I know I mentioned in a previous post how crazy you have made me but I just wanted to reiterate that. Today, I went grocery shopping. I did my normal routine and walked right past the bakery. All the cakes with the buttercream icing were just whispering to me "pick me, pick me" but I went along my merry way. To say I love buttercream icing is an understatement. I look forward to every member of our families birthday and get a little perturbed when people wish to put "whipped" icing or "cream cheese" icing on their birthday cakes. I mean, I'm the one that should get to pick every time. Right? So back to grocery shopping...I went to the meat department, the produce department, and the dairy department. With each step I gained a little more confidence about being further away from those cakes with buttercream icing. Then I made it to the check out and I completed my transaction. I walked all my groceries back out to my car and it started calling me really strong saying "pick me or you will regret making your husband drive all the way BACK to the store for cake". So I did it. I did the walk of shame. I put all my groceries away and walked right back into the store, picked the best slice, and went to the same checkout person I was at just minutes before. I smiled at him sweetly and said "the baby made me do it." So sorry for blaming you Stella. I came home, poured myself a glass of milk and shared my slice of cake with your Daddy. He's a lucky man.
You are 26 and a half weeks old today and I thought your Dad was going to have a coronary when he realized how close we are to the part of the pregnancy where we bring you home. Our doctor walked into the room today with his first words being "final trimester eh?" I kid, your Dad is very excited to have you home. He spent the remainder of his day painting our last projects for your nursery and I am so anxious for it all to be done.
Today's appointment involved the nasty glucose test to make sure Mommy doesn't have gestational diabetes. If I do, no more buttercream icing. We will find out soon how the test went. Our appointments are coming so quickly now and 3 weeks from today we will know how we will be delivering you. I'm anxious for this part as well. I'll be praying that we will deliver you how God
would like us to.
26 Week Baby Bump
Love always,
Momma
