28 weeks and counting

Nine more weeks and Ryan will be full term!! When I think of 9 weeks I think about how much we still need to get done at home. Wow!! Time has gone by so fast. Just when I have things figured out with our family we are going to add a new little one to the mix. I'm already getting ready for my 3am feedings with Ryan. I wake up around 3 every night. Sometimes I'm awake for almost 2 hours. I end up watching Oprah and late night entertainment. Now I'll know what I want to watch when I'm feeding Ryan (LOL)

Ryan weighs 2 pounds 11 ounces and seems to be a week over what he should be. The ultrasound tech could even see that Ryan has lots of hair. How crazy is that! He is a big mover and I think it's because he can hear his brother's playing and talking to him. Matthew and Logan can't wait to meet baby Ryan. Both boys will kiss my belly and will talk and sing to Ryan. It's so much fun! The boys are even getting ready for the new addition by going to bed on time and sleeping in Logan's room that has twin beds. God knows what we need at the right time.

This past Tuesday I took my glucose test and my results were not good. I have to go back to the doctor tomorrow and take a 3 hour glucose test. Pray that this test comes back with good numbers and I don't have to do any special testing.

Ryan's kidneys still have fluid and we will continue to monitor him. This means more pictures in 3 more weeks. It's always fun to see him moving.

We are all staying busy around here and hope everyone is doing well.

Talk soon!
