Raspberry Bebe

Yes, this week, our little one is the size of a raspberry, or my thumbnail. What a funny thought... it is very exciting.

Now that things are feeling a bit more real, I am starting to wonder/worry about work. I think I can stave it off for a couple more weeks. I think everything will feel much more real as soon as we hear the heartbeat, and then I am going to have to figure out what we want to do (with work) after the baby is born.

I am VERY mood swingy. Oooo- it is bad. I think it is affected by my blood sugar as well. Often, if I am feeling sick or horribly bitchy, if I drink a little apple-juice-water I feel better. Perhaps it is a soothing because it reminds me of childhood, or it may just be the high sugar content.

Getting in all of my nutrients is getting a little tougher. The one I am currently having trouble with is dairy. I have to eat 4 servings of that A DAY. THAT IS A LOT!!! And when you are trying not to consume too many saturated fat grams, cheese is not the best option... I imagine I will get the swing of it eventually. But MAN it can be really difficult sometimes.

Our Disney Trip is getting closer. (3 days away!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT IS ACTUALLY HERE!) Now I am getting a bit nervous about the details... Getting to the airport on time, packing... Did I schedule everything correctly? This has been my labor of love and I want it to come out perfectly.
