More Updates!

First things first, I passed my glucose test!! And yes it wouldn't be a Tiffany story if something didn't happen. After drinking it I gagged really badly and the tech jumped back like I was going to barf all over the table. Which made me laugh, which made the drink want to come back up but I kept it together.
Second, I finished my registries at Amazon.com and Babies R Us which is mayjah for me. Actually P. deserves a lot of the credit, he ran through BRU like a man on a mission!
And finally today was my official 28 week appointment with the new doctor. Without getting into the details, our last doctor was not working out but I was feeling weird about giving her the boot. I'm so glad we did because our new doctor is younger, nicer and takes the time to explain and give me an idea of what I'll be feeling and what's ahead for me in the pregnancy. He got the weight issue out of the way first but did it in a very tactful way so that I didn't feel attacked or on the defensive like the last doctor made me feel. So anyway Baby T's heartbeat is super strong and my belly is measuring a healthy 27 centimeters.
I know I haven't posted much of my purchases but I thought I'd share one of the things I've bought so far in an effort to get ready for Baby T.
Reversible Peanut Shell in Pink Mod.
April made me a believer of these things, as our cousin Julian loves to hang out in this sling. I didn't want something that would strap to my body rather something that would simply slip over my head. I'm pretty happy with this purchase so we'll see if Baby T. likes it too. If not off to ebay! (The sling, NOT the baby.)
Third trimester already here!!!

So this is supposed to be the home stretch right?
T is doing very well, and looks fantastic, even if she thinks she doesn't. I can't believe how fast this time is going by. Last week we saw the baby 'poke' through T's skin. It was kinda weird to see, looked like a wave rolling across her stomach. 12 more weeks and our little girl will be here. So far she is nameless, but we will have some choices by the time she gets here. The nursery is still partially complete, we just need to pick out a glider and the chandelier. We are still debating on whether or not to get a 3D U/S done, but if we do it will be within the next few weeks.

5. Decide two names to pick when Baby T is born

8. Stock up on wipes and baby detergent
9. Decide who will be in the delivery room
10. Work on birthing plan
11. Spring cleaning!

A peek of our crib and bedding with the Pooh P. bought me years ago in Boston.
I'm going to try to take one bump pic a week from now on.
14 weeks left...

Time just seems to be chugging along now. Just a few more things for the nursery and it should be done. Things seem to be going good, and I just can't believe that Baby T will be here in 3 months. Everyone keeps asking if we have any names picked out yet, but honestly we don't have anything yet. It may come down to seeing her to pick out her name. I'm sure we both have ideas in the back of our minds, but neither of us wants to share with anyone until she is here. Since we probably won't get anymore U/S pics from Kaiser I was thinking of doing a 3D ultrasound in a few weeks to see what she is going to look like. Anyway just wanted to give a small update since it has been a while since i contributed to the baby blog.
