23week post

something I am bummed about actually is when I try to go back and compare pregnancies through reading my blog or looking at belly pics is that I don't have that much! I realize that not a whole lot of eventful things are going on at this point of pregnancy so there really isn't too much to go into detail about but I still wish I would have blogged more. I guess I just thought that I wouldn't forget exactly what it feels like at that point.. silly me. Anyways, I am still enjoying the comfortable stage of this process.. although there are many times I wish I could sleep on my back or belly.. I know that it gets worse so I am just appreciating what I get for now. Craving wise: I am a huge cereal eater (always have been) but I guess I just crave cinnamon mostly; cinnamon swirl bagels, cinnabon cereal, French toast (made with cinnamon lol). I am a HUGE carb eater if you can't tell, however, with my first pregnancy did learn I love fish! (So we eat salmon weekly). With this one I have learned that I love zucchini and yellow squash! yum! There are so many great recipes you can make with them and I will probably try them all by this may lol. I was talking to a friend (shout out rili! :D) and she was saying how slow my pregnancy is going at this point, 1) because she has known since day one but 2) because IT ACTUALLY IS! I definitely feel like it went by very quickly up until the twenties but now it is at a snail pace especially because I am getting more and more excited by the day to meet this little one! I was all about taking my time but now my excitement has just got the best of me. i see all these tiny babies and it makes me want him/her to be here already. I still know that my tune might be a little different come 4am feedings in may and June and I just have to keep reminding myself of that. I think/hope once these next 4 weeks go by and I get to go visit home and have my 28 wk appt. that things will start going by quicker for me after that. On another note, I am almost starting to grow out of my t-shirts :( .. Brett doesn't like the stage where I have to wear his because then he never has any lol. I am slowly but surely rebuilding my maternity wardrobe though. I do remember how terrible I felt with bayas pregnancy because I just hated feeling so huge and dressing like a bum.. however, I am hoping to have a different attitude this time but we will see.. I think if I end up gaining as much weight that I will probably be in the same boat. I just have to control cravings, eat the best I can, and stay active (easier said then done).
