I'm still alive

It was called to my attention that people may think I have dropped off the face of the earth. Kade and I have been SO busy. We are officially homeowners now, and are still getting settled in our new house. We LOVE it. Once we got the painting done, we were feeling very good about moving. I know I keep promising pictures, and you're just gonna have to hear it again. I'll get some pictures up of my belly, the house, and Jack really soon. There's not much new on the baby front. He's incredibly active and I have decided that there is nothing cooler than feeling a baby move inside your tummy. It's amazing. Except for those few times where it makes you go "Whoa. There is a body inside me." I had a doctor appt. this week too. It went really well. Have a mentioned how much I really love my doctor?? I am seeing Dr. Kristen Craig at the Budge Clinic, and I have adored her. She got called to a delivery before my appt. but made sure she stayed long enough to see me so I wouldn't have to wait. I was so grateful. I had to take that dreadful, awful, disgusting glucose test this time. I don't think I will desire orange soda for a long, long time now. And next time I have to get a shot in my bum! WHAT!?!?!?! Who decided that butts were a good place to stick a needle anyway? I would like to meet them....and stick them in the butt. Oh well. All in the name of motherhood. I also had a very good month for weight gain....8 pounds baby. I was shocked...and a little appalled. But only until Dr. Craig told me to expect a jump in this month's and next month's weight. Doesn't make me feel all the way better about gaining that much at once, but again, I'll do it for Easton. I do believe that's it for me this week folks. I'll try to think of new, funny things to write and I WILL get some pictures up very soon. I promise.
