Well it's been a while since I've posted so I'll give everyone an update. I had my glucose test on Tuesday and was expecting a phone call on Friday with the results, but after 4:00 and no call, I decided to call them. I get the message that the office is closed. Apparently they close at 12:30 on Fridays. I'll just assume that if I have gestational diabetes then I would have gotten a call. Either way I have an appointment on Tuesday and will know for sure then. I have a sinus infection with a sore throat and congestion, headaches, I swear the whole left side of my head is just one big pain. 

I had to take Brandon to the doctor on Wednesday. He has had this horrible cough for a while now and it seemed to be getting worse. We think that he has asthma so we're trying out an asthma medication. It has stopped his wheezy breathing but his cough and runny nose haven't improved. So we are to avoid cats, especially long haired cats, cigarette smoke, even the smell on someones clothes can irritate his lungs, and heavy exercise which isn't really a problem yet. 

We have a mouse. John's dad came over yesterday and set some traps. This morning when I got up and checked we had one under the sink. The trap that was under the counter was triggered but no mouse, the peanut butter was all gone though. We'll have to set them up again. So in a way I'm glad that it worked so soon. I was thinking it would take a couple of days. Now we just have to seal up the holes and figure out where they are coming in from. 

John and I bought some meat from a guy who just butchered a cow so we shouldn't be wanting for a steak or roast for quite a while. 9 chuck roasts, 1 tri tip, 1 Flank, 8 Ribeyes, 3 packages of stew meat, 2 sirloin tip roasts, 7 t-bones, 3 short ribs, 3 tenderloins, 2 rump roasts, 13 round steaks, 9 top sirloin, and about 50 or so 8 oz. packages of hamburger... 

Well I need to get going. Brandon is finding things to eat. This morning while I was getting ready to head out he took a nice bite of John's deoderant. I swear this boy...

Crappy doctor's appointment. First, they were really backed up and it took a while to be seen, which was fine, i was knitting and Brandon was having a good time looking at all the people waiting. Then I have my blood tested for the glucose screening test and I didn't pass. No good. So then I have to make an appointment to have the three hour test done. And for the three days prior I have to eat a specific diet and gosh, no smoking... ;-) So I am not looking forward to that, My blood pressure is great, but my weight was so so. It seems like when ever I "brag" about how little weight I've gained it'll go up and then I'm embarrassed. The doctor told me I was measuring at 29 weeks.... I'm only 25 weeks. So either we were way off on the dates or like he said around 28 weeks I'll start to measure more accurately. Or maybe I just have a gigantic baby inside me. After all my uterus is the size of a soccer ball right now... The scars on my face that are darkening are what the medical professionals like to call melasma. It has to do with the pigment in my skin darkening... I asked him what pigment.... I have none. Apparently there is nothing you can do about it yeah for me.

Well that is all I have to report for right now. I'm really tired and want to nap. Do you think I'll get one? Brandon is asleep in the car, maybe I'll nap for 30 minutes until I hear him cry to come and get him
