3-hour glucose test.... :O/

I failed the 1-hour glucose test..... ugh! So I got the privledge of taking the 3-hour glucose test today. I was praying and hoping I wouldn't have to do this again. I took this test twice while I was pregnant with Owen. Lots of poking and no food... not a fun way to spend the day. Thankfully Nathan came with me. Armed with our iPhones and the awesome game Words with Friends, the time passed quickly. I almost passed out on the 1-hour drawing... the vein the nurse tried was clotted from the initial draw however she moved the needle all over before going to my other arm. I'm so glad Nate was there with Riley and me taking care of us!

I haven't heard back from the doctor yet on my results. I am really praying that I passed it or at the least am borderline gestational diabetic. I was borderline with Owen and paid very close attention to my diet and worked out as best the belly allowed. The main goal is to get Riley here safely and to keep both of us healthy! So we'll do whatever it takes.

Wiggle Monster at 28 weeks

Riley is super wiggly! She's flipping and twirling all over the place reshaping my belly throughout the day. We had a great 28 week check-up. We got to hear her strong heartbeat. I took the 1-hour glucose screening test today. We're saying a prayer the test comes back negative and I'm not gestational diabetic.

Last Saturday we went to Jase's 3rd birthday. Here's a photo of Owen with all the other kiddos. Waiting around for a group picture is very hard when you're a year and a half old...
We've got ears, say cheers!

6 month comparison

Can you tell which belly photo is Owen and which is Riley? Both are at about 6 months pregnant.

More on Riley's room

I found this great company online that makes custom wooden letters so I ordered Riley's name. They arrived yesterday! They are 10-in tall and unfinished. I'm not sure how I'll paint them yet, but I'm really excited at how awesome they look. Here's a picture of them:

Part 2: More bedding arrived! Now we have her crib bumper pads, crib sheets, quilt, crib bed skirt, standard pillow and rug (not in the picture). I think she is going to love all the colors and textures AND that this will transition into an adorable big girl room. :O)

98 days!

We're officially in the double digits for our count down to Riley's arrival! Yeah! I'm so excited to meet the little one that kicks me all the time. Of course we all know babies come when they want to... so 98 days until 40-weeks, full term. However, we'll just see as we get closer. Miss Riley-girl will probably have her own agenda. :O)

Ouchie!

Owen had his first big bobo yesterday at school. He was running outside at the playground, tripped and ate it on the concrete. Here's a picture of his poor little nose! He's been very good about letting me put a little Neosporin on it. My poor baby!

Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter weekend! Here are some pictures.




Owen figured out he could sit and splash! Until he fell in... he did great! Didn't panick, started kicking his arms and legs. And Daddy and Papau were right there to scoop him out. However, it was enough to royally freak Mommy out!
