Did You Count That!

It has been just over a week since I have been checking my blood 4 times a day. I did not know that your fingers could handle being poked that much. Thank God that my counts have been REALLY good. It is just hard making sure that you do not go over your carb. count for each meal. I did not know that carbs. could add up so fast.

I did go to the doctor on Tuesday. As I stepped on the dreaded scale I noticed that the weight went down 3 pounds from 2 weeks earlier. Mark it down, this is probably the first and last time that I will have actually lost weight while being pregnant!!!! The doctor was not concerned and said that this usually happened when pregnant mothers go on the gestational diabetes diet. He also said that he will probably induce Hayden at 39 weeks. Oh my goodness, this is only 7 weeks away!!

The recital count down is at 2 weeks(one more practice)! The new tap shoes we ordered four weeks ago finally came in this week. This was a glorious thing for a little girl who has been squeezing her foot into shoes that were too small. Maddie is so excited about the recital, let's just hope that the excitement does not fade as the stage comes into sight.

I suppose that I should wrap this up for now. There are flowers to plant and dishes to do.

Still praying that Maddie gets up on that stage and dances her heart out. ;)

We're excited for you.
