I had another doctor appt today and all is well. Doctor Folkstad checked my cervix because I have had a few Braxton Hicks contractions in the last week, but thank goodness all is well and baby Makayla wont be trying to get out anytime soon we hope. I also had to have the Gestational Diabetes test before my appointment which consisted of me drinking this horrible drink (fruit punch flavored with about 99% sugar mixed in) then they drew blood. I should have the results back in about a week but I'm not worried. The drink although gave me a sugar rush which caused me to talk more than usual this morning (I know you didn't think that was possible). Matter of fact at one point Nick had to ask me to take a breath and SLOW down. Apparently Makayla felt the rush as well because her heart rate is always between 144-146 and today it was 154! Other than that all is well and we are right on target. I am still down 7 pounds from my original weight pre-pregnancy so I really don't have much to complain about yet. My next appt update wont be until June 19th so I will let you all know how it's going soon.
P.S. Oh also Makayla now makes my entire stomach move when she is kicking and rolling over. Nick thinks it is so strange to watch but it is amazing!

I know that we have not been the best at keeping everyone informed but this should help. We are so happy about our newest addition to our family Makayla Rose Johnson and can't wait to share everything with you.
