S'more Please


I'm now in my twenty seventh week of pregnancy! Only thirteen more weeks to go! I really cannot believe how fast this is happening. I am really loving being pregnant though. It's so strange how I can love the little guy so much and we have never even met face to face! And he is getting stronger and stronger every day. The other day Tim wanted to see if he put his ear up to my belly if he might be able to hear the baby moving around. Well, right after he set his head on my stomach the baby gave him a giant kick in the head! It was the funniest thing I had seen all week! I wonder how much the little guy is aware of in there. I wonder if the kick was more a reflex or if he just really was irritated that something heavy was sitting on top of him. Either way it sure surprised Tim!

The baby is still continuing to wake up around four thirty every morning despite my best efforts to stay asleep myself. I really feel I'm starting to recognize his sleep and wake patterns now. I guess it's a good thing. I better get used to this because once he is born I won't have time to get cranky.

So last night I was really craving chocolate. I know it's probably not the best thing to be craving but I couldn't help it! So I sent Tim to the store to pick up the ingredients to make s'mores. And boy were they good! The only bad thing was that I ate them while sitting in bed and got melted chocolate on my favorite blanket. And on top of that I couldn't even wash it because the washer and dryer are still broken. So my blanket is stuck with this awful brown stain on it until the end of the week. But I'm not sorry, it was worth it.

I'm a little bit nervous because at the end of the week I have to go to the doctor's for the glucose screening test. I hate sitting at the doctor's office so the idea of having to spend a whole hour there just makes me sick. I am also crossing my fingers that I pass the test. I would hate to have to be on a special diet for the rest of my pregnancy. Maybe I shouldn't have anymore s'mores! Anyway, wish me luck with that one!

I'm sure that your glucose test will go just fine, and the hour test isn't that bad. It goes pretty fast..just take a good book.
Oh and I actually laughed out loud when I read the part about Tim getting kicked in the head. HA HA. Kids are great even when they're in the womb!
