27 Week Appointment

I had my 27 week appointment a bit ago (I am currently almost 29 weeks now), I just don't have a laptop anymore, so posts are far and few in between until we make the purchase (downside of not working anymore). It was the infamous "sugar tolerance test" appointment where you drink the horrific sugar juice and they prick for finger to test for gestational diabetes. Some may remember last year I flunked the test which was fabulous (cause then they get to torture you with even more nasty juices and LOTS of finger pricking)...but this year I passed with flying colors!!!!! I felt so proud. :)
We didn't have an ultrasound this appointment, but Noah had a strong heartbeat! My tummy measured a little small (measured as if I should only be 25 weeks) but they said this is no big deal since I am gaining weight. I weighed 130 lbs. which is a total of 16 pounds since the start, so all is good! We go back next Monday to see the little boy - Jason gets to come to this one since he'll be off for thanksgiving break so I'm excited!!

As for change of job news (i.e. stay-at-home mommy), I LOVE IT. It's like I don't even remember what I used to do before - such a blessing. My days now consist of playing, naps, play-dates, birthday parties, meeting new moms, Bible studies, exercising, trips to the mall and to visit daddy, and watching Tiger basketball games...loving it. And I even find myself staying up later now, too (I used to go to bed at 9:00 because work would wear me out) which is great to see Jason more.

As far as the house sale goes, I am starting to get very anxious about moving to Bentonville so we can be near Jason more - especially as the season kicks into full gear and he is having to work more and more. We had a couple come back for the second time, bringing measuring tapes and seeing how their furniture would fit in our house, and I find myself wanting to KNOW. I've had to practice restrain on my hands every day to keep from calling them and saying, "So...you buying it, or what...cause I really want to KNOW." I spent some time in the Word yesterday and in prayer (thanks to the advice of my wise father) seeking peace and patience from God in this situation and just that His will prevail for us. It's been hard to relax n this and not become too anxious, but I know and trust God's will in this...and I found comfort in that in our time yesterday.
This past weekend, the Matchell's and us spent time with one of the other assistant coaches and their family at their house for dinner and just getting to know each other better. I have been truly amazed at this new direction God has taken out family and how He has provided for us thus far. The other coaches and their wives have been such a blessing and so fun getting to know. I really am loking forward to being over there and getting to all of them on a deeper level and developing some new friendships. God is good. :)

Now the computer issue - I miss my computer!!!!! Would it be insanely stupid for an 8 month pregnant lady to camp out on black Friday to get a good deal?? Would you look at her funny and think she's crazy? I'm thinking about it...of course I would keep Lincoln at my parents house (and drag Jason with me!)...not having a computer is a mild form of torture for me. I can still do things from my phone but who wants to write a blog on their cell phone. Not me.
