Finally....some relief

As most of you know, Daniel and I are currently dealing with our insurance issue. I was able to contact a certified midwife and she gave me prices for having Landon at home. She had deadlines for her prices and the cheapest price she had she graciously extended the deadline for me, in case I decide to go that route. I have a little more hope that I wont have to go that route but I am pretty prepared in case I do.
When I emailed the midwife she told me that if I have him at home then I would need my medical records and lab records from my pregnancy thus far....so yesterday was definitely a full day! I started off by going to Starbucks with one of my friends that I hadn't seen since my wedding. We spent a lot of time talking about what has been going on and she announced to me that she is now pregnant too! Now, two of my friends are pregnant! How fun! This means both of my friend's babies will be the same age group to be in the same class for school when they are older! Landon's potential friend group is growing and growing and that is exciting.
Anyways, after stopping a couple of other places I headed over to my Doctor's office and picked up my medical records (so I will have them...just in case). While I was there I asked them if they take AHCCCS. They stated they take every form except for one! That was great...because that will probably be what we will be getting soon and it will be better if I don't change things up now.
I also recently found out that I might still be insured. Not exactly sure how, but we have to look that up and make sure we are covered, in some form, for the baby.
After I finished my tutoring session at my mom's school I dropped the little girl off and headed over to the grocery store. I have been thinking how it is interesting to see different peoples reaction to my big pregnant belly. Some just look at my belly then look up at me with no smile on their face. I wonder what those people are thinking when they do that because it is not a happy look...maybe they are just thinking "oh my gosh....she's pregnant?!" I just walk on. But yesterday at the grocery store a couple of the old people that saw me were so sweet. One elderly lady was coming around the corner of one of the aisles and stopped abruptly. With a smile on her face she was like "I dont want to hit that!" referring to my belly. I just said "it's alright" so she knew that I would wait for her while she turned the corner. Then while I was in the parking lot I was offered a shopping cart by an older man so I wouldnt have to carry all of my grocery bags by hand.
I finished off the night with my husband by relaxing and watching some new shows, eating peppermint ice cream and one of my new favorites-ICE!
Hope everything is going well for everyone reading this...and my little wiggle worm, Landon says hi!
