I am happy to report I passed my glucose tolerance test! That thing was no joke.  I didn't have a problem with the drink its self but I felt terrible after, even got sick a few times.   Ended up not going into work and Kevin worked from  home in the afternoon.  He brought me lunch and kept my company on the couch.  I'm a lucky girl! 


Here are this weeks pics!  They were taken this morning.  I am hoping the early hour and rough day yesterday are contributing the the puffy face.  Yikes!









And for fun here I am wearing the same shirt Feb 25th for my Birthday dinner.  What a difference a couple of months make!

On Saturday my friend Ellen and I got together.  She is having her 2nd child, a little boy on Friday! She has an adorable little girl already.  We decided to have girls day out with lunch, mani & pedis, followed up by some frozen yogurt.  It was a wonderful afternoon out and we had so much fun.  She and I have been friends since we were in high school.   We went to different schools but had friends in common and then we went to the same collage until Kevin and I moved to Columbus.  A few years after we moved down here she met her now husband and moved here as well.  I love having her close by, now if only we could get together more often!

Ellen and I all smiles after our relaxing day out! 

The bump in the 24th week.
