Week 26

Yet another check up down a few more to go! 
Had my Gestational Diabetes test on Thurday and wont hear back about the results until Monday. Chances are that Im good to go. If I had to watch my diet Im not sure I'd survive without my goodies! She had to take the blood test and when she went to get another vial of blood something happened and my arm stung like crazy and for some reason my blood stopped and would not fill up the vial. OUCH!!! Yup, now there is a huge bruise on my arm because of it. She asked me if I wanted her to prick me again or just do a finger prick to test my hemoglobin. Um finger prick please!
Blood pressure is great like always but I have gained 8 lbs in 4 weeks!!! What??!!! Yes, that makes a grand total of 141 lbs so far this pregnancy.
Other than that there is nothing more to post. I should count it as a blessing but I have boring pregnancies majority rules. She said she'd strip my membranes at 38 weeks and if that doesn't work try again and be induced a week early at 39 weeks. I know the drill. Did this with Xander. Some people may object to being induced but I really do not mind or think it's doing anything against mother nature.

Picture Update

Just a few pictures to keep the blog interesting!

26 weeks pregnant! 




Kymber and her bestie outside posing...

Easter

I think I'm way due for another Albright update post! 

I finally found my camera! This is why Easter post has been neglected...until now!

Alan was soo cute when it came to Easter. He refused to let me help with Xander's basket and informed me that I had Kymber's and he would take care of bubba's. Now, some may think it's completely insane to give a 10 month old an Easter basket, but in my house we celebrate every holiday!

I was beyond excited to find out that it was my holiday with Kymber this year! Her dad had her Friday evening until Saturday evening and we got her the rest of the weekend. We didn't go completely out on Easter although we did get them plenty of candy to munch on!

Flu Bug

Tis the season for the flu and this one seems like it's spreading like the plague!!  It hit my poor Xander first and broke my heart when he'd thow up cause at 11 months old you have zero idea what's going on.Thank heavens it didnt last very long!! It was over with by the morning but I am still, after many days, am still changing bedding and nasty diapers in the mornings. Of course I was the one who tended to him and was closest to him so I caught it next. It was soo bad I was having contractions and the mid wife said it should be gone by the morning but if not to call her. Well, it wasn't. And so my lovely day began of having my mom come help watch the kids cause I could hardly move I was hurting so bad and soon as Alan got home I had to run to the hospital to have the baby monitored and get some fluids in me. A lovely 5 hours at the hospital and I was sooo ready to get out of there. Sure made a world of difference though!
Like I said, it spreads like the plague and it seems like everyone either has had it or is getting it. Alan got it , but Kymber never did. Only as cold which is leaving her voice half way gone and her up all night coughing. I end up on the couch because I can hear it and keeps me awake at night worrying about her. I'm glad its over and now we can start enjoying the sunshine that's coming our way!

23 weeks

The only reason I am posting this picture I promised an updated preggo pic and because my bestie Kristin took the time to take it for me...So here I am. 23 weeks pregnant.  Clothes barely fit and every Sunday I am defeated by my Sunday Wardrobe because I am now too big for any this else but my plain black maternity skirt and maternity dress that makes me look the size of Texas.
