getting ready to go to my 'parenting' class this morning. i love the place that i go to. its called choices for women and they do awesome work. people go to a class every week and they earn 'baby bucks' which they can then use on baby items in their baby store. its a god send for people on a budget

well, i had my doctor appointment yesterday. this one was for the gestational diabetes testing. everyone was telling me how that stuff i would have to drink would be awful but it really wasn't. was told i gained 4 pounds so Ive got to gain 5 more and then ill be back to the weight before i was pregnant. mark and i wandered around a bit and then had to get my blood drawn... and i HATE needles.. plus they had to re-stick me because the lady didn't do it right. so it finally got done. now I'm just waiting to see if they will call me and let me know or if i will find out when i go back again in 2 weeks. its all seeming more real to me now since ill be going in a lot more. 28 weeks yesterday. Robbie moves around a lot each day and sometimes more than what i think he should.. lol. i cant wait to be a mom =) blessed be

4:00 pm just got the call from the doctor. all the tests came back normal =)

well, i guess the first post should be a little about myself. I'm 23 years old and a wife and getting ready to be a mom to a little baby boy. mark and i live in Seymour and I'm starting to really like it here. at first i hated it but it has gotten a lot better. we are trying to get everything ready for the baby and it seems like i have no idea what I'm doing but with so many of my family and friends helping me i know everything will be fine. mark and i had a quick start to things. met in September... married in December.. then found out i was pregnant in February. some people said that this was too fast but i have never been happier and i know that i could not have picked a better man to share my life with. plus the family love him so Ive got the best of both worlds. i travel down to Madison every week for 'parenting classes' so i know ill be as prepared as possible for when the big day finally comes. normally my mom and i go and i know that she enjoys being a big part of this experience. well, getting ready for my doctors appointment so i better go. blessed be
