29 Weeks... spinning around!

This past week has been a difficult one.  Two days in a row I had symptoms of shakiness, light-headedness, nausea, and confusion.  After visiting my OB/GYN I was told that I had hypoglycaemic attacks (i.e. low blood sugar attacks).  Not sure how this can happen when chocolate is my best friend!  Not to mention the Christmas Jujubes on my co-workers desk I’ve already had to replace... and will need to again.

Yesterday I ended up in the hospital.  I had the worst dizzy spell of my life.  Thankfully I have some great co-workers who took care of me and helped the dizziness go away.  But I was still frightened at what happened since it was pretty intense, and also worried about it happening to me when I drive.  I was told the same thing at the hospital that my OB/GYN said: my blood sugar plummeted but this time I had symptoms of vertigo.  Anyway, I’m good now but need to rest well all weekend.  So I’ve PVR’d a bunch of Christmas and W network movies and am parking my rump on the couch.

Jesse has decorated the house with our Christmas decorations to make sure we celebrate Christmas right, even though I can’t help and he’s super busy.  He bought a Christmas tree for us last night (unfortunately we didn't get the 10 foot Gris-Ward Christmas tree this time) and put up our Christmas lights on the house before I woke up this morning.  He definitely knows how to cheer me up.

Jesse’s mom, Cindy, came by today to keep me company while I rested.  She brought this wonderful gift with her that was from Jesse’s Aunt Kim.  It was a pair of handmade moccasins that were created by a native friend of theirs.  They are the cutest little moccasins I’ve ever seen and will get as much wear possible by Baby Wardette!  Thank you Aunt Kim!
