This weekend

Hello all!

Well last Friday we went to see the specialist, Dr. Miller, who by the way is an excellent Dr. and I would recommend him to anyone! He was very understanding of our fears and took the time to talk to us, and even put it in "normal people," terms!

The ultrasound is very cool! We even got to see some of her hair! She sure is getting big for that small space! But the good news is with gestational diabetes, babies tend to be bigger, not ours she is still a peanut, 5lbs even! This is about the 30% for this gestational age. Not too small, not too big! Also, she is in head down position, which is a good thing! I do not know if I am dialated or anything like that. The Dr. said that it really doesn't matter because if she came now it would be past the point of fear! Yeah! We made it! Once, I get over to the parent in laws I will get those pics posted.

This past weekend we took the birthing class. This class was completly Lance's idea to take, so we took it. Unfortunatly, he could not make it Friday night, so my mom went with me to that, then Sat Lance went with me! This class was beneficial, but in my opinion very hard to stay awake through. But, the good news is Lance feels more prepaired for the birth (at least one of us does :))

Then, today Lance did his first "gig," painting in a nursery for someone other than family! It was great and I am very proud of his work! I must admit I was a little bit surprised at how good he is :) I know something only a wife can say! The family that he did this for is friends/co-workers of his dad (Dale) and they are one of the most friendly families that I have meet so far in my life! I went with him to keep him company while he did the painting and ended up talking with the woman of the house almost the entire time! ( I don't think Lance minded :)) Anyway, he painted a little teddy bear on the wall with a frame around it so it looks like a hung piece of art and it really looks great! The teddy bear matches the bedding that they plan to use for their little one!

Once again, I hope all is well with everyone and we will keep you all informed! I can't wait for 5 more weeks to post pictures of our little one!
