Happenings in our House

So, it's been a while...things have been busy around here! Last week we went to the capitol city to go to the doctor. It was time for me to have my glucose test. I pretty much knew that I wouldn't pass the one hour test because I didn't pass it with Sadie. And of course, I didn't. But this time it was higher, much higher than last time. So, I had to come back the next morning for the 3 hour test. Did I mention how much I hate drinking the glucose stuff? Well, I do. I almost gagged..I have to get it down fast enough without thinking about it..well, anyway, I took the 3 hour test and didn't pass it either..wasn't expecting that one! So..gestational diabetes it is...no fun at all! I am headed back to the doctor on Thursday and get my glucometer and see exactly what I can eat. I have already been trying to stay strictly to a diet and boy is it hard! I LOVE sweets so this is a new adjustment for me, but I am thankful that Father is giving me will power to get through it because I hardly ever have will power at all! So. keep praying...for the health of me and sweet little Jackson!
Clark had to head to the capitol city of our country last week. It's crazy that he had to fly somewhere just to see a dentist :) But he did, and PTL all is well with his 4 teeth (his fillings had popped out) and he is doing great!! Sadie and I had some good girl time and we were both so ready for daddy to be home.
So, we are getting down to the wire, only 4 1/2 weeks left until we head out of country. I can not believe how quickly this pregnancy is going, I am already 30 weeks pregnant and we leave in a month to prepare for Jackson's birth. It seems like yesterday I was announcing the newest family member.
Well, I should go for now, Sadie is down for the night and Clark and I are going to relax and spend time together...gotta get all of this time in before the little bit makes his way into the world ...
