28 Week Update

Good news!! I'm not diabetic. That being said, they still find it necessary to do another 3 hr blood test next month. I do not find that necessary and the 4 holes in my left arm agree with me. Yes, that's right, they have to stick you 4 different times for this thing, while making you sit in the waiting room of the dr's office for 3 hours - while you are starving because you haven't had anything to eat since the night before. Hence, why I don't find it necessary.

Well, I've about decided that whatever poundage these things say Kaylynn should be about now are off for us. There is no way she's big enough to weight 2.25 lbs right now, I'm not big enough for that - which is good news for me! This is what babycenter.com has to say about her this week:


By this week, By this week, your baby weighs two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of her head to her heels. She can open and close her eyes, which now sport lashes. This movement is more of a reflexive blink than a deliberate opening and closing, but it won't be long before she's batting those beauties at you.

Some venting - Brian spoke with the insurance adjuster earlier this week and he said he'd be by on Friday and would give us a call for a more definite time. So I went over to the house today to wait on him and a couple of roofing guys to give quotes. 5:00 hits and we haven't heard anything, so Brian gives him a call. Do you know what that man told us?! To make an appointment. HELLO, was saying you'd come by on Friday afternoon NOT an appointment!! Now he tells us the earliest he can come to us is NEXT Friday. All the while, my garage continues to mold and mildew...

And with that, I'll leave you with some sad photos of Ike's wrath on Longstone Road. I meant to bring my camera with me to the house today to take pictures of Kuykendahl Road, it's awful looking.
