Made it to March!!!

It's hard to believe I finally made it to March. It seems like it was just yesterday that I was finding out we were going to have a baby. Now I'm anxiously awaiting his arrival. I don't want him to come too early, but I sure can't wait to see his cute little face! We have pretty much everything ready to go besides needing to pick up some diapers. I'd like to get some additional bottles too, but I have enough of the little bottles to get by for now. I kind of want to go to Costco and price their diapers but at this point, I don't think I want to travel an hour for diapers. So looks like I'll be going with the Up & Up brand at Target like I did with Alex. Let's just hope the quality is still the same. They used to be a lot like Pampers, and I loved Pampers for Alex. They just cost so much more than Up & Up. The best part is I can have them auto shipped for a discount AND I also get 5% for using my Redcard so I say WINNING! I could probably spen

It's February!

Hey everyone! Totally Jen here and thought it would be a good idea to at least make a new post for February. Time seems to be flying by already. Next thing I know it's going to be January 2020... There's been a lot of emotions for the last few weeks. I'm guessing it's due to my hormones and the weekly shot I have to get to prevent preterm labor. Plus all the stress of a high-risk pregnancy. Poor Bryan! Speaking of pregnancy, so far everything is looking really good. I just got another biophysical profile done today and Ethan passed with flying colors. Next week, we get to see measurements and make sure he is on track. For those of you who are not aware when you have diabetes in pregnancy a high birth weight is common. Last time they checked he was spot on and for the most part, my blood sugars have mostly been in check. So I'm thinking everything should be on track. I've really been biting at the bit to get everything all ready for Ethan but at the same ti

It's been a year?!?!?

I totally can't believe it's been an entire year since I made my last blog post. I did create my FB Totally Jen page and have been posting short updates on that! Please go out and like my page for the most current updates and inspirations  https://www.facebook.com/TotallyJenH/ . So let's see to get this blog updated real quick... I found out I was pregnant in July of 2018, and we are expecting our little boy Ethan James about mid-March. The original due date is March 31st, however, due to complications with the pregnancy and prior issues the doctor wants to go at least 2 weeks early. Wish me luck as I head into the home stretch! We've almost lived in our house for a whole year, and we love it! The holidays were so nice having all the extra space for friends and family. We have added two new additions to our household. The first one is Sadie our standard poodle. She is very pretty and full of energy. She's been giving me a run for my money that's for sure.
