Week 24 - 2nd Hurdle Accomplished!

As I said about a month ago, I am now focused on 4 week intervals for my pregnancy. And we've just made it to the 2nd one. First was 20 weeks and now we have hit 24! So exciting! I am still feeling so good minus the 2 complaints that you will hear over and over again: ribs and lack of sleep. But who's complaining right? :)

I'm still working the same hours but a little less since I'm no longer taking new patients. And I'm doing mostly the same things. I don't vacuum or sweep since my doctors and mostly Spencer won't let me. Cute husband! He's more worried than I am I think about how I am doing during the day.

This week was great! Much less busy until the weekend. I had a doctor appnt on Friday with my OB Dr. F and things went great again. He said now that I am 6 months, I do need to take it a little easier and rest as much as possible. He measured my belly and I was 35 cm (is that right? cm?) Anyway, that is the same as someone with one baby at 35 weeks. I gained 9lbs this last month as evidence on my belly and face :( All for the best cause however so I'm not freaking out. That means they are growing so I'm happy with that. He checked their hearts and things looked good. Sweet little girl just so still all the time. Can't wait to meet them in a few more months and see their "real" personalities come out. My blood pressure was great 116/68 and I also took the glucose test but haven't heard yet on the results. I'm hoping I don't have GD. I don't know what people complain about with that drink - it's yummy. A nice orange flavored sugar drink - that's not yucky! I think maybe only my friend Emily and I liked it though I guess. I'll let you know if I hear anything negative about the results on that test.

Knock on wood but I'm doing great still. They're still moving around a bunch, especially baby B (our "bigger" boy). He moves a lot and is starting to roll more too so the movements are much more "rolly" than "jabby" feeling.

Friday night was the Alta game - so awesome. Once again, region champs! Yeah for them! Now it is time for the play-offs to begin. Saturday we set up for the Live Nativity in December. Our stake does a "live nativity" that is so awesome every few years. It is so incredible with real people and animals too. So sweet and so special - I really do love it but it is a huge task!!! I wasn't involved as much this year as I have been in the past but it is coming right along. Hopefully I will be able to go this year but I may have to butt in line :) That afternoon, my cute nephews had another football game and they won too! Zak even scored a touchdown, threw for one and got a fumble recovery! And my Gabe got to play nose guard - so amazing! They are so fun to watch. I can't believe how much they are growing up! Saturday night we went to the REAL Salt Lake soccer game with Jon and Erin. SO FUN! If you haven't been before, you've got to go. They are way fun, close to home and parking isn't a zoo. They won so they will be in the play-offs too. Sunday was just as crazy with church things and other stuff too. Maybe one day, Spence and I will be able to sit and talk about baby names..... I wonder when that will be. I love you sweetie!

Thanks again for all the support! Things are great!

WEEK 24: looking more watermelonish shape don't you think?
