Surprise Baby Shower!

I have been really lagging on the blogging front. We have been busy out on the lake on the weekends, and lounging around the house during the week.

On July 8th my Mom, and Lauren and I went down to the Bay Area to visit my Grandma and my aunt and cousins. It was a wonderful visit we got to spend time together, feel Henry kicking, listen to his heartbeat, shop, and they threw me a surprise baby shower!!!!

I was so surprised and touched by how sweet and thoughtful my Mom, Grandma and Aunt are. It was a beautiful shower full of laughter, and celebrating the arrival of our little man. He was spoiled by so many friends and family and I cannot wait to use everything with Henry :)

I Passed!

So at 27 weeks and 3 days I went tp have my 2hr glucose test, and I was expecting it to be way worse than it actually was. I had to drink the room temp, super sugary, orange drink within 5 mins. And then sat in the Sutter lab. I wasn't bad at all. Worst part was that I was fasting so I was STARVING! Guess Henry was prepping me for this test with his love for Otter Pops, and Slurpees :)

At my 28 week check up with Dr. Ho she said I passed and my levels were nice and low which is just what I wanted to hear. Now the only thing I need to worry about with my sweet tooth is gaining a ton of weight (which hasn't been an issue...yet.)
