A couple of weeks ago I got the call...I have gestational diabetes. I didn't think much of it at first. I just thought oh I will just monitor what I eat. No big deal. Umm...well this whole monitoring what you eat deal is not so easy! Especially when you are pregnant and hungry all the time! I went to the Dr today and I have done good so far. I have tried a few things and found out I can't eat them. It is sort of trial and error with some foods. Mom made some chocolate chip cookies for Mother's Day and I HAD to have one (or 2) and well, there went my number for that meal! Anyhow, all in all it is ok. 10 more weeks!! They test you after you have the baby (I think several mths later) and see if you still have diabetes, or if it went away. Let's pray it goes away, b/c I don't do so well on these diets!
Here is just a picture I took of Luke yesterday. I did something that he thought was funny and I just captured him laughing. I thought I would enjoy him still being young enough to think what I say/do is funny! The other picture is him getting ready to "cut the grass!"

That is yucky that you are having to monitor what you eat. Luke is getting so big! He looks like such a big boy. I hope that I can see you when we come to town this summer.
Julie, I hope your next 10 weeks fly by (for the diabetes). My mom is a diabetic so I know how hard it can be to watch everything you eat. It's no fun!
On the other hand, I cannot believe how big Luke is! Boy time sure does go by fast. He's such a handsome little guy too. I hope things are going well for the Youngs:)

So sorry for you. No fun. Hang in there though! Not much longer.
