Glucose Test

I had to take the 3 hour glucose sugar test since I failed the first one. :( It's a routine test for pregnancy because it will detect gestational diabetes. The 1 hour test is a breeze, but the 3 hour is rough. First you must fast for 12 hours, get your blood drawn, drink a yucky, syrupy, sugary drink, and then get your blood drawn 3 more times in 3 hours(also without eating or drinking). So altogether 15 hours without food, that's a LONG time for a pregnant girl. Anyway... I PASSED!! Praise God, since many of you know to change my diet would be almost impossible. I also passed my iron test, which is a surprise to some people. I thank God for such a healthy pregnancy so far. I guess I shouldn't complain about all of my other aches and pains.

The start of a nursery

We have a crib! Thanks to Dean's mom, who sent us our crib and a bunch of other nursery stuff. We put the crib together this weekend and just love it. I will post more pictures when we have the full nursery put together. I can't wait, it makes the whole thing seem more real. She'll be here before we know it. :)

You don't see this everyday

Okay, so you've probably never seen a pregnant girl on a dirt bike before, but now you have. I promise I didn't ride it, or even start it up. Actually, I sold my bike s few days ago. It was a sad day for me, but I can't really justify keeping it right now, and haven't been riding in almost 2 years. For those of you who don't know, riding and racing dirt bikes was a very big part of my life a few years ago. I love to ride and race. I even helped start a women's class in woods racing. Hopefully I'll have a bike and be able to ride again someday.


Here are a couple of pictures of me riding back in the day.
