What a Day!

This morning the girls went back to school after a 2 week vacation. It was snowing this morning so I decided I would drive the girls to school instead of the girls riding their bikes to school. I then drove downtown (in the snow) for my my 25 week check-up. I was early to my appointment but had to wait an hour to see my doctor...I guess that never changes no matter what country your in! My doctor was able to get a pretty good picture of our baby girl, and really great video's of our baby moving around at 25 weeks. My doctor also noticed that my iron level is super low so on Wednesday I will start receiving iron injections through an IV twice a week for 4 weeks. This way the iron will get into my system immediately as opposed to waiting days for the iron pills to kick in. The baby is doing great, growing well and moving like crazy! She is just having a ball inside my tummy! However all my iron is going straight to her and I'm not getting much at all. I have been feeling very weak, but didn't realize it was this bad. I'm not too excited about going downtown twice a week and especially if its snowing. So keep me in your prayers. For this "South Texas", "Never driven in snow before" girl is scared to drive downtown!!
