Baby... What do you like??

Hey all :)

I was reading today that sometime around this week the babe will start getting its nutrients from the umbilical cord - instead of the yolk sac. What a huge responsibility!! I feel like I should be eating whole grain everything and not even thinking about empty sugars!! :)

It is a mystery figuring out what to eat though - I'm in a stage where I'm hungry, but nothing really sounds good - not the most fun!!! I wish I was at the stage where EVERYTHING sounded good!

There is one food item that I am needing to have some self-control with though - and that is pineapple. I am LOVING pineapple! I think for the past 5 weeks I have been eating one whole pineapple a week... Anyhow! I would eat one whole one everyday, but I pace myself so it last for a few days... and then I go back to the grocery store and pick up another one!

So Dad and Linda... I was thinking... I would totally pay big bucks for some fresh pineapple from your Hawaii trip :) I bet that would be HEAVEN!! :)
Maybe it's not worth it though....

On a husband note, Ian has been such an awesome Dad-to-be lately! I honestly couldn't ask for a more supportive husband - Plus, he surprised me last Thursday on the way home from my grad class by putting Christmas candles in all of our windows - it looks beautiful!! It's nice to be pregnant when I can share it with my awesome husband! :)

Anyhow! Not too exciting of a post - if anyone has any ideas for food that might be good on a nauseous stomach, please feel free to let me know! I'm tiring of pretzels and crackers :(

Love you all!
Laura
