Jim got to go for a walk today, and we learned we definitely need to take him out more. He hasn't been on a walk in a while because I've had no energy and because he's been sick, so Shane took him out today and I met them there in the car. He used to do really well ... today ... not so much. He got loose from the leash and almost got hit by a car. He also wasn't listening very well. However, we did get some good pictures while we were at the "park". It's more of a landscape waterfall, but it's absolutely gorgeous out there. Anyway, enjoy!
I was trying to get a picture of him laying in the grass, but he moved as I took it and I thought it looked like he was laughing. I thought it was cute.
I love these two, and can't wait until we have another boy to add to the pictures. I s'pose I could have just put my belly in there too.
There's a little waterfall there, and Jim loves to get in the water. When he was little he was really aprehensive of water, but now he just jumps in.
Shane stole the camera for a little bit.
I thought this was cute, and I only got it because Shane didn't know I was taking pictures.
I measured at 41 1/2 in, so just a little bigger than last week.
So I was spared the dreaded morning sickness at the beginning of my pregnancy. I didn't really have a whole lot to complain about throughout any of it so far either. However, ever since I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes, I have been throwing up. It's only happened 4 times, and it's usually in the evening when I don't eat the best for the day. Well, I was woken up with it tonight. It started at about 1:30am and didn't think I was going to make it to the bathroom. I actually had a dream that I was going into labor, so when I woke up it was pretty scary. So I'm sitting here at almost 3 am, afraid to go back to bed because my stomach hasn't quite settled down yet.
I was out of most of my "healthy" stuff today, and had cereal for breakfast, a burger from Jack in the Box that my brother in law was nice enough to get me, a couple string cheeses, a granola bar, and then before I went to bed I had dinner, a waffle. I can only imagine that's what did it to me. What stinks is I never did make it to the store today and Shane has to take my car to work since his truck needs to be taken to the shop, so I'm stuck here without a car.
Well, I'm sick of it, so I'm going to eat the best I can tomorrow, and go to the store and eat better the rest of the next 8 weeks. What's weird is that there are days when I've eaten worse that that, and been perfectly fine. So it makes me wonder if there isn't some other reason for it all. Especially since at my last appointment, my doctor said that my gestational diabetes was so borderline, that what I eat shouldn't really affect me. I just needed to watch my sugar intake so I don't produce too much insulin for Tayson.
It's funny because every time I do worship the porcelain god, Tayson always responds by kicking harder than usual. I can't say I blame him though. I think I probably would kick someone too if I was woken up like that. Poor little guy. Anyway, since this is my 32 week mark, when I re-wake up I will post some more pictures of my belly, so we can all see if it's grown any. I feel huge, but I did last week too and I hadn't really grown a whole lot. I will also measure myself to see that way as well.
Deanna, I wish you all the best on Drew's surgery. I'm sorry I'm not the only one up so late, or, early. I love you guys and wish you the best!
I've been asked by quite a few people what Tayson still needs, so I put a list over to the right. We'll take stuff off as we get it, and hopefully the list will slowly but surely get shorter and shorter. Thank you to everyone who has helped out already. I really appreciate everything everyone has done!
