25 Weeks and Counting

Last Friday marked 25 weeks of pregnancy. It has been long and feels never ending, but the end is near, there is finally a light at the end of the tunnel! I have approximately 14 weeks until we become a family of 4. Dr. Gowen said that we would schedule my c-section sometime between 1-2 weeks out, so I figure the latest will be May 31.
I had another doctors appointment last Thursday. I had to do my 1 hour glucose to test for gestational diabetes and, unfortunately, I was a few points to high, meaning I will have to go back for a 3 hours screening to really test for diabetes. Thankfully Dr. Gowen thinks that I have a very low chance of actually having diabetes, so I have to go in tomorrow to do the 1 hour test. I mentioned that I may have been sugared out since we had both Adelyn's and Paul's birthdays plus Valentine's day and a housewarming party all within the last month. Hopefully all will turn out well tomorrow!
In the meantime, I have gained 7lbs total (6 in 1 month) thus far. And I finally look pregnant (although I still just feel fat), though my friends dont believe I am 6months along.

Last week our not-so-baby baby girl turned 3!! It is hard to imagine that three short years ago we were bringing Adelyn home from the hospital, completely unaware of what was to come. She has turned into a bright, mostly outgoing, sweet, beautiful little princess who knows EXACTLY what she wants. She turns more and more into a little girl every day. She says and does things daily that make me laugh out loud.
We had a wonderful birthday party last weekend and a fun birth-week celebration! Needless to say we are looking forward to the next year-- she is going to be such an amazing big sister!
