28 Weeks

Hello Third Trimester (one day early)!  My appointment this week went well.  Baby Girl's heart rate was strong and within normal range, and I measured right on track.  I had to do the one hour glucose test, and like with Graham, my glucose came back slightly elevated.  This means that tomorrow I will be doing the 3 hour test in order to determine whether or not I have gestational diabetes.  I'm hoping that, like with Graham, everything will come back normal after this test.  However, if the results did show that I had gestational diabetes, I would most likely have to watch my diet (restricted sugar and carbs) and would be monitored closely by my doctor (more frequent visits, although I have moved from monthly visits to every 2 weeks since I'm in the third trimester now anyways).  Not too big of a deal.  Here is the monthly belly picture!  I've definitely noticed some growth this past week!

Keep growing Baby Girl!

Brrrr!

We have been having quite the cold snap here in Colorado!  We have had temperatures in the negatives and single digits for the last several days.  We even had some snow a few days ago.

Shoveling with Grandma

Despite incredibly cold temperatures, G loved being outside

All snuggled up so he can hang out in with Daddy in the man cave in the garage

What else is there to do when it's this cold out?  Spend time on your tablet!
