Nothin' but a diabetic thing baybay

Ev will be two in less than a week. 

Seriously where has time gone? 

Didn't i just write a post announcing I was pregnant? Didn't I just write a post announcing she was born? 

No, seriously? Did I just post about her first birthday?!

I honestly feel like she should only be turning one right now..

She doesn't even have a crib anymore. Its gone.

My mom decided to take it apart while I was at work and Ev was with Hollie. (I wanted to keep her crib up just in case she didn't like the toddler bed) Then she rearranged her room. It looks WAY cute and it has a lot more room without a big old crib in there. Its seriously unbelievable. I remember putting that room together. :(

With that said. SHE LOVES HER BIG GIRL BED. She hops right in it and she even fights having bath time because she wants to go to bed in it. lol I'm not kidding.

I have been talking about getting a CGM. I don't know if I mentioned that I  went to the diabetes doctor at the beginning of the month. I really did. I actually made an appointment ALL by myself. Nobody pushed me into it and I went! I was 100% honest and told them that after I had Ev, I completely stopped taking care of myself. Seriously.. I think I went weeks without testing my bloodsugar. I'm honestly surprised I didn't end up in the hospital.

But since I've seen my doctor, and since I have seen that my insurance covers my CGM system 100% I am downright motivated and I've done a pretty good job at testing 6 times a day. Its nice to have a doctor who will actually work with me to get one. I'm testing 6x per day or more.. sometimes I do slack but I still try at and 4-5. Thats pretty damn good going from 0 times a day and skipping testing for weeks at a time to testing 6x a day. Its really a miracle and I'm damn proud of myself! I'm tired of feeling crummy and run down. I want to feel good, I want to have energy. I honestly think a lot of my depression problems I have had, have stemmed from my diabetes being so out of control. This is the first time I've actually taken action and actually have taken care of myself. rather then just saying I want too. Feels good. Now lets hope I can keep this up!

Ev's new Big girl room!


We had pictures taken by the lovely Kendyl at KeniB photography. Seriously, get your pictures done by her!! I got some amazing shots even though Ev was NOT happy.
