32 Weeks/Halloween





This week I am now 32 weeks pregnant. I just had a midwife appointment and Ella is measuring 4 cm bigger than what she should be. I have an ultrasound scheduled for this Friday to find out what's going on in my belly, to make sure she's not growing too fast. Im not sure what it means if she is, but Im trusting God and trying not to worry about it. Good news is, I'm not gestaionally diabetic! I had 3 separate tests done, and all of them came back normal. Which is a miracle to me because diabetes runs so rapid in my family, and I did not exactly hold back on eating sweets throughout my pregnancy! Other than that, things are going well.
Jesse and I had our birthing class yesterday, which was really good. We learned a lot. I was all for no pain and getting an epidural, until I learned the risks of getting one. Jesse and I both agreed that I should try to go natural unless I absolutely have to get an epidural and then I will get one. I didn't realized they don't even give you one until you are actively in labor, which is very close the the time you need to start pushing. I guess we will see what happens!
We also had our youth group costume party last night. It was so much fun! I loved watching our youth enjoy themselves, dance, and get crazy on sugar, whilst taking pictures of the whole event. Jesse dressed up as Mario and I was a penguin. I have to say, that is my favorite party about Halloween, getting dressed up! But now October is ending and November is already here! I have about 2 weeks left of working for the Papes. I am so sad about this because I have to go through the whole process of something great ending, and another great thing beginning. I will miss not being a part of their everyday lives, but I know that they are like family and we will always be a part of each other's lives if its not every day. Charlie told me he wants his new nanny to look and talk like me. Melt my heart why don't you!
Anyways...that's all for now!!
