Ok, So i know its been forever since i’ve posted, But theres just been so much going on that its been hard to keep up. I apologize, and I will try to keep this updated more often. =] Jordan is turning one on the 27th, and is a healthy, happy young boy.

We’ve been through alot, issues with his dad, with my family, the county, etc. But we came out on top, so its all ok =].

I made my decision to start school, and find a job, and in doing so i made the decision to have jordan stay with my mom until i finished school and could support us. Its probably the hardest thing ever. Probably harder than the birth. Every day that I dont see him, I think about him constantly. Did he just take his first steps? Does he wonder where i go? 3 more days til i see him. I can make it three more days. When i finally get to see him, there is nothing more precious then the look of pure love that i get from him. Or those sloppy open mouth kisses. Everything I do right now is only for him. Well, its late, and i have school in the morning, So im going to sign off right now. But don’t worry. For those of you who will still read this, I’ll be back again soon. =]

So Jordan has decided that he is most comfortable, when snuggled between my ribs. It makes the BH’s so much more UNcomfortable.

I’ll be happy once he’s settled on poking my ribs from the OUTside. That hurts a lot less.

I’m trying to get my sister to do a guest post. She has no idea what to post about though. Any ideas?

I went in for my lab today. Glad thats over and done with. Thankfully, they used a different type of needle this time. This one had a tube, so that the vial for getting the blood isn’t right next to your arm. It’s a much smaller needle and hurts a ton less.

Don’t even get me started on the nasty tang stuff. Actually, it smells just like Sunkist. So i was fooled when i opened it.

Hmm. Maybe this wont be so bad after all…

Then i took a sip. I wanted to throw up right away. For anyone reading this that has yet to do they’re Glucose testing, it is much easier to chug the stuff, if you have it in a glass and use a straw than from the bottle. It is carbonated, and that tiny bottle does not make for an easy drink. Heck. The drink itself does not make for an easy drink.

Now hes moving around down south again. Pick a spot already!!!

I have my next appointment in two weeks. Its hard to believe that i am almost 30 weeks. It has been going by so fast. I almost dont want it to end. ( I’m kind of liking the everyone taking care of me thing. =] ) But at the same time, I cant wait for it to be over.  I’m also thinking this blog will be getting a little bit more interesting once Jordan is born. =]

We have new baby kittens again. Six of them this time. They are SOOOOO cute! I will post some pictures once i upload them. =]

So i wake up today with absolutely NO energy. After breakfast, i went back upstairs to grab something, and some how ended up passing out on my bed for 2 hours. I don’t even remember climbing on to my bed.

Mom says I’m entering my “miserable stage” of pregnancy. No energy, back pain every day. Feeling like i just want this to be over with already.

I am not looking forward to that.

It doesn’t help that i have walking pneumonia as mom calls it. This stupid cough hasn’t gone away. If its not gone by Thursday, I’m going to have to see the Dr. instead of just having a lab visit.
On the bright side, I’ve been watching Tori and Dean, Home Sweet Hollywood, and at least i haven’t been having contractions like she has. I’ve been experiencing Braxton Hicks to some degree, but they’re just more uncomfortable than painful.

I’m tired, so i will update more tomorrow probably, when i have more energy.

Since absolutely no one has left me alone on the topic, I decided, why not immortalize my humongeousness on my blog as well!

The shirt doesnt help anything…

this ones my favorite.

Attack of the killer stretch marks!

I swear! I did NOT swallow that watermelon!

And now. My fatness is forever Immortalized.

Whats the first thing that comes to mind when you think Tang?

For me, its to sugary, to orange-y, and all around nasty.

So its no wonder that when my mom told me that the orange drink that i was going to have to drink tasted like tang, i immediately threw up a little bit in the back of my mouth.

When you hit twenty eight weeks in your pregnancy, you get the wonderful (wonderfully nasty) Glucose test, to check for gestational diabetes. They tell you to drink this orange, clear, or lime drink, as fast as you can mind you, and then come to the doctors office no more than forty five minutes after you’re done with the drink.

Orange drink

Why?

Because exactly an hour after you’re done with the drink, they have to draw blood. Also not one of my favorite activities.

Don’t think that your in luck if you have no history of diabetes in your family. Every pregnant woman gets tested.

My aunt Robin had gestational diabetes in her last pregnancy. I watched her several times check her blood sugar and give herself insulin.

Now I dont know about you, but i am not such a big fan of needles. They scare me quite a bit. (Don’t ask me how i made it two years on Depo-Provera.)

I am hoping beyond hope that i pass this test next week.

Otherwise I am at risk of going into diabetic shock, because i was to scared to check my blood pressure.
