I'm 29 weeks pregnant today on the 29th of October! I can't even explain how fast this is all going for me. It seems like Baby Ballard will be here soon and I am looking forward to his arrival more than words can share.
This past Monday we had an ultrasound to check his growth. Here's Parker and his chubby little cheeks! He's already weighing about 3 lbs and looks great! We think he has my chin and cheeks and are eager to see what he looks like when he gets here. Hopefully he will have his Daddy's pretty hazel eyes. We are just so blessed that he's healthy and growing strong.
Please say a prayer for me, I've been feeling good, tired but good. I did find out that I am anemic and have to take an additional supplement, which is not a huge deal to me but may explain some of the tiredness. I also got the news that I failed the first glucose test that I took on Monday, this tests for gestational diabetes. I have to take the 3 hour test in the morning (Friday) which I'm dreading. I didn't enjoy the sugar fruit punch,I asked for orange but fruit punch was all they had cold at the doctor. I'm begging for another flavor tomorrow. I have high hopes that I will pass this time and I'm trying to stay positive about being poked 3 times with a needle in 3 hours! I know this is just a small part of my pregnancy journey and Parker will be here so soon!

Hi! My due date is March 21. :) I go take my glucose test next month. I hope it doesn't taste too bad. :)
I'll be praying for you!!
That is a very sweet picture of Parker, thank you for sharing it! Looks like Parker is going to be born with some chubby cheeks, Kendall was that way! Infact that was the first thing Dr Nieves said about her when she was born..."Look at those cheeks!" Hope all goes well today!! I will keep you in my prayers!!
