The weather here sucks! It’s been below 0 all week and looks to stay that way for a while. I won’t let the kids out to play because its too cold for them. When it’s like this, I really start to miss Florida…

If you ever get pregnant – don’t register at Burlington! They suck! We ordered a beautiful 4 in 1 crib (turned into a toddler then full sized bed) from them and they don’t even have the thing in stock – we just learned this after putting $70 down on it a month ago! The Bassinet we ordered came in two weeks ago and they didn’t call us. So they sold it! And some of the stuff on our registry online has disappeared! I would have registered elsewhere, but Burlington had the biggest variety of baby stuff all in one place.

We ended up buying a cheap white crib at Walmart. It turns into a toddler bed, but that’s it. Definitely not what I had in mind, or wanted at all, but it will do for now. We also re-ordered the Bassinet. Hopefully they keep it for us and don’t sell it again. By March 5th we should know.

I took my glucose test yesterday and had blood drawn. It wasn’t that bad to drink, but man I felt horrible afterward. We had to go grocery shopping and I was jittery and had a headache the entire time. When we came home about lunch time, I crashed. Luckily we had bought some food from the deli and that helped. I went to bed after that. I won’t know the results of the test for at least a week I think. I hope I pass! I hear the 3-hour glucose test is worse.

My stomach pain came back last night. I wonder if it had anything to do with all the sugar I consumed. It was pretty bad, but I managed to lay down and watch a couple movies with Matt. I tossed and turned in bed all night and got up a billion times to pee, so I didn’t get much sleep. This morning the pain isn’t nearly as bad as it was. I just can’t figure out why its happening now and wasn’t happening last month, or the month before. I’m supposed to call the specialist I saw a couple months ago and then arrange an appointment. But by the time I do all this, the pain will be gone and there will be no point. She only wants to see me when I’m actually having the symptoms. I wish she made house calls.
