The latest news...

It's been a while since I posted because, after a huge storm and power outage, my internet service refused to work. The internet people kept saying it was the computer, but the computer worked fine for everything else. Finally Bob gave up trying to fix it and off we went to Best Buy to get a new one. After waiting around for about 15 minutes for someone to help us we decided that the one they had in our price range was not as good as the one at Circuit City. Down the road we went, and we were in Circuit City for just a few minutes when a guy asked if we needed help. We pointed and he rang it up. So here we are with a new computer that, technically, we needed anyway. When Bob hooked it up the next day the internet STILL didn't work! He called Road Runner back and they were still insisting that it was a hardware issue. So Bob called the help desk for the computer. They insisted that it was an issue with Road Runner. After being on the phone for about an hour and a half, he called Chris (hooray for Chris!!) who told him that we probably needed a new modem. Bob went down to Time Warner and got the new modem. So now we have a new computer, and internet that works...no thanks to Time Warner.
On June 26th I had my glucose screen, and it was normal...as was my iron. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be, and we were on our way pretty quick. Well, if you consider an hour and a half quick. We had a regular appointment too, but they didn't give me my measurements. I'm only a pound away from my start weight though, and all my usual "tests" were normal. The raisin's heartbeat was strong and normal. My blood pressure was normal. I have 1 more 4 week appt, then they go to 2 weeks.
I am hoping at some point before vacation to take pictures of the stuff we've gotten for the raisin, and pictures of me in my preggy clothes. The end of this week we will be heading to the beach...I can hardly wait!!
