Went to school for about an hour today just to get the notes for the final tomorrow. John was at home with Ethan.
Took Ethan to the doctor today. He is gaining weight. He now weighs 61/2 pounds and is 18 3/4 inches. I am glad to know he is gaining weight since he was so little to begin with. The doctor says he is doing good and he will see us when he is 2 months.
I also went to the diabetes doctor today. She says my sugar levels are right on the border so it is pre-diabetes. I shouldn't have to take my insulin and she says I shouldn't have to watch what I eat. I will stick to the diet Dr. Pepper though, I kind of like it. I don't even have to check my blood anymore but I will every now and then just to see how it is. She wants to see me back in 4 weeks just to do a blood glucose tolerance test. I know I want to keep it in check because I know my mother's mom had diabetes and didn't keep it in check and she had kidney problems and then a stroke because it went unchecked. I don't know about my mom but I know it can skip a generation.

Why'd you have to remind me about grandma having diabetes? Darn it :) I wish we knew if mom had it but if she did, she probably doesn't know it herself.
