Playing Catch Up!

So I haven't had a lot of time to blog. But I have some extra time so now I have to play catchup! So much has happened this last month. Cam and I are still JOBLESS! Which is a little frustrating at times but we really have been blessed with friends and family helping us. Which we are so thankful for. The good new is Cam does have an over the phone interview with Convergys! SO... CROSS YOUR FINGERS FOR US. Anyway, Cam is now coaching football at Sky View. He is coaching the Freshman offensive and deffensive line. He loves it! He is so good with the kids and they just love him.

 As for me I've just been busy making things for Coopers nursery, and getting ready for the baby. I dont know why but for some reason lately I love love love doing crafts. I havent been all that into it before but now I love it. Must be the mom in me :) I have been making some decorations for Coopers room and some flowers! Yesterday, I had a baby shower which was so much fun! My friends Cara and Tori are both expecting as well. We were able to get a picture of our prego bellies.

We are almost done with the nursery! I cant believe that I only have 6 and a half more weeks until our son arrives. We have been so lucky to  Theres just a few more things that I would like to get forfind all the things he needs for great prices! There are just a few more things that I would like to add to it then were done! Feels like a weight off! Im the type of person who has to get everything done right now! So im pretty sure that I have been driving Cam crazy but he has been such a great sport. Speaking for sports Here are a few pictures of the fun stuff we are putting in the Nursery.

Coopers rocking chair with his Daddys sports Bear.

C for Cooper!

The sport tiles that Cam and I made today. They will be hanging on his wall. 

As for Mr. Cooper he is moving around and kicking ALOT. My sister in Law was over here and she had her hand on my belly and Cooper kicked her so hard that she was a little surprised and screamed. It made me laugh. Our little one is a mover for sure. 

Baby shower!

My moms side of the family hosted a baby shower this weekend. My cousin and I are 3 weeks apart and we thought that it would be a fun idea to have a double baby shower. She is pregnant with her 4th girl, and you all know this is my first. So it was so much fun to see all the girl and blue wrapped presents.

My cute Olivia.

                                   Anna and I. 3 weeks apart.

                                                
                             She loved the Hooter Hider I made her.

All the fun gifts.

Gestational Diabities... YUCK!

So Cam and I went to the Doc a couple of weeks ago and yes had the lovely appointment of drinking that all you pregnant women love.... the yummy sugary drink. Well guess what? I failed it! Of course knowing my luck I would fail it. So the next week they sent me down to the lab to do a four hour blood test. They told me that I couldnt eat overnight and while they did the lab tests and to make sure to bring a book. I would be there the full four hours, drawing my blood on the hour. Cam of course was great and came with me.So I went to my Doc the next day and he gave me the great announcement that I have gestational diabities. Which means that I meet with a diabetic nurse and a diabetic counselor who goes over what I can and cannot eat. We went in this last thursday (almost about a week ago) and met with the counselour. She then explained that I am only allowed four servings or carbs a meal. and to make sure to check my blood sugars first thing in the morning to make sure my sugar levels are where they need to be. Then she said that I could check them throughout the day if I wanted too. Well the next Doc's appointment my Doc told me that I needed to be checking 4 times a day 2 hours after every meal. So yes I have to prick myself four times a day. Which I thought that I was going to hate but isnt so bad.  I have been checking four times a day for the past week almost and they are still stinkin high! Im trying everything that I can not eating sweets (well... I totld myself Im allowed 1 sweet every now and then) But I havent drank any soda or juices. and they are still high! So guess what that means......INSULIN SHOTS! I see my doc this friday and he will then decide if I need to do insulin shots or not.. Which cross your fingers for me because Im sure as heck not wanting to do them.
