I am better.. lol

Ok after my hissy fit in my last post I am doing so much better :O)

I did a lot of searching on the net and found a nice chat for Children with Diabetes...and where they ever helpful!!! I think now I might have all the papers I will need to get Samantha's school off their behinds!! I found out how to make a 504 plan something set up by the state that they HAVE to provide care for my baby...they want me to come up to the school 2 times a day everyday something I cant really do after the baby is born. I figure I will go to the school for a week and train these people and just kept throwing papers at them if need be...lol For once I don't feel so lost and helpless when it comes to the school.

I am even getting Chuck to do more I am not giving him much of a choice I am just giving him her insulin pen and telling him how much to give her..and Samantha is checking her own blood levels now and wants to start doing her own shots with that cool new pen she has ...every bit helps believe me! She is trying to learn and do things for herself after she got a letter from her new pen pal who is the same age told her that she started doing her own shots a week after she found out she had Diabetes. When we go shopping Samantha is so funny she looks at all packages to tell me how many carbs is in this or that then if she thinks the carbs are low of course she will ask me to buy it..lol got to love it. Its just so nice to see her trying to take part in her health care...the better she does the faster she may be able to get the pump. That's her real goal.

As far as me I am TRYING to slow down a bit but its not easy when you use to overdrive. I still have to get up at 2 am to test Samantha's blood and wake her up by 7:20 every morning for school... can we say not much sleeping, guess I 'll be use to it by the time the baby gets here I wont be sleping then either...lol. Since we have been home from the hospital I have not been home all day once, I am either at the school, store, Dr's, dental visits, which by the way I have 2 more going tomorrow and after that I have to take Samantha up to the hospital for a special test...praying this test comes out saying she has, not type 1 diabetes and its not really type 2 the Dr called it in between 1 & 2 Diabetes if she has this she would be able to take oral meds and not shots...PRAYING hard!!!!!

I think after tomorrow I might not have to do as much running..YIPPIE

I am getting pretty big, I went bowling today and everyone there was asking me when I am due thinking it was soon I kind of got shocked looks when I told them I am not due till Dec 10th..it was funny to watch their eyes pop..lol

This little guy is getting pretty active in there when I have a few seconds to sit down and notice. I am going to have to try and find time in the next few months to go car seat shopping...wow this is going to happen sooner then I think isnt it

I'll try and post the outcome of my meeting with the school...this should be fun.

Here is Samantha on her first day of school
