28 weeks

I had a Dr. visit yesterday. Everything went well. I had my diabetes testing done. The drink is pretty gross, but I tolerated it. The worst part was being there for 2 hours....and the drawing of my blood....and the shot they had to give me. But still baby and I are healthy, so that is all I can ask for. She is very happy with my weight. I am at 115 lbs. She said I am right on the marker with my weight gain. Not too much, not too little. So that is good. I'll see if I can't get some pictures of me this weekend. I have a feeling though we are going to be pretty busy. We are watching hurricane Gustav right now. No one is sure where it is going but pretty much everyone is on alert. Including the highway department. So if Clint gets called in, we may be having to do our preparations early. I don't really think its going to come to us this time, but Clint does. Of course you just don't know until its pretty much here, where its going. Tomorrow we have to take Leaha to the vet. My baby girl has hurt herself AGAIN!! I got home yesterday and she could barley walk. This morning still the same thing. She acts almost like she has no use of her back legs. I am really worried about her and of course cried on my way to work because I felt like a horrible momma. After 10 min of just getting her to the back door, she just plopped down right at the door. As I was leaving she gave me those puppy eyes that said " Momma don't leave me, I don't feel good, I am hurting" I am gonna cry again just thinking about it. Hopefully Clint can take off early today and go home to get her inside. So tomorrow is another vet visit, and bill! Well I guess that's kinda where we are at. Baby Cody is stretching out right now, so I guess he is up and now is going to start his normal "beating on mommy" routine! But I love it! I love being able to feel him.
Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday weekend!

Babies, Babies, Babies

First off I want to start by welcoming to the world baby Jackson, and baby Bryce! My friend Vi had a her baby boy on Saturday Aug. 16. I have only seen pictures but he is so precious. It just makes me feel like my pregnancy is so much more real! It's weird I know but just seeing all the pictures of her belly and him being in there, and then all the sudden, tah-dah...Jackson is here! It's kinda sad though, because now we aren't pregnant together anymore!!! =( It's great though also, because she gave me all the details of having your first child and things to do or not do. Well as much as she could in the time Jackson allowed, before he started yelling for her! LOL
And my other friend Melissa had her baby boy Bryce on Aug 9. He is very premature, his due date wasn't until Sept 22. But as of now he is doing ok. This is her 3rd child. She is hoping maybe he can come home this weekend, so keep them in your prayers.
And of course I am still waiting on baby Micah! WHEN IS SHE GOING TO GET HERE. I bet she holds out and waits until Sept. 1. I really was thinking Christy may have her this week, but .... you never know.
So far everything is going good with me and Cody. He is just getting bigger. Right now my biggest battle is finding maternity clothes!!!! So I feel blessed, that is all I am faced with at this point. Hope these next 3 months go as easy as the last month has been.

Low Rider

Well I had my Dr. appt yesterday. Everything went well. We listen to Cody's heart beat, and it sounded good. I was telling her about my pelvic pain I was having and she said, "yeah that can happen when you are pregnant" .... Well when she went to check for him and listen to the heart beat she couldn't find him. She kept feeling and finally when she got all the way down "there" she found him. She said " Oh my, he is ALL down there honey" I said well yeah....could have told you that....just like it feels he is! She was surprised. But anyway so my little man is ridding low and mommy is sure feeling it. I am sure I look hillarious at times, because sometimes it hurts to walk and I have a waddle/bow legged thing going on! LOL But we are healthy. Blood pressure was good. Weight gain is coming along. I go in 3 weeks for my diabetes test, then it will be every two weeks after that! Crazyness.....it will be here before I know it!
Hope all is well! Much love to you all

Pictures for you


ok, so this is me this morning, Aug. 1 at 24 weeks! Wow only 10-15 more weeks to go. I can't believe it.
Little Cody is getting bigger! YEY! I weighed myself yesterday morning and am now at 110 lbs. GO ROBYN, GO ROBYN I have gained 2 lbs alone in just a week. I am very happy with my weight gain so far. As long as I can keep up the good work without having bad test results at the Dr. My next visit is on Tues. Aug. 5, so I will let ya know what happens then.
And after much deliberation I decided to go ahead and add a picture of me. My face is such a mess. I have the worst acne I have ever had. I thought I was doing a pretty good job of covering it up, but after seeing this picture I took this morning, I am thinking I am not doing such a good job. I hate it!!!! I look like I would make a perfect witch for Halloween though! Anyways, I almost didn't put this one up, but thought if I am going to share I should explain with a visual. Please pray for my acne! (And of course me, Clint, and Cody!)

Love you all and hope your days are awesome!
