25 Weeks, good check-up today!

I had my 25 week check up this morning with Dr. Abbott. She said, "baby is happy, so I am happy"......and that makes Mom VERY happy! This was by far my fastest appointment yet. I was in and out in about 15 minutes, if only they were all this way. My next appointment is set for June 2nd and I will be going for my glucose screening which checks for gestational diabetes. I probably won't do the GD part until that following Saturday so I don't have to miss as much work. Luckily the lab is open on Sat's and takes appointments online - much easier! It made my heart race with excitement today when the Dr. said, "less than 15 weeks to go"....WOW! I can't believe how fast the time is going by. Which really reminds me that we need to get off dead center on Violet's room. At the rate we are going, the poor thing will be sleeping in a half-painted room, living out of boxes!! haha - Of course there is no way I am letting that happen to my little princess. I know we'll manage to get going on it soon, and I'll post some updates along the way.

Now Miss Vi is officially "off the ruler" (more than 12 inches)!!!!!......
"Head to heels, your baby now measures about 13 1/2 inches. Her weight — a pound and a half — isn't much more than an average rutabaga, but she's beginning to exchange her long, lean look for some baby fat. As she does, her wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and she'll start to look more and more like a newborn. She's also growing more hair — and if you could see it, you'd now be able to discern its color and texture. " - courtesy of babycenter.com
