Baby Update

In all of our traveling over the last couple of weeks, I had 2 Dr.'s appointments. I took my 1 hour glucose test June 15 and failed, miserably, which was expected. The Dr. put me on my diet for gestational diabetes about 3 months ago. Because I failed the 1 hour test I had to take the 3 hour test on June 22. Surprisingly, I passed. The Dr. and I couldn't believe it. I couldn't be happier! However, I still have to stick to my diet somewhat well to help maintain my weight, but I won't have to test my blood sugar. The Dr. will reevaluate at my next appointment.

Where Have We Been?

We have been everywhere in the last 2 weeks, everywhere except home that is. D had some training in Louisville, KY, I had Dr.'s appointments, and B & I went to see both grandparents. Then we headed up to Wtown because our house there sold, so we packed everything up (or the movers did), and now we are finally home again. We actually have furniture in our house now. It is still disorganized, but we will have things put together soon then I will post some pictures.

AT D's PARENTS

B loves her Grandpas and has to copy everything they do. Visiting with grandpa out on the deck.

Grandpa and Daddy were out chipping a few golf balls around. B loves golf, so she was very interested in what they were doing.

Grandma had some new kittens that B got to hold. This white one was the nicest so she held it several times.

We also visited Great-grandma.

AT J's PARENTS

We were at my parents' during VBS, so B went to help grandma with the snacks. She also got to sit in on some of the lessons as either Aunt D or Uncle N and Grandpa were teaching.

It was also very hot while we were at both Grandparents. At J's parents, they pulled out the pool. B, of course, wanted everyone to get in with her. Obviously no one else would fit, but Uncle N had to stand in the water.

Lots of time was spent on the swing.

Sometimes she got a ride.

There were a lot more activities, but I've already lost track of the details and not all the pictures would fit.

Good Friends

Yesterday some good friends of ours from RC stopped by on their way through. It was nice to visit with them in person, and catch up. The kids enjoyed each others' company as well. We only get to see them about once a year, and it is so much fun to see how the kids have grown.

B with her friend A. We actually had some warmer weather yesterday afternoon so we could be outside for a little while.

Playing puzzles together. B had to get a puzzle for each person. The sharing is still difficult sometimes, but B will have to learn how.

We miss all the friends we have made through the years living in different cities. Being able to get together when we can is wonderful, except that we miss everyone even more.

Warm, Warm, Warm

On Sunday, J's parents came up to visit. It was a really warm day. We tried to spend some time outside playing ladder golf, but it was hard to find much for shade to stay cool enough.

One side was in the shade of the tree from the clinic next door.

The other side was in the shade of the actual clinic.
We don't have any shade trees of our own or any grass in our backyard, except along the property line.

B likes the ladder golf put always ends up hitting herself with the golf balls. She definitely enjoys it when people come to see her and want to play games with her.
