Last weekend, my parents hauled all the loot from our baby shower down from Missouri to Texas. While they were here, we drove down to San Antonio and wandered around the Spanish Missions for a while. The day was beautiful and the pace was leisurely. Since it was so close to Halloween and Dia de los Muertos, I couldn’t resist wearing my skeleton shirt. I love it, but I often can’t find a good occasion to wear it.

An update on “the diabetus” … my blood sugar so far has been pretty easy to control. I have only had to make dietary changes and monitor my blood sugar. In fact, since my glucose levels have been solid, I don’t even have to monitor quite as tightly as I had initially (meaning I prick my finger twice a day instead of five times a day). We’ve been repeatedly assured that this is still considered a low risk pregnancy and that if things stay the way they are, our treatment during pregnancy, labor, and delivery will remain unchanged.
