Way Better News

I just talked to my Doctor's office and I don't have G.D. yet. I am so excited. I still have to be retested at 28 weeks but at least I can relax a little with the diet. I had some real chocolate to celebrate and it was GREAT! :)

More Belly Bump

Here is my belly at 21 1/2 weeks. The baby has started kicking me quite strongly the past week or so. I just hope that this baby is a little more mellow then Keira was. We can all wish. I managed to survive Easter without sugar. Rick's grandma brought sugar free cream puffs and they were delicious. So I will survive I think.
Rick and I think we have agreed on a first name but we are having some pretty strong debates on a middle name. So hopefully this baby will be named before she arrives. I am pretty confident she will be but we can both be stubborn. And no, we won't be telling anyone the name until after she is born, so don't ask! ;)

Fun in a New Dress

Grandma Marcia made Keira a new summer dress and I decided to have it be her "Easter" dress this year. I got her all dressed and ready to go to church and then she ended up not going because Rick had a crisis at work and had to stay home and fix it (someone hacked their website and deleted all of the content on their server. Not a good day.) Since I had to play the piano for most of Sacrament meeting for choir I went by myself and she stayed home with Daddy and took a nap instead. So since she was already cute and Grandma Holly, Grandpa Allen and Great Grandma Mary Lou were coming over, we kept her in it. At least someone saw how cute she was yesterday.
Take notice that she is reading Curious George in the last picture. She loves Curious George. She got a Curious George stuffed animal for Christmas and it is her favorite animal. She always sleeps with him and loves to make monkey sounds. My mom just got her a bunch of George books on Friday and gave her some for home and some for at Grandma's house. Keira has been reading them constantly ever since.

Sucky News

I just got a call from my Doctor's office and I have to go get the 3 hour glucose test which is pretty much just to verify that I do have G.D. again. I am really bummed. I am going to go do it on Friday so I will probably know for sure on Monday or Tuesday, but I am just going to start pretending that I have it now. Probably best for me and the baby. So everyone wish me strength (I hate needles!) and eat your favorite treat for me.

It's a Girl!

Well the votes have been tallied and the baby decided that she is a girl. We are happy and excited mostly because we didn't care which we were having. Everything is happy and healthy with the baby so that is more good news. Now we just wait for the blood test results for me to come back. Oh goody.

Pierce Look-alike Meter

Wow no shock that Keira looks like both Rick and I. Now the debate has ended. Well probably not.

Weirdo in a Basket

Keira has been putting her laundry basket over her head and walking around the house. She bangs into everything and has a blast doing it. I have tried and tried to convince her that it isn't that fun (since she throws all of her dirty clothes on the floor to get the empty basket) but it is a battle I am losing. I guess I will just have to wait for her to get bored. Oh well. It is cute anyway.
