30 Week Update

I didn't do a 29 week update but not much had changed since 28 weeks. The nursery is about 2 weeks away from being completely finished. My mawma is going to sew some pillows and we are waiting on the changing table baskets to be embroidered and then we should be good to go and I will post lots of pictures then. My mom came and painted the green stripe Friday night and then D and I worked in there most of the day Saturday. The bookcase looks so good and I just love sitting in his glider looking around. Everything in his room has pretty much been designed or redesigned by me and Derek or my dad (of course). There are several things that we bought but then we repainted them or added to them so it's been a true labor of love. His bedding and curtains were custom made but we picked out the design and placement so it's truly everything we wanted in a nursery. I can't wait for you all to see it.

Yesterday morning was the first early service at church and it was simply amazing. Derek and I were so blessed to be in that service and we could feel the presence of the Lord all around us. Deacon enjoyed the music as he was quite the wiggle worm in the service. We left feeling so energized that we were on cloud 9 all day. We got a text from a church friend and she said there family had been in the best moods all day as well. We look forward to many more services just like that one.

Deacon and I go tomorrow for the Glucose Tolerance Test and we would appreciate your prayers. We will let you know the results as soon as we know. Our first prayer is that we pass the test and then in the event that we don't pass, which would mean I have gestational diabetes, we pray that we can easily manage the gestational diabetes until he comes into the world.
