Ready to go home!

The Nursery is ready!

Well, so far I have been able to control my blood sugar with my diet.  It has only been a week, so we will see how it goes.  So far, so good... Wish us luck!!!

April 13th appointment

We had an appointment on Friday, April 13.  I was told that I have gestational diabetes.  We have a class on Wednesday, April 18 to learn more about the condition and how to manage it.  Then we have another doctor's appointment on Friday, April 20.  I am told that this is a somewhat common condition among pregnant women and very manageable and that Ethan and I should be just fine.  If I am unable to control my blood sugar with diet, I may have to take insulin shots.  I know that everything is going to be fine and I will be vigilant in my efforts to make sure that it is.  I will update when I know more.

This is our son at 20 weeks!!!!  The doctor said he is growing at a normal rate and everything looks great!  He is a healthy baby boy!

Elective ultrasound

We are having an elective ultrasound on Tuesday, January 17 at 6:00 p.m. in Lawrenceville to find out if we are being blessed with a boy or a girl.  The facility offers live web streaming of the ultrasound for family and friends to watch from their computer.  If you did not receive an e-mail about it from sonoview live, and would like to view the ultrasound, please let Kyle or I know.  We are sooo excited!!!  Please pray that Baby Rolader cooperates.

December 28 apppointment

We had an appointment on the 28th of December.  We thought we would be getting another ultrasound, but we did not.  However, we did get to hear the heartbeat!!  The doctor said that everything looked good.  Our next appointment is on the 25th.  Wish us luck!!
