Photo Every Hour: November 21st

Well, the good news is I remembered to take my December photos on the 21st like usual. The bad news is I can't post them yet because apparently I haven't written up my November 21st post. Whoops.

6:33 AM I'm so grateful that my husband built such a nice closet for all our clothes. And I'm grateful that I can afford clothes to fill said closet. Now if I could just find some clothes that fit this pregnant body (that I actually want to wear) life would be great

7:00 Breakfast of Champions (see also: Breakfast for those with Gestational Diabetes. Womp womp)

8:00 On my way to an appointment to meet with the Gestational Diabetes nurses and go over my diet and glucose numbers (spoiler: my numbers are good and I already eat a healthy, well-balanced diet. But I still need to check my numbers four times a day just to be sure. This GD thing is kind of a joke)

9:00 At least the boys enjoyed our trip to the main campus of the hospital so they could jump over cars from the sky walk

10:00 Exploring at the Old Courthouse Museum after doing a little story and craft

11:00 When you have a doctor's appointment at 8:30 in the morning sometimes you don't get around to making coffee until lunch time. But afternoon coffee is still better than no coffee

12:00 Reading up before nap time on how to prepare for his new baby (although nine times out of ten he still thinks Mommy just has a ball in her tummy)

1:00 Fiber (squash)? Check. Protein? Check. Well-portioned carbs (breading on chicken and honey mustard sauce for chicken)? Check. At least this GD business doesn't get in the way of my eating what I like

2:00 Sometimes I need a little mid-day "Friends" to help get me through

3:00 They look like they are up to something important.... I haven't the faintest idea what it is though

4:00 Because all two-year olds cook Jambalaya, right?

5:00 Typical

6:00 At a Skate Party for William's school. This was his first attempt roller skating and he was so determined to do it by himself. He may have been on the ground as much as he was on his feet, but bless his heart, the kid didn't stop smiling all night

7:00 "Snack" break. Because when you are a growing six-year old who has been on roller skates for the past hour, a full hot dog and bag of chips is definitely just a snack.

8:00 I've got less than 48 hours until my niece's birthday party... Probably time to start making the cake, right?

9:00 Still working....

10:00 Done. And since I started the post on a note of gratitude toward my husband, I'll end on one too: Not only does he tolerate my baking antics, but nine times out of ten he'll step in and do the dishes for me after I'm done making a mess of the kitchen. I love my husband 
Cakes are out of the oven, dishes are done, and we are off to bed!
