oh the joys of pregnancy...

Oh the joys of pregnancy! I am really beginning to doubt...is this normal?? It seems as if each doctors visit brings on more bad news, now I have high glucose, which equals gestational diabetes. I am limited on what I can eat. Thank goodness it isn't really high, she said like no insulin or 3 hour screening tests or anything like that, but still cause for concern. For now will control it with diet and will do the regular blood draws to monitor the blood sugar, she said that the one big concern is me having too big of a baby now, I am a little person, there is no way...I have my next ultrasound in 3 weeks to see if things have moved up or not, (at my last ultrasound they diagnosed me with a low placenta) and if it hasen't I am looking at a c-section anyways, so we shall see. I am just so frustrated, I am not sure I will be having anymore kids after this one, but we'll see. May just have 1 really spoiled one, which is something I always said I wouldn't have, but how many other times in life have I said "I'll never" and then I do, it is something I am trying not to say anymore, because it has bit me in the butt too many times.

weekend away

Two weeks ago, Hubby and I had a great weekend. He surprised me with tickets to a Kenny Chesney concert in Missouri about 8 hours away. He said he would have bought the tickets to one more local but, it wasn't until the end of July, just days before the baby was due, so he decided what the heck and bought these. No complaints here!! IT WAS SOOO AWESOME!!! I think he is so hot and seeing him in person, WOW, We had a really great time! The hardest part was the fact that he wouldn't tell me where we were going until we were actually there, I was going crazy trying to figure it out, he though it was funny, but it was really sweet! He is really sweet! The concert lasted about 3 hours, and we left shortly after midnight, there were sooo many people and lots of them drunk so we saw some interesting things, like for instance it was prom night for the local high school and there were 3 girls there in prom dresses holding signs saying "we missed our prom for you Kenny" and so on... then on the way home, we stopped at the John Deere thing in Moline IL. where we toured the factory where they make combines, it was interesting, but my husband LOVED it, he is a John Deere fan all the way, we even have a bathroom in our house completely done in John Deere, and he collects all kinds of tractors and stuff, anyways, he had a hard time choosing from the gift shop, ended up spending LOTS of money, but oh well, he did pick out something for the baby, he got a little ride on 4-wheeler, it is so cool, it makes all kinds of noises and the turn sgnals light up and go "tink, tink, tink" anyways, he can't wait til the baby can ride it. I'm telling ya the baby is spoiled all ready!! Anyways, it was fun to go, but nice to come home, I say it will be the last vacation for a few years, Nick says we will probably go somewhere next year and leave the baby with my parents, I doubt it, I probably won't be willing to leave the baby. We'll see who wins. In the meantime I feel so blessed to have such a sweet husband who would even think to do something so nice for me!
