The Countdown is On: 99 days to go!

I had my 26 week OB appointment and glucose test this morning (1 day shy of 26 weeks). Emily's heart rate was a strong 147 bpm and I am measuring 26cm...perfect for 26 weeks. So far, I have gained a total of 14 pounds. I am really trying to keep it under 30 this time (down from 37 with Kason) and have been eating much better the past few weeks. Somehow, though, I still managed to gain 6lb from my last appointment exactly 4 weeks ago. Hopefully, I can slow down to no more than a pound a week. We also found out today that I will get a 3D ultrasound at 32 weeks and get to bring home lots of pics and another DVD. Yay! As we get nearer to the end of the pregnancy (36 weeks), I will begin having weekly or biweekly checks of my fluid since that is what caused me to be induced with Kason.

The big news from today's appointment is that, as of today, we have 99 days before our due date. We all know babies come when they are ready and that nothing is set in stone, but we are excited to be near the 100 day mark.

We close on our house 1 week from today, the first day of my 3rd trimester. Yippee to both! Our official move will be next weekend and I can't wait to stock up on new toys for Kason to play with outside and get the nursery ready (if only we could decide on bedding)! We are also very excited to get our dogs back - thank you MawMaw and Grandma O.

Stay tuned for a huge picture post when we get moved in and find our camera cord. I was looking through our camera and camcorder the other day and we have SOOO many cute pics and videos we haven't be able to upload from the last 3 months. Hopefully, they will all be up soon!!!
