Boy has time flown. I am now 34 weeks pregnant and realizing that very soon I will be meeting Maverick. I can say that I have officially kicked into the nesting mode, that is as much as my body is allowing me to. it likes to kick my butt sometime to remind me that I'm not superwoman. lol. I do have a couple of pregnancy bump photos that I should probably post. More will come when I get our family pictures from the photographer, the fabulous Diana Prince on friday.
Here is me on Valentines day:
and here I am again a couple weeks ago from one of the preview family pictures
Needless to say I am into full waddling mode. lol.
I did get diagnosed with borderline gestational diabetes, basically there are two or three factors you can fail to be fully diagnosed with it and I failed one but because my fasting bloodsugar was the fail (too high) they want to treat me like I fully have it. SO I have to poke my finger up to 4 times a day and watch my diet like a hawk. quite annoying but oh well, I want to keep Maverick and myself healthy so I have to do what I have to do. We had an ultrasound on March 23rd because I have lost a fair amount of weight since I got pregnant (obviously not on my stomach but in other places lol) and they wanted to make sure he was developing all right. He was doing fantastic weighing 4 pounds 6 ounces. I have a doctor's appointment this friday and then another in two weeks which an ultrasound is attatched to so we shall see how big he is growing at that point.
Today I am supposed to get my co-sleeper in the mail, I can wait and hopefully it will work with how our room is situated. I have a pack in play with a bassinet feature but it would be too big and take up too much space in our room so I got this as a better option. The reason for getting this instead of a regular bassinett was because if I end up having to have a c section due to him being too big because of the gestational diabetes than I wouldn't have to pick him up at night to breast feed but rather scoot him over. what can I say, I like to be prepared...sometimes too prepared as Jeremy likes to tell me. lol.
Rogue is getting bigger and bigger. the crazy toots is now into 5T- XS in girls. I just had to replenish her wardrobe. I hope she didn't get all the height and that maverick won't be short. lol. She is learning her ABC's and other words. it is amazing how her vocabulary is getting longer and longer so quickly. Potty training is going slowly. mostly because we aren't pushing it. Neither of us wanted to get her fully potty trained, have the baby come and then her revert back and have to start over. so we are waiting to really get into it after Maverick comes and things calm down. Right now I just put her potty seat on the toilet before her showers (yeah, no more baths...she loves just taking showers now) and leave it there until after she is dressed. and typically she goes pee before hand and sometimes gets out of the shower to go again and then get back in.
Got a rocking chair, it is actually a recliner that rocks but still love it!!! Got it from our friends Jim and Angie. I will definetely love it on those late nights with Maverick. it is very comfortable!!
We also got a swing set for Rogue. it has a slide on it too which is her favorite. She LOVES going outside to play. Right now due to the weather it is touch and go when we can go out to play but I can't wait till this summer when she can go out a lot more.
Well, I should probably go, some organizing is calling my name!

Rogue is getting so big! She looks just like you. Cara is wearing 5T too. Those kids are like weeds! Hang in there, almost at the finish line, and the prize is awesome.
