But, my baby wants to eat that...

Okay, so, I'm 28 weeks pregnant & that is my excuse for this blogpost. Actually, anything concerning food these days (what I eat, how much I eat, when I eat) gets blamed on my poor little baby just hanging out & growing in my uterus! HA! So, baby girl, it seems today I can't get enough to eat. And, you know what? I can only gain a half a lb a week for the rest of this pregnancy (that's what being overweight prior to pregnancy will getcha). No, people, don't worry, I am not dieting. I'm not that stupid. But, I can think of tons of things that sound so good to eat right now (other than the green grapes I'm currently munching on). Oh yeah, and, I have to do the whole gestational diabetes test in like a week & I'm trying to replace all my sweet cravings with fruit. I honestly don't know if cutting back on sweets will help my chances of not getting gestational diabetes, but, hey, in my mind, it makes me feel better about it all.


Here are a few things that sound absolutely YUM right now:

If these were in my pantry right now, I would eat the whole box. Good thing they're not in my pantry anymore...

Easter is right around the corner, and that means these are on the shelves at Walmart! *Which also means I have to stay away from the candy aisle!*

If the hot light is on, you better stop (whether you're pregnant or not, and if you ARE pregnant, hey, the baby wants a doughnut because the hot light is on).

Woo, now that all that's out of my system, I think I'll eat some more grapes!

A little bit of mush never hurt anyone...

I can't sleep, so, I thought I'd share a few things. I'm so thankful for the 2nd trimester of pregnancy. I know it will be over soon, but I have felt great! The most special moment thus far in my pregnancy occurred this trimester. I felt my baby girl kick for the first time (Oh yeah, by the way, we're having a girl!). It never gets old. I feel so blessed to be able to be a mama, and I am so looking forward to it. The Lord blesses me everyday. I love her already, and I've never even met her.

I just wanted to say, also, I feel so blessed to be married to my man! In the military, whenever we're apart, it makes the time that we spend together so much more precious, in my opinion. I have learned to not take the time that we have together for granted. So, even if he's in the field for a little while or gone overseas for a long while, whenever he gets home, it is such a good feeling (Even if we're just relaxing at home, cooking out & having movie night-Love it). I love that man with all my heart; he is my soulmate. Oh yeah, and I can't wait to have his baby!

Okay, now that I've thrown all this mushiness at you, just thought I'd top it off with some of my favorite pics & memories with my sweet hubby!

Night of our first date!
