30 Weeks
30 weeks and counting...I will admit that part of me is freaking out that our sweet Lily Kate will be here in 10 weeks and the other part is so excited that I can hardly stand it. We are getting ready slowly but surely. It is so much fun to see so much pink in our house...a house that has been overrun with blue for almost 3 years now. Cole is really getting in to the idea that pink is for his "baby sis" (that is what he has been calling her lately) and blue is for him. I am still feeling very well. The heat ... oh, the heat... is really getting to me as I have mentioned. I mean, 100 degrees, really?! It turns out that I do have gestational diabetes. Very borderline but still I am watching my diet very closely. To date my blood sugars have been excellent and Lily Kate is growing at a very normal rate so things are looking A-Ok. I did not have any trouble with Cole so we were a little shocked that I failed my glucose test but I know that every pregnancy is different. The diet, although annoying at times, has really not been too bad. I am seeing my doctor every 2 weeks now and love getting to hear my sweet girl's heart beat. Our friends, Keisha and Ryan, welcomed their second baby boy (Ethan) into the world last week and it was so fun to hold him and dream about holding my baby. I remember that with Cole too - the day dreaming and planning. As I was holding Ethan and talking with Keisha it hit me...hard...I am next!!!! Wow - I think I am starting to panic a little bit again :)
