25 weeks and more

Here is a pregnancy update for all you who care. I am now past 25 weeks and feeling a lot better. I was sick for about the first 20 weeks or so. I continually thought it was ending, but then would have two or three days during the week where I would be nauseous again. Ick. And I thought my pregnancy with Hallie was bad, where I was sick for about 3 weeks total! :) My biggest problem these days is intense heartburn, but hey, I will take it! On the positive side, at the last doctor's visit last week, the baby is now measuring normal size instead of large. However, the doc made sure to say, "But don't think that means you will be having a small baby! You will definitely have a big baby." How comforting, eh? I had the lovely gestational diabetes test, which I passed, luckily. They have no idea how much candy I eat. They gave me the fruit punch flavored juice which was horrid. I much prefer the orange that I had last time, thank you. Other than that, there isn't much else to report pregnancy wise. Below is a 25 week pic. I feel like I have gotten bigger faster than I did with Hallie, but its hard to say. (yes, my head is deliberately chopped off. Its not a pretty picture today.) And now, for your viewing pleasure, a video of miss Hals on the way to Idaho for Thanksgiving. Don't worry, I didn't take one picture the entire time we were there. We had a great time, but this is the only "proof" (if it even counts) that I have that we went somewhere. Hallie is funny. We were driving along when she requested a certain drink...

(Don't hate, we never actually feed our child diet coke. She must have learned those words from certain aunts, uncles, and cousins of mine who may or may not be addicts.)
