The Worst Drink Ever

So, I have to say...this is absolutely the worst drink ever!  You'd think that they could come up with a better way to do the Glucose Tolerance Test when you're pregnant.  I mean, seriously, one time in a woman's life when her gag reflex goes out the window and everything seems to make her nauseous, they want you to drink something that is supposed to taste like Tang, but instead just tastes like crap!  haha, anways, enough of my rant on the drink, I did get my call today that I passed, so I don't have to A) go sit for the extended test (and drink more of this stuff) and B) I definitely don't have gestational diabetes...

25 Weeks

25 weeks??!  Already?!?!  I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is flying by!  It seems like just yesterday we were letting Ryan telling his grandparents and everyone that he was going to be a big brother, and now we're on the "downward" side of it.  I remember feeling like I had been pregnant forever with Ryan, but not so much with this one.  I guess it really is true that every pregnancy is different.  And we have finally come up with a name for Baby #2...Jensen James Wooten.  Jensen was just a name that we both felt "fit" and James is Casey's middle name, and his grandmother's maiden name, so it's been around a while. 

Jensen is a very active and rambunctious individual...he is in constant motion, which, in turn, constantly keeps me entertained.  I can't believe how much I missed feeling a baby move around inside...it's unlike anything else you'll ever experience, and it's something that just seems so special.  It's your first contact, so-to-speak, between mother and child and something that strictly belongs to you two.  Granted, Casey and Ryan have had their chances to see/feel Jensen kick too, but its nothing (in my opinion) compared to feeling it almost constantly.  I have to say, I will definitely miss it when he get's here, although holding him in my arms will completely make up for it. :)
