Update - Baby/Insulin/Doctors

So final baby garrison got yet another ultrasound today cause he couldnt find the baby with the doppler again lol which is fine i like seeing the baby.
I hear now that I'm high risk lol I'll be seeing alot of this baby.
They increased my insulin to 25n 15r 15r 15r 20n - he thinks he is still low balling it but doesnt want me to bottom out.
Dr. Holmes has a wonderful bed side manner and seems to talk to his nurses alot cause all my conversation I had with the nurse he knew about and addressed each concern.
He tried to relieve some of my stress by giving me a different outlook then I've been taking which is very comforting he would take that extra time to make me feel better.
He spoke to me about this specialist that I will be seeing and talked to me about how we would handle the 32 weeks and beyond part which seems very intense with many visits to him. But I like that he is going to monitor everything and can take the baby if there is any cause of concern.
Ultrasound machine said i was 16 weeks 4 days which means it wont be too long and we will get the big ultrasound.
He asked me today what i thought I was having and I told him.... well, my body sure is reacting differently to this one so I was thinking girl, but everyone I know around me is having girls and I think they are using up all the girl spots LOL, so probably another boy LOL. He chuckled at me. Anyways. Here is a decent ultrasound profile shot. Baby was in deep thought and started moving around during the ultrasound. Always nice to have window into their lil world.

With that I'm gonna head out for a late lunch and a haircut.

Branson Vacation

Well I guess I'll tell this story in reverse since the darn photos went in opposite order.

So as many know I've been a gestational diabetic with all three of my pregnancy's. Braden I could control it by diet alone, Parker it was with the diabetic pill and now with final baby I've been put on insulin. I'm giving myself 5 shots a day. Plus pricking my finger all the freaking time.
Not enjoying the shots. I just might keep a count down of how many times i get to prick myself again.
We vacationed in Branson MO at the end of April.
We enjoyed the Dixie Stampeed ALOT. The boys loved the horses and the food. Braden loved the soup so much he chugged it (no silverware) and Parker just ate everything he could see and then proceeded to throw up while in the backseat.
Family photo at the Stampeed.
Boys loved the swimming pool. They were so excited. I didnt get to participate I was up in the room sick. The boys of course caught my crap a few days later and we have been miserable together.

This weekend has not been good. Been getting used to the insulin trying to eat all the time, trying to keep the boys semi entertained while they are cranky and not feeling well. Just very overwhelming. Glad the weekend is over. I have two doctors appointments this week. One with Dr. Holmes my OB, and then one with my Diabetic lady. I'm sure they will be upping my dosage of insulin cause my numbers still arent where they want them. But I've been fighting this cold and alot of stress so that isnt helping my numbers one bit.

Easter.

Easter was soooo nice!
Parker in Blue, Braden in Brown. This was about as nice as it got for both of them looking at me without some horrible cheese, funny face look.
Parker was a great egg finder.
Braden was a total spaz while trying to find eggs.

Okay I'm a horrible blogger. Horrible. SLACKER. LAZY BUM. But I think there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Tomorrow will mark the start of my 12th week of pregnancy, and I'm finally starting to feel human, still spontaneously taking naps, fall asleep after dinner, and have moody episodes of tears. My appetite is still odd. Feel hungry, eat two bites get real full and cant eat anymore.
Brants job with conoco will be moved to Bartlesville on July 15th. May 15th we can start the process of getting the house on the market and all that fun mumbo jumbo. So as you can see we have alot of changes coming our way. New town, New baby, new new new challenges. Braden will be in Pre-K this coming year. I'll be in a town other than Ponca City for the first time in 32 (almost 33) years.
We dont know if we will be in Bartlesville, myself personally would rather be in Bartlesville. Husband is wanting to live closer to Tulsa, in Collinsville or Skyatook or some town inbetween. While I think it wouldnt be that bad, I still really like the idea of the boys getting to be in a large ward family like they have in Bartlesville. So I'm hoping we find a property that we all love and is affordable inside Bartlesville. We have our eye on a house that meets almost all of our wants. But with the price the way it is I doubt we will get the chance cause it is priced to sell.

Anyways. So, this is baby number three and final baby for Jill. Im closing the baby factory after delivery. Which is another thing. Love my new OB in Ponca, he is a DO which, for some reason I adore their bed side manner and laid back caring approach, I dont know if i wanna change, but I dont know if I wanna drive back and forth all the time for the end of my pregnancy which will be full of stress tests and all that crapola. SOOOO I have some decisions to make asap.

Fall!!!!

Well it was a wonderful Indian Summer Fall day in Oklahoma. I'm not feeling too hot but thought it would be a good idea to get some Halloween/Fall photos up. So enjoy.



This was as good as it could get with these two. Its getting harder the older they get to get them both to obey.
These photos were taken a few weeks ago. Beginning of October. We are out at the Duck Ponds near Lake Ponca. Beautiful weather and beautiful surroundings. And crawling with caterpillars.
