We had a great Easter weekend this year and this update is long overdue.
We dyed eggs the Friday before
On Saturday we had a
get together with friends and family again (like we did last year). We ate yummy food and let the kids play while the adults chat. It
rained all weekend, and I was worried we wouldn't
be able to hunt for eggs outside...but the rain did stop and the grass was
mostly dry by the time we were ready to hunt! It was chilly, but the kids didn't seem to care.
Let the hunt begin!
They found the eggs in no time (these kids are quick!), and they played on the swing set. It was a fun day :)
Alright onto pregnancy pictures.
This is me at 21 weeks... and 25.5 weeks.
Although I am not all that big yet, I am
totally uncomfortable. I know you are all rolling your eyes! Seriously
though, my body hates being pregnant, it protests the whole process. For the past two months I have had leg/pelvis pain that is getting worse
by the day, it hurts to just walk. Every time I lift my right leg I get
this intense sting/burning/pain sensation. I asked my Dr. last week
what she thought and she said it is tendonitis. Awesome... There is nothing I can do about it and it will probably continue to get worse until I have this baby... again, awesome.
Plus I'm carrying pretty low so there is lots of pressure that isn't
helping the leg situation. The only exercise I have been able to do is walking with friends. Now it hurts the entire time and even worse the next day. So I have to really limit the walking...frustrating. Totally looking forward to these last three
months ;) Ridiculous right?
I also failed my 1 hr glucose test last week (it came back high), so I had to do a 3 hr one yesterday. I was totally
dreading it because I eat often! I figured there was no way I could
fast a total of 15 hours and have my blood drawn four times with out
barfing or passing out. However, it wasn't that bad. The first hour I
had bad heartburn from the drink and felt a little sick to my stomach
off and on, but after that I felt totally fine. Then the second I got
in my hot car to leave I was suddenly on the verge of death and needed
food pronto. I didn't get a call back today and I guess no news is good
news! I better have passed...sugar and I have a close relationship that
isn't ready to end! I really don't eat that much sugar (at least I think so), but to have to seriously limit it...not ok :)
