Almost 31 weeks!

I can't believe how fast this pregnancy has been going the last month or so. It is sure flying by. It has also been quite eventful which may be why it seems to be going so fast.
I had my follow up ultrasound on Monday to check the babies weight, fluid, and kidneys. They have been checking on the kidneys because one is really large. Well, the one is a little larger now, and now there is also fluid in the kidneys. The baby is also almost 5 lbs now. So, I have to see a specialist in Grand Rapids when we bring Will down for his next biopsy. I am trying not to worry too much, I think I am actually doing pretty good about that.
I also just found out that I probably have gestational diabetes. So much fun! (Does the sarcasm come through well on here?)
Will is doing really well with the buffalo so far. It was hard to get him to swallow any of it at first since he isn't used to textures like that. But he is getting the hang of it now. I am keeping my fingers crossed that buffalo is a keeper!
We are going to a Halloween party on Saturday. We are also going to take Will trick or treating in downtown Marquette. His costume is so cute if I do say so myself! I just have to make the suspenders and he will be the cutest Gnome ever! Matt is being Charlie Chaplin, and I am being a gumball machine!
Be on the lookout for cute Halloween costume pictures coming soon! Here is a sneak peek below...

  1. Prayers to you during your pregnancy. I had gestational diabetes with both my pregnancies.

    It is an adjustment, but I'm sure you will do fine.

  2. Thank you. It has been a rollercoaster for sure. I can't seem to get my numbers under control even with upping my insulin and staying on a strict diet. Baby is now due to arrive via c-section on 12-7. I will be 37 weeks gestation by then. Thank you for your prayers, I appreciate it so much!!!
