Hot Doughnuts Now

I got a phone call first thing this morning that my amnio has been scheduled for Friday, March 1st. I have to be at the hospital at 5:30am and we will know sometime that morning (hopefully) if the baby's lungs are developed enough for them to go ahead and induce me. Shortly after receiving the phone call, a woman came by the house to buy our extra BOB stroller. We aren't really sure how we ended up with two but my best guest is that when the baby store came to deliver our furniture last year after Nolan passed away, they accidentally brought two BOBs and left them in our closet. We weren't here when they delivered and set up the furniture and we refused to go into the nursery for some time so we had no idea what they had done in there. Since we hadn't looked through all the boxes stacked away in that closet for over 9 months we didn't know until just recently that we even had two BOB boxes in there. So, I posted one on craigslist over the weekend and in less than 24 hours someone wanted to buy it. Now that it's sold, I went online to purchase the umbrella stroller Marshall and I had decided upon over the weekend. Basically, we will have two strollers for less than the price of one BOB! I also purchased the Snuza Hero. Tina first told me about the Snuza when she had Harper. It's this little device that clips onto the baby's diaper and detects whether the baby is breathing or not. If the baby doesn't breath for so many seconds the Snuza vibrates to arouse the baby and if the baby still doesn't start breathing the Snuza then starts alarming by beeping and vibrating to awaken the parents. It's a great SIDS precaution and I will spare no cost to make sure our baby stays alive and healthy.

I had lunch with Dino today at Tower 7 as he is leaving tomorrow to head back down to Florida to see his son Dylan. I know that drive has got to be getting so old for him having to make it twice every month. Hopefully, the trial in March will change things for the better for Dino and allow him to spend more time with son and less time traveling. After lunch I changed and went to Zumba. This is Karson's last week teaching her M/W class at the Y. This would be really devastating news to me if she didn't also teach at Babs and it was so close to my house. Zumba really helped me to have something to focus on after Nolan's death and it really helped me to work through my pain. I no longer go to anyone's classes other than Karson's. I will see who they get to replace her for the M/W afternoon classes and if I like them I will consider going to those classes. After class I decided to indulge in one of my cravings - Krispy Kreme doughnuts. I wanted them all weekend and never got any so I drove through the Krispy Kreme on the way home and got a dozen HOT doughnuts. Yum! I ate three of them on the way home and two more once I got home and I didn't care a bit. They were exactly what I wanted and I would have never been able to eat even one doughnut when I was pregnant with Nolan. Since I don't have gestational diabetes this time I can eat them though and they were so worth it. I know they completely negate any calories I burned at Zumba today but I don't care. After all, that is why I go to Zumba so I can indulge every now and then and not gain more weight than I should be.
