Well, little B. Mac is still cooking away. Jeff has had the opportunity of visually seeing the little critter move as my stomach is doing acrobatic moves these days. It's so cool!! Weird, but cool!
Went back to the Dr. today and my blood sugar is still not under control to where he would like it. While it's easy to control with exercise, the diabetic diet is still proving to be a bit of a challenge for me. And I did splurge over the weekend, but hey, what can you say. I've had to give up so much already, and then to tell me that I can't enjoy desserts anymore - just wrong! Ohhhh, it's not that bad - I just haven't found a happy balance with the foods that are nice to me. I'm guessing by the time this kid arrives, I'll probably be close to figuring it out.
So we are hanging tight until two weeks roles around. We will have our next ultrasound to let us know "where we stand" with the weight and length. Just taking precautions due to the G. Diabetes. This will be a fun update and I am REALLY looking forward to it!
On the new job front: I will also be moving into my classroom soon! So much is going on - glad I have the time to get it done! I have orientation(s) approaching so that will be nice to meet new people and get familiar with the territory. I'm really looking forward to the next few months. So far I will be teaching Nutrition, Family Dynamics and Resource Management. Should be fun stuff!! Time to fold laundry - I'm scared of how it's going to multiply when there is three of us....
I survived my 10 year high school reunion! I must say, not too much has changed. By day three, I was done. It was great to see old friends and I hope to continue to stay in touch with them. On Friday, it was off to the Brahaus for a gathering. We had a great time, good food and many laughs were exchanged. On Saturday, there was a family picnic held (on the lake at a classmates' home - see pics). We weren't there too long as it was hot!! Yes, that is a pool that is supplied by a creek that runs through the house. Needless to say, you didn't feel like you were in Hot Springs, AR. You felt more like you were on an episode of 
"The Hills" in California. Saturday night was another gathering at the Porter House Lounge for dinner. It was obvious at how quickly the qlicks formed again. Rather entertaining I must say. Jeff was running for "Reunion King" and apparently word got out because some of the girls started coming up to him. Jeff was certainly entertainment for us all (and as usual). He was more popular than I was at my reunion!! Ha - go figure! By ten o'clock, I was exhausted, hot and ready to go to bed. I was the only one pregnant at the reunion, which is fine with me as I didn't have to explain my weight gain. I'm glad it's done and I'm glad I've moved on with my life.
Ahhh, it's been awhile since I've posted anything. So many great things have happened like life falling into place. What a relief! I truly think God was testing Jeff and I and preparing us for the "good" things to happen....To not take the good things for granted. And during my bible study, I've learned that I rarely thank God for the good things, but I am now. I'm going to enjoy this moment b/c we've made it through - with the love of family and friends, we made it through!! A baby, a new job, a new car, and most importantly a lovely lady to watch Baby Mac., it all came together!
