There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.

Hi All!
I’m a little late on the giddy up this morning, but I am here!! I’m kind of proud of myself for making it. I overdid it a little yesterday.

Comments
First thing I wanted to address is yesterday I got a mean comment in the comments section about my work ethic these past couple months for my employer. I didn’t publish it just because it was Anonymous and rude. If the person who sent it actually had the balls to put their name I might have published it and responded to it, but since it was obvious they were just trying to be a jerk, I didn’t. But to that person, know this; I used to work, for my employer, a 60 hour week for years. This pregnancy has taken a LOT out of me for good reason. I prayed for this pregnancy, I begged for this pregnancy, and I’m not going to do anything to risk it, even if that means I don’t work a full week or die in a snowstorm trying to get to work. So FYI, if your comment is anonymous and mean, you can just keep it to yourself.

I got the sugar! *wails*
So of course right after I posted the blog and got working I got a call from the doctor’s office. Basically my diabetes is so severe that I have to see a specialist. In fact the doctor couldn’t believe I wasn’t in a sugar coma it was that bad.
I kind of knew it was coming. I mean, I felt pretty freaking terrible during that test so it was obvious something wasn’t going to be right. So I kind of just accepted it and am ready to start making changes for these last couple months. I just hope it doesn’t continue for the rest of my life, but I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.
We don’t really think it can be controlled with diet and exercise since my diet is pretty good already and I exercise at least 3 days a week. Hopefully I can just take the pills and not the shots.
Like I said before, I’m not upset about it, I’m more upset that this is one more hurdle I have to jump in this pregnancy.

Evelynn’s blog
So she is just an active little thing lately. Yesterday when I was doing my pregnancy Pilates DVD (Denise Austin-crazy lady, but she makes it fun) she was kicking and madder than heck. I started calling her “Eveloon” (Ev-a-loon) because she was just going bananas. Some of her kicking and stretching is starting to hurt though and my stomach gets hard where she pushes up, like I can find her easy now in my belly and give her a poke if she is hurting me. And last night I could feel the shape of her body so I made Seth feel her too. I am so excited for her to get here.
We have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, hopefully, if the storm doesn’t cancel it like it did last time.

Storm of the YEAR?!?!
So I’ve been keeping my eye on the winter storm that is supposed to ruin the holidays. I really don’t think we in Omaha will get it that bad. Seth seems to be resigned to the fact that if the ice does start to hit tonite, we won’t be going to Columbus for Christmas. We will have to go next weekend when Seth’s parent’s are off work. So that kind of sucks. I’m worried we will get stuck in Columbus and miss Christmas at my family’s.

Pictures for you
Because I don’t have a lot to blog about, since I’m trying to catch up on work, I am rewarding you with random pictures from last week.


Here is Willow sleeping with Seth


I got a new haircut!


This is right after in the salon and you can see my belly a little



This is how Seth and Willow sleep since Willow abandoned me when my belly squished her one night.
Ah Bengals. They love to cuddle.
This is how Baggy sleeps now, alone and cuddled up to Evie.

See you tomorrow!!
Hopefully! If it doesn’t ice and isn’t dangerous to drive. Otherwise I will try to remember to blog from home!

Love (nice blog comments),
Carrie
