This little one is making me exhausted and I will blame him/her for the lack of posts lately! Every time I sit down to post, my brain turns to mush and I can’t think straight. I figured I should give an update in the baby department since it’s been awhile and some of you might have been wondering.

We had an appointment with our doctor today and everything is going well. We had an ultrasound and are scheduled to have one every week from here on out due to the fact that I have gestational diabetes. I don’t think I mentioned that before. So far it’s been fine and manageable. I have to test my blood and eat less desserts and carbs than I normally would but overall it’s not a problem. The one hitch though is that it could make for a big baby and so the ultrasounds keep track to make sure our cute little baby doesn’t turn into monstrously huge baby.

As of this coming Friday we will have 4 weeks left (unless I go early or late). But the big question is: a boy or a girl? Will it look like me or like Andrew? The ultrasound technician said baby already has lots of hair!

(Those are baby pictures of me and Andrew up there, and yes, I look like a boy.)
