Long time no blog!

Well, I've been procrastinating on updating my blog and don't ask why, I just don't know.

First off, Emma. Emma is the complete and total joy in my life right now. She is absolutely wonderful. She is so smart and so sweet and then on the turn of a dime BAM the attitude comes out. For whatever reason she will argue with me and as soon as Matt says something she is like, "okay". It never fails, she can get me to that point where I just want to pull my hair out and then she turns around and says "I love you Mommy" and my heart melts all over again. She talks like such a big girl, full sentences and she understands what she is saying. My mom says it is like talking to an adult. She remembers everything and mocks everything we do. I want to make it to the zoo before I have Chase, I know she will love it!! The girl doesn't eat much at all, Matt asks her if she is watching her weight and she nods her head yes, it's too funny. But since she doesn't eat much of anything except fruit, I buy that pediasure stuff so she is getting the vitamins and nutrients she needs. It is expensive, but she needs that stuff. As far as potty training, she wants absolutely nothing to do with it! I don't want to force her, b/c then she is just gonna not want to even more. I don't want to make it something tramatic for her, I want her to want to and to somewhat enjoy it. The doc doesn't seemed worried about it at all and agrees with doing on her own time. Right now her favorite thing to do is go down the slide and she loves going down the slide on her tummy head first. She just thinks it's the best thing ever. She loves going to the playground, which is what she calls the park. The girl would stay outside 24/7 if I let her, she is a total outdoors girls. She has so many of her daddy's qualities and that seems to just make her even more perfect.

Speaking of the man, he has been remodeling our house getting it ready for Chase's arrival. We have our room done and he is in the middle of doing our bathroom. The poor guy is worn out and there isn't much I can do to help. I try to help out as much as I can, but I don't think I'm that much help at all. Between being pregnant and just not knowing what I am doing, I think I'm just in the way. But he does a fabulous job! Our bedroom looks awesome!!! Everyone that sees it is just amazed and tells him that they will call him if they need any remodeling done. Matt is just like "no thanks". I'm sure he will be more than happy when it is all over. After the bathroom he has the 2 kid's rooms, which shouldn't be too bad. I think the bathroom is gonna be the worst, b/c of all the water lines he had to move.

Onto the little man and I guess me since he's still inside baking. I am currently 28 weeks 2 days. I had an ultrasound at 27 weeks and the doc said that he is a little over 2 1/2 lbs, which puts him in the 65th percentile. He said it's a little bigger than average, but not enough to be concerned about, but everything was absolutely perfect and he is def a boy!!! I had asked if he would have to put in a perdiction right now on his birth weight what he thought it would be and he said as long as I keep my sugar under control like I have been that he wouldn't see why he wouldn't be between 8-8 1/2 lbs. Holy cow!! I can totally do that!! I was expecting a bigger number, but as long as everything stays going good, then no c-section for this girl!! I have to go to the doc every 3 weeks for an ultrasound, my next one is at 30 weeks. He also told me at my last appt that around 31 weeks will start my nonstress tests. I'm not sure how frequently I'll have to have those, but between the ultrasounds and nonstress tests I miswell just take a pillow and blanket and live there. lol Oh yeah, then I also have diabetic appointments on top of those appointments. Which my diabetic appointments don't last long, b/c everything there is great. I'm doing the shots and everything going great. I'm just at the stage where I am feeling huge and my energy hasn't been all that great. I'm not sure if it is being pregnant or just this gloomy rainy weather. I don't seem to sleep well at night, b/c I am tired. Then if I try to take a nap during the day I just lay there and think of everything I could and need to be doing instead of sleeping. Anyways, I better get going and get some breakfast, the little guy and I are hungry!!
