Well, just got the good news from my OB nurse. I had the gestational diabetes test today and passed! My iron count was also within the normal limits. Not to mention the nurse was able to find a good vein on the first try. Last time it took 3 pokes in my hand and 2 nurses, as well as me almost passing out.
One more week and I'll officially be in my third trimester. 14 weeks (and yes I'm counting) until we meet little Colin! I'm feeling pretty good (despite the back pain that makes getting a good night's sleep rough) and have only gained 18 pounds. Unfortunately I didn't date my pregnant pics with Alex, but from what I can gather I was about the same size for him at this stage in the game. Must be a boy thing.
We'll try to get Christmas pics and videos up soon. Right now we're really busy with New Years Fireworks returns. Our new Director of Operations is on the road picking up the leftover product but should be back next week. Once I train him on the things I've been doing, I shouldn't have to darken the door of TNT for a few months at least. And even then it will be on a very part time basis!!! I've enjoyed the change in pace from teaching, but it will be nice to have a break from TNT as well.

Good work! I go in for my test on Monday, and for this pregnancy I have selected the most delicious fruit punch flavor for the gooky drink. Last time was orange, so I figure that variety is the spice of life. :)
Fruit Punch would have been my choice too, but it was orange or lemon/lime... so I went with orange. Good luck!
Welcome back!! I was hoping everything was okay when you were quiet for so long!! Missed you!
Woohoo! Congrats on the positive news!
