My Husband's Child

So if any of you know my husband you know that his diet consists of meat and potatoes and any variation thereof...He does not eat fruit and does not eat veggies (except of course potatoes and corn) Well, I've come to conclude that I am indeed carrying his child. Every time I eat any type of fruit or veggie I literally am ill. At first I thought it was a coincidence but it indeed is not. If I eat an apple...sick. If I eat grapes...sick. pineapple....sick. lettuce....sick. tomatoes....sick etc. My diet has been limited to grains and meat. I loathe meat! Before I meet Les I was a vegetarian and now the only thing I can eat without getting ill is chicken and occasionally red meat.

This is very upsetting for me because I love fruit and veggies. I would eat them all day if I could. I'm sickened to think that my child is going to eat like my husband. It's a very boring diet and I run out of things to make for dinner very quickly. So I'm just hoping its a pregnancy thing and when Eden is born I can shove fruits and veggies down her throat and make her like them. To make matters worst I can't ever find anything to eat. I have no cravings and NOTHING sounds good to me. Usually I get to a point where I get sick from not eating and I force myself to eat toast or something to put the hunger pains at bay. This pregnancy stuff I exhausting!

24 Weeks...Let the Count Down Begin

So I'm officially 24 weeks and it totally weirds me out. Is it normal to feel like I can't wait for it to be September already so I can hold my little baby but then at the same time be completely terrified for whats to come...no only for what the baby has in store but mostly the rapid changes taking place in my body? Is it horrible to completely mortified about what's going to happen to my dear little body? Don't get me wrong I've been wanting a baby for a very long time but I'm not sure I've been wanting the repercussions that my body will take because of it. Every time I try (key word try) and put some pants on I cry a little because they are a little tighter than the last time and now I can't even zip up my zippers! I'm too small for maternity pants but my regular pants with the hair thing trick aren't cutting it either. Oh woe is me!

On a littler note, Eden is moving around like a mad woman. I really am beginning to think that she is a gymnast. Sometimes I can barely move because she seems to be using my internal organs as a trampoline (especially my bladder). Body issues aside, I'm feeling good and am getting excited to finally enter the last stretch of this pregnancy...a mere 100 days to go! Remember when you were in elementary and you knew summer was coming once you hit the 100 days mark? I think it's because you start seeing the double digits. Well, I feel like I'm in elementary school all over again and I even considered making one of those paper train things that you pull off a circle everyday...you know what I'm taking about.

I know a bunch of you have been waiting to see some belly shots since last time you all "claimed" that I didn't even look pregnant. Well, I'm definitely feeling and looking pregnant now. So here's a picture to prove it.

24 weeks
Now for some reason I always take these pictures after I've been working out or something so I always look SO glamorous...so please excuse the no make up or hair not being done.
