Year in Pictures...

Soooo.... My super awesome camera phone takes to high quality pictures to upload straight to blogger.  As such that plan has been temporarily suspended until I can figure out the bounce back problem.

PS Google, if you are reading this...please have your bloggy world catch up with your phone world.

Matthew just felt Corah kick for the first time!

I passed my Glucose test!

A year in pictures.

I have decided that I am going to try and take a picture every day. I am sure the pictures will be a million times more interesting when Corah gets here. In any case it will be a fun way to document the everyday events of a seemingly normal life.  I think most of my 356 photos will probably be from my phone and less than spectacular quality so you'll have to bear with me. I have already posted my photo of the day...(See glucose drink previous post.)

Catch Up!

I know I have been missing for a while.  My MacBook was out of commission because my Lhasa Apso, Theodore, decided to chew through my power cord.  Because a new power cord costs a minimum of $80.00 we decided Darwin would need to wait until after the holidays for power.  Thankfully, the hubs got tired of me pouting decided that we could afford a new one this week and we are back to the bloggy world.  
Today I had my glucose test...

I opted for the Orange flavored drink.  It does not taste like the Orange Slice Soda it looks like.  More like flat Slice with a cup of sugar added.  After one sip I opted for the 'chug' method.  

The problem with this test is that it was at 1pm.  I wasn't allowed to eat or drink anything before the test and I couldn't pee after I drank the solution for an hour.  While in the waiting room an 8-year-old girl dumped melted ice cream on my foot.  I was annoyed by this incident on its own.  THEN when I heard the mom ask if she spilled any the girl said no.  As I am sitting there trying to control the urge to cry I said "She spilled it all over my foot!" The girl looked at me and told me to "Shut-up" and the mom responded that she was just a little 8-year-old she didn't know any better. It was all I could do to not fly off the handle.  I went to the ladies room to try and clean the chocolate out of my nice white TOMS.  Thankfully by the time I returned to the waiting room the family was gone.  

Now,  I know that I can't say that "My child wont ever do that."  But! I can say that if that were my child I would be apologizing profusely AND try to make the situation better like offering to get a napkin or something.  I would also expect more from a freaking 8-year-old.  Grrrr!

I am also reasonably certain that I failed my Glucose test.  I'm not sure why I feel this way, I just do.  We will see and I will keep y'all posted.
