5 Weeks and Counting...

As the restless night has already gotten the best of me, I've decided to blog. I not only have pregnancy (self diagnosed, mind you) induced insomnia, I have this nagging cough and slightly stuffy nose that I can't seem to kick!! So not only am I not sleeping but I'm sure I'm giving my unborn child 'shakin' baby syndrome'!!!! Seriously, I'm worried about it and a billion other things!!! Other than that....I don't really know that I have much to say, my lack of sleep and the lack of brain power pregnancy alone gives me, I'm at a loss for words. (wah, wah...poor me!!)

I could write about Drew and how stinkin' cute and fun he is...
I could write about .... that's just it....I can't think of a darn thing to write about! I know I have so much to do to be ready for this new little addition to our family and my mind seems to be racing these days with all the preparations that I still need to make. So, maybe, that's what I will write about this time. (I will write about Drew--I've got at least 3 stories to blog about but will do those later, promise! This will not be my only sleepless night, I assure you!)

So....that's it for now! Ha! Could my list be any longer?? I guess with all the time when I should be sleeping I could be checking more off my list...but I'm so tired!!!!

Oh and yes...some of you may be wondering how I could possibly only have 5 weeks left. Well, the truth is I have 8 but with being diabetic full term is 37 weeks. Which puts me at delivery around April 15th!!!! I have my OB appointment today (Friday) and will be scheduling an Amniocentesis and my c-section with hopes that I will go into labor on my own!! Found out I cannot be induced with a previous c-section due to higher chance of my previous incision rupturing! ahhhh, scary!
