Week 27 -- To Cervix, With Love

We had another doctor's appointment this morning. Today, Lisa had a blood test to check her glucose level to make sure she doesn't have gestational diabetes; we should find out the results in a few days. And just in case she's diabetic, she called Wilford Brimley to get some information about Liberty Medical (man...all that guy talks about is oatmeal and "Cocoon".) Also, the ultrasound showed that the kids are fine and healthy. And Lisa's cervix is still holding up well, so no need for bed rest. The funny thing is that Lisa makes this very distinct face before the doctor exams her cervix. I call it the Cervix Face:Not only is Lisa not accustomed to her larger girth, but neither am I nor inanimate objects. I have occasionally bumped and swung long objects (i.e. wrapping paper, a broom, timber) into Lisa's belly. And in our underground garage, you need to go in between a couple of cars to enter the elevator lobby. Sadly, as Lisa squeezes herself between the cars, she has set off the car alarm many times as her tummy aggressively jostles the side view mirror. That poor Toyota Celica...
