Still Waiting.............

Hi Everyone! It has been so long since we've posted an update. Everything is still going well, and we are still waiting. Tomorrow will be 5 weeks until our official due date; however, I think we are ready both physically and emotionally anytime. Baby's room is finally finished, and we need to take some pictures and post so that you all can see. Shadow is beginning to adjust to Baby's room. The first few days he wouldn't stay out of the crib and insisted that the rugs be placed upside down. He knows something is up, but we don't think he has a clue of what is coming. More updates and pictures to come - hopefully this weekend!

Another Exciting Week for the Yake's

First of all, we'd like to say Happy 2nd Birthday Madalyn! Next, Congratulations to Cory and Teagan. According to Craig, Cory "got it done" and he bowed down on one knee and got engaged. "Engaged" means that Taegan got a wedding ring and he is going to have a sister-in-law. Craig thinks a sister-in-law will be like Bethie. Hey, a cousin or a sister-in-law, it's all the same right? We're going to have to work on how the family tree branches out and how our family is all related! Today we had another doctor's appointment. Daddy, Mommy, and Baby are doing great. Baby's heartbeat is in the high 130s / low 140s range. We've got 8 weeks from today until our offical due date. Dr. Frances reports that Baby is measuring approximatley 33 weeks. Maybe the Baby will big or maybe he/she will come a bit early. I guess we'll wait and see! We hope everyone is having a good week, and we wish everyone a safe and fun weekend!

Back Together Again

This week was a busy week! On Tuesday, we got news that I didn't pass the glucose tolerance test that I took during doctors visit on Friday. On Wednesday, Austin left for his annual trip to Indianapolis for the Indiana Society of Professional Land Surveyors convention, and I went back to the doctor for another glucose tolerance test. After getting my blood drawn 4 times in only 3 hours my phobia of needles has drifted away! On Thursday, Kent and Jan were kind enough to entertain me for the evening by taking me out to eat at the Pepperoni Grill. Thank you Kent and Jan for keeping me company last night. Thursday was a day of great news - I passed the second glucose tolerance test. This is a blessing because sweets and carbs are my all time favorites! Today has been a wonderful day as I when I arrived home from work, Austin was home! Most of you know that I don't get overly excited about being home alone or hanging out by myself. I know that tonight I will get lots of rest now that Austin has arrived home safely. Also, I would like to thank my mom for staying with me on Wednesday night. I must admit that after living in town and the city my whole life it can be a bit scary through the night out in the boonies on a gravel road!
