THE FAM!!

Greg and I thought this was a good picture of the Spencer Family enjoying "an adventure" at Fort Hunt Park.

P.S Gabe looks a little out of it because Greg set the camera to take the picture and then RAN over to us, it was quite a sight!!

Birthday Girl

On Thursday, May 17th, I turned 28!! I had a wonderful day.

First, Greg made me breakfast before I dropped Sam off at school and the little boys at the Child Developement Center. Once free, I high tailed my little hiney over to the hospital for my doctors appointment and some routine tests. Of course my doctor didn't put the orders for lab in correctly so I had to run all over the hospital to get it put in before my appointment. This was my 28 week appointment so I had to have my one hour Glucose test and blood drawn for my Rho-Gam shot. The tech said I set a world record for the speed at which I drank my "orange kool-aid" for the glucose test (geez, I'm in a hurry and it really doesn't tast that bad)! After my one hour was up they drew more blood, and then I proceeded to bleed all over my arm and my purse, fun, fun. I rushed over to another area of the lab to pick up my Rho-Gam shot (I have 0- blood and Greg has 0+, if they didn't give me shots, there is a chance my body could build up antibodies and attack my baby) and basically ran to my appointment. As soon as I got in with the doctor the fire alarm started going off, more adventure for the day! We all had to leave the hospital and walk was across the street, just in case. Luckily we got back in fairly quickly and I saw the doctor again. Dr. Kunar said everything looked good and he sent me to get my Rho-Gam shot, which they deliver in your upper thigh/butt! Happy Birthday to me, huh?!

After my head spinning day at the hospital, Greg met me for lunch at Macaroni Grill. It was really nice to eat lunch in a nice quiet adult restaurant. After lunch I picked up the kiddos and went home for a rest. I think my second trimester energy has worn off, I'm very tired and totally unmotivated.

When Greg got home from work he and the boys got busy decorating the kitchen for my "party". I had a wonderful ice cream cake, and got an awesome new Epson PhotoMate Snap, it was a very thoughtful gift! I had a wonderful day. Here are some pics from the big day.

Belly, Belly, Belly

Yesterday afternoon we spent the afternoon with the Kules. Ryan is officially retired from the army as of yesterday so we thought we would celebrate. Nancy is VERY pregnant and VERY ready to have the baby!! Here is a picture of us together. I will be 26 weeks tommorow.
