Full Speed Ahead

That's what I feel like lately....this baby train is moving FAAAST!

Had my Glucose screen today.  I won't know the results for probably a day or two.  I'm not worried.  {Wait - Maybe I should be considering all that banana cake I ate?}

My OB indicated my weight gain is still on the low side.  I think I'm at 10-11 pounds total now and almost 27 weeks along.  But my belly IS getting BIGGER!  (For the record I feel VERY VERY pregnant.  Huge.  I know I'm gonna look back on this at, like week 37, and laugh at my silliness.)  He measured it again today and said "You're right on track:  Not too big and not too small."  Music to my ears.  And we listened to the heartbeat again, always reassuring.  Although reassurance can be found usually every night between the hours of 11pm - 3am.  Non-stop reassurance ; )

I was a little suprised when he said "I'll start seeing you every 2 weeks now.  We'll have you fill out the consent forms for your C-section and we'll go ahead and get you scheduled today.  You'll be getting a call letting you know when it will be."

Just like that!  Whoa Nelly!  Already??  EEEEEEEEKKKKK!  I'm ready to have my body back and not feel like a beached whale.  I'm not ready for this baby to be here just yet though.  Still so much to do.  But every day more and more I am thinking about this sweet little baby growing inside me, wondering what he or she will look like.  Wondering who he or she will be.  I wondered the same things with Morgan.

Every night the Hubs and I have a "Naming Pow-wow".  We discuss potential names for this precious little one.  Just like with Morgan, we're not getting very far.  It's so frustrating!  We don't want something trendy -- or super unique -- or difficult.  But on the other hand, we don't want something boring and lame-o either.  Traditional, classy, strong.  Those are words I would use to describe what I'm looking for.  Pretty much every name I hear these days garners the same reaction out of me:  "Ugggh.  HATE it."

What else is going on...
I got stood up by a Tile guy.  He was supposed to come over and failed to show.

I got stood up by our builder, who is supposed to be installing new cabinets and a pantry in our laundry room.  That was supposed to happen the first week of March.  I think he's bailed on me every week since then.

Sensing a theme here?

My Dad's birthday is this coming weekend and I REALLY REALLY REALLY wish I could go home to MN to celebrate it and see my family.  I miss them all so much!
