Spring Cravings

I have been having some new spring cravings I thought I would share.

I am still craving Ice Water like CRAZY, which if you know me is crazy. I have super sensitive teeth and normally can't stand ice cold beverages.

Here is my solution-insulated plastic cup w/ straw (Just happened to get this snazy Starbucks one as a gift) now the cold doesn't directly hit my teeth...Genius!

Not to say that I am over my cravings of fresh fruit and veggies but I have definitely ventured out...to ice cream or Drumsticks rather. I could eat five a day (I won't, but I could!)

mmmm, just looking at this pic makes me want one...right now...

And at two days shy of 30 weeks pregnant, I am getting uncomfortable and hot! I know it's only March and I don't want to image May heat, I may break into a sweat just thinking about it. I think I may need a Maxi dress or two to help me through the home stretch...

I love this green color for spring...

Looks like comfort to me...in my favorite color

or this fun striped one.

I may have to run into Old Navy tonight and see what they have since their dresses happen to be on sale this week.

I love Spring and the beautiful weather it brings.

Pregnant Pains

I am fully aware that I am a huge baby when it comes to being pregnant.

I am not one of those women that love it- in fact, the only thing I even remotely like (ok, love) about being pregnant is the baby that I get at the end.

This being said, I have been in alot of pain lately which explains my lack of posts.

Sciatic nerve pain which to me is the worst. To find relief I must lay down (which makes it hard to be productive) or stand up (which doing for too long makes me dizy and lightheaded, another problem in itself).

So this weekend and for many days now I have been lying down as much as possible.

My poor hubby.

The weekend wasn't all bad, I did manage to register for my shower (FINALLY) and I snuck in a movie with some girls.

We saw The Hunger Games and I LOVED it!

here's hoping I can find at least some small relief soon...

26 Weeks

Today is 26 weeks..14 (or so to go)...

I had dinner last night with two of my besties, Abby and Sarah. Sarah is also pregnant so we had a little belly fun.

Abby put this pic on FB and asked people to guess which one is having twins (Sarah, not me).

This is me & my friend Sarah

In defense of my hugeness, I am 8 weeks ahead of her and she will quickly pass me up once those twins start growing. We had such a good time catching up at dinner, it was exactly what this preggo needed

This week in my pregnancy...

The books say the baby is now the size of an English hothouse cucumber (really...can't they make a comparison people can understand) or almost 2 pounds and about 14 inches long.

-I have had really bad hip pain this week and apparently look pretty funny when I walk.

-I don't want to eat anything.

-I am constantly thirsty for ice water.

-Sleeping has been pretty hit or miss this week (probably because of all that ice water).

-I have had more energy this week than I have probably since I found out I was pregnant. I will enjoy it while it lasts.
