30 Weeks Belly

It's the 10 week count down! My belly button has popped. Maddie has the hiccups ALL the time. And I had my first "when are you due" from a complete stranger on Sunday. That was exciting! I can't believe how fast it is going. After morning sickness ended it really has gone by so fast. And we still have A LOT to do. But we are slowly making it all happen.

My AWESOME in-laws spent a week with us and got sooo much done! The exercise equipment is out of the baby's room. The baby's room is painted. They installed a new microwave (that was a surprise project!). And they raked soooo many leaves (we have soooo many mature trees that this time of year is not fun for Mark)!

We are also almost done with childbirth classes so I guess this is really going to happen! I don't know if our original plan of just letting labor and birth happen on it's own is still the plan now or not. I found out a few weeks ago that I have gestational diabetes (surprise!) and am already insulin dependent so that coupled with Mark being a giant baby (11 lbs 23 in) may change our plans. But who knows! I've got a great doctor so I'm sure we will make the best decision for Maddie. So keep her in your prayers if she isn't already. We specifically are praying that she isn't affected by the sugars and doesn't get big.
