No nest to nest

The baby items are piling up in the baby's room, but nothing has been put away - or put together. We haven't even bought a crib yet. Thanksgiving - the week the baby is due (on JG's birthday) is also the same week JG returns from combat skills training for deployment and the same week we pick up keys to move into senior NCO housing, just a couple blocks from here. So, you can see there's no real sense in "getting ready."

We didn't expect to move homes this year - so in preparation for the baby we moved Edward into Zachary's room where he inherited Zachary's new bedroom furniture from last year. Zachary went downstairs into the basement, in the room Aunt Heather used to stay. He's been sleeping on the trundle, though, in the 'nursery' since we found out about the new house. It's at least 10 degrees colder downstairs all the time.

Last night Zachary forgot to take his nighttime insulin - so today he's been on the higher end of his target blood sugar range. He's come a long way in just two months - he's even giving himself nearly every shot he needs to take. His insulin doses are about half of what they initially were to regulate him.
