Everyday Stuff

Nothing much new going on lately so I thought I would post a couple of cutes pics I have of Keira over the past couple of days. I caught her watching TV laying right in front of it. Usually she stands right in front of the screen or sits on the couch or at least farther back. I guess she thought that laying down was much more comfy.
Then on Monday we were at Rick's parents house and she found their rocking horse. She is already a pro at riding the rocking horse at my mom's house so she got right on and started rocking. So much fun. (By the way, Keira doesn't have just one outfit. Those are her pj's which she just happen to be wearing two different days we took these pictures. :)
Just an update on my GD. I got set up yesterday to start taking my blood sugar and got my diet. So far it has been well within limits so I have high hopes that it will be easily controlled like it was with Keira. They told me at the diabetes center yesterday that my test results had come back just 2 points too high of the limit, but it is either pass or fail. UGH! Oh well, thank heavens for Splenda.

When Will it End?

I got a call from the doctors office a while ago with the news that I have GD again. Apparently my babies really do not like me. So I get to set up an appointment to get back on the glucose monitoring and a fun diet. At least I am not sort of panicked and having no idea what to do. Just really annoyed. So the count down begins. 70 days until this baby is born. Rick will be waiting with the chocolate again as soon as she is born. I am already going through withdrawals.

Spring is Here!

Well we have a much happier and cuter girl today so I decided to take some pictures. As you can tell she is in a GREAT mood. She was yelling "hi!" at the camera so most of the pictures I got were of her with her mouth open. As I am typing this out, she is at the piano playing and singing. What a talented girl. When Keira is in this type of mood, Jada sits quietly on the couch and hopes that her joy will not be turned on her. Keira just loves to chase Jada around the room and pat her and "love" her to death. I think that Jada understands that Keira is trying to be nice because she is soooo patient with her but that doesn't mean that Jada likes it!

Why do my babies hate me?

Ok, I know they don't really hate me and can't help what happens while I am pregnant but sometimes it sure feels like they do. I have to go in AGAIN for a 3 hour glucose test. I am not optimistic. Plus I am dreading getting my blood drawn for what seems like the 100th time for this pregnancy. I know that you are all wanting pictures of my cute girl, but I haven't taken any lately and she is being a crank today! So maybe this weekend.

Hermana Inman

Yesterday Andrea was set apart as a full time missionary for the church. We had a small testimony meeting before she was set apart and the spirit was so strong. I think the strongest I have ever felt it in my parent's house. I didn't bare mine because I am not very good at expressing my feelings but most people who were there did. I think the one that meant the most to me was Rick's because he is such a recent convert compared to everyone else and his testimony of missionary work is so strong. We will miss Andrea while she is gone. She left Washington today and will report to the MTC tomorrow at noon. I know that she is doing what she needs to and that she will be so blessed. The people of Buenos Aires will be lucky to have her.

Keira and Her Dog

Keira and Jada are still continuing to become best friends. Keira provides the food (whether it is from her high chair or stealing dog food from the bag) and Jada provides Keira's entertainment. Keira will yell "JADA!" from anywhere in the apartment and continue to yell it until Jada finds her and then still will continue to yell it just because she is having too much fun saying it. Please note that she rarely calls me by my name but she has Jada and Dad down. So rude. Anyway, yesterday we were getting ready to go to my parent's house and I put Jada's collar on her because Jada always comes with us. She is just a part of the family. Jada always gets all hyped up when we do this because she knows she gets to do something so she was running around like a dog on speed. She started panting really hard and Keira noticed and started imitating her. I told Keira that Jada was hot. Keira looked at me and said "Jada hot?" I said yes, so she walked over and blew on her like she does with her hot food. It was soooo cute. Jada is so lucky that she is so taken care of.

Play-Doh Fun

Today Keira was wanting to get into things that she wasn't suppose to and was throwing lots of little tantrums so I decided to break out a new toy. Her Grandma Marcia gave her a bunch of art supplies for Christmas and part of that was Play-Doh so I got it out with her never opened smock (I think the smock was for the finger paints that I have yet to get out but it worked for this too) and sat her down at the table. I tried to explain to her that it wasn't to eat but of course the first thing she did was take a little chunk off of it and put it in her mouth. After a second she made a face and spit it out and was quite convinced that it wasn't food. After that she played and mashed and broke it up into little pieces. She had lots of fun. She even learned how to say "pink."
So cute.
