29 Weeks!


Look at that beauty!

29 weeks into it, and the end can't come soon enough!!  We had a check-up today with Dr. Hargrove and found out that everything with Tenny is going great!  There were a couple of downers.  The first one is that Cate is going to have to go back for a 3 hour glucose test after the initial test came back a little bit high.  The Doc thinks everything is going to be ok, but just keep Cate in mind and in your prayers.  Gestational diabetes is not fun, especially when all of your cravings revolve around fruit!  Speaking of which, watermelon.  We bought a 1/4 watermelon the other night, and before I knew it, it had disappeared.  I think I ate about 4 bites.  The second issue is that Cate has officially been diagnosed with pregnancy-related carpal tunnel.  Boo.  Sore wrists and fingers are quite likely until after Tenny gets here (so if you work with her and your reading this, please help her open some of those pesky pill packages!).  

We're busy working on the nursery and pictures should be up before too long!  Love you all and thank you so much for your support and prayers.

March Update

Although it may not seem like it at times, everything is starting to come together.  That is very good thing, considering Tennyson is due to enter this world in just 85 DAYS!  We've got a lot of the nursery together and we are beginning to collect a few of the the essentials when we see them on sale somewhere.  Here's a little preview with more to come as we get the decor on the walls.  





Cate is really starting to feel the pregnant, and her bump has officially turned her innie into an outie.  She's got a lot of aches and pains and still gets a bit sick every once in a while.  Keep her in your prayers as she toughs out these last two months.  Also, it seems the swelling that usually comes with pregnancy decided to arrive all at once.  Look at what her feet looked like today after a morning out!



Just now Tenny did a major freak out and we could actually see her wiggling around in there!  She is certainly an active little muffin.  We can't wait to meet and for all of you to meet her as well!  In the mean time, we can all enjoy a picture of our unbelievably cute fuzz kids fresh from the groomer:
