Another Update -- Nursery and Mama

We got the fence up in the baby's room last night. I am quite impressed in how easily and quickly it actually went up. Jarrett and I used some great teamwork and came up with a decent method and finished it in less than an hour. I also conquered my fear and used the brad nailer!
On another note, I got a call from my doctor's office and found out I failed the initial glucose screening test. This means that I have a 3 hour test ahead of me to check more closely for gestational diabetes. Hopefully I can pass this test and not have to worry about my diet. I was also told that my Iron is low which I wasn't totally surprised about. It was low while I was pregnant with Jonah and it was actually the same number this time. I can just take an Iron supplement to help with that.

26 Weeks

Things are continuing to go well with the pregnancy. I had a check-up today and everything looked good. My weight gain and measurements are right on track and my blood pressure was great. I had the glucose screening test today so hopefully that will come back negative for gestational diabetes. I go later in the month to get my Rhogram shot since I am RH negative. I start seeing the doctor every two weeks now so we're heading towards the home stretch it seems.

Glider Finishing Touches

I put some finishing touches on the glider this weekend. This was the glider from Jonah's room and the cushions were blue. I covered it in a chocolate brown and added some ribbon and flowers. I also used the wall hangings that came with the crib bedding set to make arm rests.






Children's Musuem of Indianapolis

We took Jonah to the Children's Museum of Indianapolis on Saturday and we had a great time! There were exhibits and fun things to do for all three of us.
Jonah liked the Bob the Builder Exhibit. You could play with "tools" and "drive" construction vehicles.

Jarrett and Jonah played a few games of Pac Man. We wanted to show him Mario Brothers but one family wouldn't stop playing, not that I blame them.


Jonah really enjoyed the mirror and lights exhibit. He was the center of attention and he is his biggest fan.

In the Pre-School Play Place we had a lot of fun. They had a sand table, a garden, a doll house, a water table, slides, big blocks, and all sorts of fun stuff to play with and on. We probably spent the most time in there.

It took awhile for Jonah to play in the water -- it was pretty cold.
