Busy Day ...

Today I didn't go into work. I've been having these "dizzy spells" for the last week and a bit, so I decided to see if I could get into my doctor today and cancel my appointment next Thursday. I did get in and she said it could be a variety of things - gestational diabetes, low iron, a pinched nerve, a virus, or just plain old pregnancy!! I have the gestational diabetes and iron lab tests tomorrow so we'll see what those results are. Other than that, everything is great! The baby is measuring at 26 weeks (which is where it should be) and is very, very active!! I've noticed that it is getting more and more active each week! The doctor couldn't even get an accurate heart rate because it was moving around so much! I can actually see my stomach move at times! I asked the doctor about attending my prenatal aqua fit class and she said it is okay to go, just don't get too crazy in the water. Tonight's talk was by a dietitian from Sweet Momma. You have got to check this place out! The website is www.sweetmomma.ca. It is a pregnant women's heaven!! I am planning to go one of these days! So that was my day. Back to work tomorrow and then the weekend is here! Phew! On Saturday Cal and I are buying the paint for the babies room. Should be fun! Talk to you soon!

Love Tracy and Baby

26 Weeks Today!

Today I am 26 weeks along! Pretty exciting! Time is going by very quickly... It is a good thing that this weekend was quite productive as far as preparing for baby goes!! Yesterday my Mom and I did some shopping at E Children and Toys R Us and today we purchased a stroller/car seat combo and a crib!! We had to capitalize on Baby Day's!! We also have a swing and an exersaucer. We have to thank the Grandma's and Grandpa's for all their help! Next we have to paint the blue room. When we have the room all done we will post a picture! We are using the armoire from our bedroom set in the babies room and so we found a crib that is the same colour and wood grain. It is a near perfect match and beautiful!

In case you don't follow NFL football and don't know Cal that well, today was a HUGE day for us!!! The Colts beat the patriots in the AFC Championship! This is very exciting for our household! Cal is a big time Colts and Peyton Manning fan (has been for years)! Maybe we should consider Peyton as a name!!? I felt that the baby was even more active during the game, coincidence I'm sure, but Cal says it was cheering! It's awesome feeling the baby move and I am starting to notice patterns in its movement. It is much more active during the late afternoon and evening. I think it likes to stay up late and sleep in (like Mom and Dad)!! Take care and we'll talk to you soon ;-)

Love Cal, Tracy, and Baby
