighborhood come over tomorrow after 3:00 (after naps...) - Kinsey and Chelsea were so cute together, we'd love it if you guys could come!
