baby cabbage

28 weeks down, and I now have a 15-inch long, 2 1/4 pound little one rolling in my tummy! Time is flying by, but we really don't mind :) We have nearly everything we need, minus the small things that I am sure we will get during my baby showers. My parents are also bringing out a car-full of stuff that they have found for baby. I think they have been just a little bit excited! I am really looking forward to spending time with my mom as we set up and decorate the baby's room. There is just something about having your mother around when you are pregnant! I am glad I get to spend a few days every month with her for the next 4 months or so. I am just hoping they can both make it across the 1,000 miles we live apart in time for our little bundle of joy's arrival!!!

My dad also made us a gliding rocking chair for our nursery. I am beyond thrilled to get it in Kemry's cute little room! It looks amazing, and I am so lucky to have such amazing parents who care so much about us, even when they are so far away!

Isn't it beautiful?!?

 
In other, somewhat depressing news, I have now passed Tyrel in weight. Boo. I guess it isn't too much of an accomplishment since he hardly weighs any more than I did pre-pregnancy, but at least I am moving up!

Today I went in for my glucose tolerance test. Luckily, after one sick, nasty little drink, an hour of waiting, one vial of blood, and a flu shot, I passed with flying colors. I was dreading having to go in again for the three-hour test, but now I don't have to worry about it (thank heavens). I also have no guilt diving into our heaping bowl of post-Halloween candy...bring on the sweets :)
