The girls and I had a very busy day today, starting with leaving our house around 9:30 to do the shopping for their Christmas Child boxes.  Pnut has been very excited about this since I told her, and she has been asking every day if we could go.  We finally had the car and the time so we did today.  It was a lot of fun, and they really enjoyed picking things out.  However, I'm not sure how well Pilly realized that the things were not for her.  She almost cried when I made her put the puppy stickers in the box.  But overall it went really well.  The even wrapped their boxes tonight.  All we have left is for them to write notes for inside and we will take them to church. 

We ate a delicious lunch that featured pumpkin as the star with our good buddies and stayed too long so that the house in shambles and we had to run right home for nap, which Pilly tried not to take but ended up asleep anyways.  Then I had my 34 week check-up this afternoon too.  Everything is going well!  The doctor actually told me that my sugars are better than hers, and she is not pregnant and does not have diabetes.  She said chances are good that I don't have it, but I still will keep checking twice a day until the end.  She also said, which was news to me, that they won't let me go past the due date since I have been diagnosed as a gestational diabetic.  Babies from mothers that have gestational diabetes tend to be big so they don't want to let them grow past the due date!  Of course, when I had it with Pnut, she was only 6 pounds.  I do, however, want to try somehow to go into labor before my due date because I don't want to be induced.  Pitocin is for the birds!  That stuff is just a pain.

Now tonight I'm trying to decide whether I want to bother working any more or do something a little more fun.  I think I know which side is going to win:)
