So, Earth day has come and gone and I hope everyone implemented a change in their life that will benefit not only the earth, but also help Elliana live in a better environment.
Anyways, yesterday I had a doctors appt. I took the YUMMY glucose test...an overly sugar drink (just like how Ryan makes Koolaid) and you have to chug it in 3 minutes...YUCK! Then you get to wait around for an hour so they can take your blood to see if you may have gestational diabetes. I won't have my results for a few days so keep your fingers crossed that I don't have to go back for additional testing. I also found out that I DON'T have to get the RH shot. Because Ryan is a negative blood type & I am positive I thought I might, but luckily I don't. YEAH! I have to say this past appointment might have been one of my favorites. The baby is head first and very active. The ticker is still pumping the way it should be. I still need to be careful of my weight but I am doing good. Plus, we scheduled the rest of my appointments up till my due date...that was pretty exciting for me! The doc said Elliana was a little chunky monkey but with 11 more weeks to go she will be fine. Ryan told Doctor Burns that he had some money down on how much our baby would weight, so he needed her assessment. She went with 7 pounds 12 ounces...so this may help all of you with the GUESSING!
As you may of seen, we've added a new GUESSING tool to the blog. Please click on the ExpectNet.com logo to put in your guess of date, time, length and weight Miss Elliana will be born at. Many have asked for mine and Ryan's birth details. I was born 7lbs9oz , 21 inches long at 10:08 pm. Ryan was 7lbs10oz, 20-1/4 inches long at 9:42 am. GOOD Luck in your guessing!
The Morris family came out for their Spring Break. It is always nice to spend time with family. Ryan took them on a hiking adventure. Luckily, Las Vegas treated them with some nice weather and they treated us with some good eats!
This weekend (April 24-27), I am headed to Colorado for a baby shower. I am really looking forward to the trip. It seems like I haven't been home in forever. Yes, I still consider Colorado home! It has been tough being away from my mom and dad during this process. I think we chat 2 to 3 times a day, at least. All in all this will be a great visit. Friends, family, pampering and celebration. What else could a gal ask for?
Nicole is planning a shower here is Vegas on May 10th with local friends. That is mother's day weekend...so I surprised my mom by buying her a flight out here. I think she is pretty excited for the quick trip and that she will be able to be here for the gathering.
Ryan had the fun excitement of taking Mya to the vet this week for her annual exam. Mya is doing great. She got her nails trimmed and she has lost a few ounces :). I had to include a picture since I think she is the cutest pup ever!
