*This week's baby update is a day late on purpose because I wanted to combine it with a doctor's appointment update.*
  The kid hiccuped to at least 60 before I lost track in church Sunday night.
  It's very opinionated (you're not surprised?) and doesn't like me propping books or setting remotes on my belly when I'm laying down.  I get rewarded with some type of roundhouse kick or karate jujitsu move.  I can't see in there but it seems like things get pretty wild at times!
  Eating breakfast is a little tricky when someone is kicking your stomach.
  I took my sugar test at the doctor this morning and I passed it the first time.  (The juice wasn't as bad as I'd heard it would be, sort of like a melted Popsicle.)  122 out of "it can't be over 140."  My iron was perfect she said, 12.7, so no nasty iron pills for me.  Yay!  
  I lost a pound from last month.  (How did that happen?)  My belly measured on schedule and the baby's heartbeat sounded good.
  One of my coworkers gave me two birth books for Christmas- Hypnobirthing and Lamaze.  If I had the Bradley Method book I'd have the hippie section covered.  When I told her thanks for the present she said, "I know how you pregnant types like to read."  ha!
  My appointments are now three weeks apart instead of the normal once a month or every five weeks.
