yuck...

just a quick update because i have a few seconds to spare for once in my busy day..

tomorrow is my dreaded glucose test!  i say dreaded because the drink is NASTY and i got lucky enough to drink it twice with Kinsey because i didnt pass the first time. i have tried the orange, lemon lime and now this time i am going to try fruit punch... i got so sick with them last time and i am hoping i dont feel the same tomorrow because it will make for one LONG day!  i know, i know, all im doing is complaining but unless you have had this sugar drink you have no idea how nasty it is.  i am thankful they check for gestational diabetes because i want my baby girl as healthy as can be.  so i will just "woman" up and do it for her! :)

this pregnancy is going quite well.  i will be 28 weeks on friday and i cant believe she will be here so soon!  i havent really done anything with the nursery which is scary because i have a huge hole to patch, tons of prepping to do to all the walls, paint, find bedding that i like, and get the carpets cleaned, get new blinds, and decorate.  and on top of that, i have decided to make Kinsey a quilt for her new "big girl" bed she will get when her sister arrives because i just cant find any bedding that i cant live without for her room.  plus it will be fun to say i made it for her :)  I have never made a quilt before so wish me luck.. PLEASE!  sleeping at night is getting quite fun, NOT!  the other night i slept like a baby though and the only reason i think is because i slept on my back all night!! i woke up to feeling so dizzy, light headed, and had sever vertigo because of the lack of blood flow from being on my back, YIKES!  i usually have pillows all around me supporting everything so i dont know how this happened but it did.  i have been feeling really down lately as well because of my weight gain.  i should be fine with gaining weight because its for a good cause, but i can no longer fit into my favorite jeans (yes i did cry when i realized it), and nothing is comfortable to wear besides sweats!  i hate not having a cute outfit to put on and make myself feel all pretty :(  i get ready everyday with my hair, make up and all then to top it off i put on my sweat pants and t-shirt.  it just isnt fun lol  i am hoping my dang butt doesnt gain any more weight so that i can at least have a couple pairs of jeans to wear this winter.  if not, i will have to cave and buy me some maternity pants...

now onto a happy note :)  Kinsey is doing amazing!!! she is now singing her ABC's and if you start singing with her to help her out she puts her finger to her lips and says "shhhh" so she can finish lol  my favorite part is when she says l-m-n-o-p.  its all slurred together and it is the cutest thing EVER!!  she is quite the diva and if things arent her way, its the highway.  we have had several melt downs the past week where she puts her hands over her face and fake cries, or thows herself to the ground and peeks to see if anyone is watching.  it is so hard not to laugh because she is so DRAMA!!! but if  you laugh it just makes her even more upset so i usually have to walk into another room lol  one example was this morning for her morning snack she wanted string cheese so i got one out and i tear it in half because thats all she eats anyways and ends up throwing the rest away but she didnt like that! she through her half at me and sprawled out onto the kitchen floor and screamed!!! i dont ever give into her or let her act that way to get something so i had to walk into another room and act busy while she was out there screaming in furry haha it lasted about 15 min, NO JOKE!  then she realized she didnt get anything so she came to me, gave me a hug on the leg, and asked for her string cheese.  when i gave her half she looked at me and said "dank you" and acted like nothing ever happened lol i am very, very, very scared to see what she is going to be like as a teenager!

i have been so busy lately since school started and it is def paying off! i am on my 4th week of the semester and i am already half way done! i have worked my butt off to get ahead and finish by nov. 1st because i am due the week of finals and my professors have worked with me to get ahead and they will allow me to do finals early!  my eczema is killing me from all the stress but it is so worth it haha i am so glad i am able to be a stay at home mommy and focus on my kiddos and school.  brandon works so hard for this family and i feel like i dont thank him enough!  he drives about 2 hours each day to and from work and never complains.  he is such a dedicated employee and manager to his employees, and i know the main reason is because he knows he has this family to support.  brandon has also helped me out a TON with kinsey.  he will watch her from the time he wakes up to the time he goes to work so i can get some homework done.  he even watches her most the day on his days off so i can be glued to the computer or up on campus taking tests.  he is such a great support to me and i LOVE it!  i couldnt have gotten this far already if it wasnt for him :)  and i wouldnt be where i am today if it wasnt for him!  i am happy and so releived to say he is MINE, all mine, forever and ever! I love you babe!

well i will update you all when i have have another spare min after my appointment tomorrow :)
