Failed Glucose Test

So today I failed my glucose test at my OB appointment.  I'm none too pleased.  For starters I have never had this with either one of my last pregnancies.  I am a pretty healthy girl and while I do admit I have been eating much less healthy with this pregnancy (can you say fast food anyone?) diabetic I am not.  My test was 168 which they said was way too high.  SO now I have to go back tomorrow morning and sit at the Dr.'s office for 3 hours.  I think I'm more P/O'd about having to waste half a day of PTO.  And basically there isn't anything they can do about it except send me to a nutritionist (which I don't need to go too) and have me buy a blood test thing (which I don't need - I'm pretty sure my Dad can let me use his since he never uses it).  I feel like calling my Dr. back and telling her, "Look, I get it...and I have been eating some real crap lately - - SOOOOO here's the deal I am going to eat much healthier from now on - problem solved." I mean do I look like I have gestational diabetes??


 Not a happy lady today!

Another Monday

Today is just another typical Monday for me.  Early to bed, early to rise.  I'm so overtired lately and it's because I am not sleeping well at all.  I have had a horrible headache for two days that just won't go away.  I even took Tylenol but it didn't do anything.  This is leading me to think I am for sure having another girl.  Although, I don't remember having headaches with Kaylie or Kelly but for some reason I just think that is a symptom of having a girl.  Also, we sold our old washing machine and dryer to a lady in our neighborhood and out of the blue she said, "What are you having, a girl?" I said, "We don't know." Then she said, "Ohhhhh...well I worked in a maternity store for 12 years so I can just tell".  Of course Bryan said I shouldn't listen to her but I think she might be right.  We are just destined to have a house full of girls.  I guess God wants to bless us with a bunch of Jennifer's because I am so much fun.  LOL.  All I know is please Lord help us when they start hitting the teen years.  ;)

One of my favs

One of my favorite bloggers Shannon (http://www.lifeafteridew.com/) did a blog today called the real me and it was so cute.  I'm coping her post today (I also copy her So What Wed.  - gee maybe I should come up with my own stuff, huh?!)  Here goes:

If you really knew me....

  • You'd know my first car was a brand new Pontiac Sunfire.
  • You'd know my second car was a brand new Camaro Z28 that I LOVED more than anything in the world!
  • You'd know I love German Shepherds b/c growing up our family pet was a black german shepherd named, Smokey.
  • You'd know I was a pretty wild child going through my teen years (that is putting it mildly).
  • You'd know I once got an MIP (minor in possession) for having a pack of cigarettes in my car.  My parents were always so cool to me about stuff like this...yes I got in trouble BUT they hired an attorney and it was a super young attorney, like his first case ever and he managed to get the MIP dismissed...I will never forget my Dad high-fiving the lawyer in the hall outside of the court room!!  LOL!
  • You'd know Bryan and I have been together since we were 16 years old (okay with lots of breakups and makeups in those early years).
  • You'd know Bryan and I lived in 3 different apartments before buying our first house.
  • You'd know we got married, bought our first house and had our first baby all within 4 months of each other and all at the age of 23.  That was a stressful year!!
  • You'd know I'm crazy close to my parents and I love it that way!

That's all I have for now...happy Friday!

A few random things...

Kelly is taking more and more steps it's so neat to see, scary but neat.  Last night she took about 3-4 for Bryan to see.  And that was a special treat b/c he missed the first day due to working late.  My work is driving me crazy, I feel like it's such a mess.  Between management changes, work load & lack of direction the whole office is just a mess.  I also wrote an article for our company newsletter that was well written, entertaining and perfectly described our business only to have our Sales/Marketing manager turn it into a blah-blah-blah BORING article.  Even my direct boss (who is way over the sales manager) was disappointed.  Kaylie has been awesome this week, helpful, sweet, positive and not giving me any attitude.  Obviously I am loving it!

SO What Wednesday!

This week I am saying so what to....

  • I let Coby sleep on our bed in the middle of the night b/c he sneaks on and then I don't have the energy to kick him off.
  • I am crazy-crazy-crazy about never having dishing in my sink.  It is one of my biggest pet-peeves to see dishes sitting in the sink.  It seriously takes 1 sec to put them in the dishwasher!
  • Since becoming pregnant (again) I have been eating fast food like 3 days a week...it's so gross and totally not like me but it tastes so good.  Yesterday I had Burger King Sweet Potato Fries - the commercial made them look so good, but they were just okay.
  • I feel like I wear sandals or flip flops a lot more to work lately. I feel so guilty b/c I used to say that was so not OKAY in the office.  And really I still think it's not okay but I do it anyway. 
  • I am actually happy I am going on maternity leave so I can get out of my office for a few months.
  • I love Big Brother...and I think Willie got a bad deal.

1st Steps

The babysitter sent me a text today letting me know Kelly took her 1st steps!!!  Of course I am sad it happened with the sitter and not with me, but it's okay she will be doing it all the time soon enough.  She is starting to wave, walk and soon talk!  I just know any minute she is going to say bye-bye. 

Look at that little butterball...don't you just want to kiss her!!

Happy Monday

Well as usual the weekend flew right by.  We did have a pretty good weekend though.  Kaylie stayed at my parents house Friday night so it was just me, Bryan and Kelly.  We went to Sam's (for Diapers - it's the only place I will buy them) and then out to dinner.  Kelly waved for the 1st time at the people sitting across from our table.  It was super cute!  I was in shock and the lady felt so proud that she - a complete stranger shared in that moment with us.  Oh how life has changed from bar hopping or even just sitting at home and drinking to diaper runs, dinner and the excitement of our baby's 1st wave.  ;)  And you know what, I really love it.  Saturday was the usual errands, grocery store, cleaning, laundry, mowing the law, etc. Sunday morning we went to church and then had Nana, Pop, Aunt Cydni, Joven, Ellye, & Michael over for lunch/dinner.  So it was a nice weekend...and I have to add I wasn't loving my new Tahoe until this weekend...and you know what I actually really love it now!  So that is a plus!  I guess it just needed to grow on me.
