Well, the nursery is finally complete! It has actually been updated since these pictures were taken, and I will post those pictures when I get them on the computer!
Since my last post, a few things have happened in Graysonland. I passed my glucose test with flying colors, so I won't be cutting bread, cookies or chocolate out of my diet in the near (or distant) future. That being said, I had my first break down at the Dr's office. I personally think I've had a very steady and healthy weight gain over the course of the last 30 weeks. At my 28 weeks appointment, I had only gained 18 pounds, primarily in 2 places, and I'm pretty sure you can guess what those are. The doctor who I was seeing that day came in and said that my weight gain was "okay" but that "I had gained 3 pounds in the last three weeks." I'm thinking, "And your point is...Have you seen my husbands head (or mine for that matter)? I don't think we are dealing with an itty bitty baby here." I tried to suck it up, but failed miserably when the next words out of her mouth were "Is there any area that you think you can cut back?" Umm, it's a little late for the Jenny Craig heart to heart. Tears start pouring down, and after convincing me that it was "just the hormones," (and not the fact that she basically called me a whale in front of my husband) I sucked it up and went about my way.
I returned a few weeks later for my 30 week appointment, and I had gained 2.9 pounds. The Dr. I saw this time didn't say a word. I guess that last .1 pound really makes a difference!! ANYWAY, the Dr. said I was doing great and everything continues to look good on paper. Prayers continue to be answered!
I finally got Jason to take a picture of Grayson which included my face to prove that I actually am his Mommy! Every belly pic that has been taken thus far has been exactly that...a BELLY pic.
Speaking of Jason, it looks like I ran him off again! Last week he spent 5 days in Arizona, and came home just in time to leave again for California. I knew I was eating a lot, but I didn't think I was starving the poor guy, and literally eating him out of THE HOUSE. Must have been, because all I've heard since he has been gone is "In and Out Burger," this and that. I'm 80% happy for him, and only 20% jealous. The hubby comes back tomorrow though, and he promised this is the last time he will leave town without me having someone to keep me company (Grayson). :)
Well, that's all that mattered to me on this Wednesday, (did you like that Jason)? I hope everyone is having a great week, and all my fellow Mommy's to Be are getting the rest and loving that they deserve!
