Christmas Eve

Well, at least all my shopping (except for one present which doesnt have to be done until AFTER Christmas) is done. My presents are all wrapped. We decided not to do stockings this year in effort to save some money. I have NO cooking to do, as I did all the Thanksgiving cooking, so my brother has to do Christams dinner, yay! Tonight we are to go over to my mother in law's for Christmas over there, then tomorrow we'll be with my dad and brother. I'll sure be glad when Christmas is over. I'll be even happier when it's the 26th and I have the day off for a big sigh of relief. My goal was that last year would be the last Christmas I had to spend morbidly obese, and I'm happy to say that I've met that goal, and am happily spending this Christmas as just regular old obese with a BMI of 37.7. Not too bad considering I have this whole other person inside me. Baby is wiggly and seems to be doing fine. We have another appt on Jan 5th, where ill have the fantastical gestional diabetes test. I should also then start seeing the dr every two weeks, as we are now in the third trimester! I was looking forward to march for surgery last year. I can't hardly stand the wait for March this year! Amazing how your life can change in just the course of a year.

Sounds like you're all ready for the holiday! This has been a great year for you, I know that little wonder in your tummy will bring you great joy come March (or so)! Linda Vicory
