Days and Baby Updates

I haven't had a phone since Monday or the Internet much either and I am surprised at myself with how much I feel like I need them when they aren't available to me. Tuesday was an absolutely horrible day. I don't even want to write about it because it was so sad I don't want to relive the day. Tuesdays are also Brett's longest days when he is gone from 7 to almost 8. Not being able to vent on the phone or the Internet all day to him or anyone was quite frustrating. It might have been a good thing though for others though, especially Brett. He turned out to have a really good and productive day himself. I got my new phone tonight though, but nothing to complain about to anyone on it. hahaha

Today I had my 25 wk apt. Everything looks good and healthy and I am measuring right on track. I got the yucky glucose test drink to check for gestational diabetes that I am supposed to take on Monday. Not looking forward to that. I am feeling a lot of pressure though this time around that I really don't remember feeling until a lot later when I was pregnant with Adalie. I am supposed to go back to "taking it easy" again. Whatever that means right?? haha I did get an official OK though to travel for the holidays coming up soon. We are going to Colorado for Thanksgiving and Texas for Christmas this year and I am getting so, so anxious. I just LOVE the holidays and I miss our families so much. Brett starts off the traveling this next week with his PED interview in Iowa on Monday. Wish him luck. He will be a nervous wreck for the next few weeks until we know something. Hopefully the holidays will give him an excuse not to think about it though.

I have felt heavier (or more pressure I guess) with this one as well and definitely much earlier than with Ethan! I'm glad to know that my body isn't weird :) I hope you make it through the week ok with Brett being gone and I'm so glad that you get to travel for the holidays! yay!

Glad things are looking okay! I hear that glucose test is just AWESOME. Like orange soda!
