Countdowns, Cravings, & Casual Clothing

We are just a few weeks away from being through the 1st trimester of watching Baby Mo grow.  So far, I feel pretty blessed to be sick-free.  Now, don't get me wrong if I don't eat when I feel the first signs of hunger, it's bad news bears.  I do continue to have my fair share of queasiness though.  I will not miss that at all!

Baby Klein born 4/27/11....Do I look like a natural??

Talk about cravings though.....WOOO!!  I have craved anything from spaghetti, cheese dip, chips & salsa (not out of the ordinary), Dr. Pepper (I never drink DP), and the list goes on.  Now, please tell me how I am only suppose to gain 25-30 lbs. with these crazy craving?  And this is only the beginning.  Imagine what they will be further down the road.  Comment at the bottom your craziest craving while you were pregnant?  I'm dying to know I'm not the only hopeless soul out there!!

I did break down and purchase my first pair of maternity jeans yesterday.  They are swell, let me tell you. (Insert sarcastic smirk here)  Thank goodness for Target and inexpensive clothes.  However, after wearing them all day today I now see why they were only $29.99.  Preggo tip of the day:  When someone tells you to just splurge and purchase an expensive pair of nice maternity jeans, they are not just talking to hear themselves talk.

All in all, we are still over the moon and soaking in every minute of pure bliss!  We can't wait for June 2nd to get here so we can see our sweet little baby again.

  1. I put hot sauce in EVERYTHING - like doused mac and cheese in it w/o telling Jon once - his face was priceless. I loved my motherhood maternity jeans, they were super cute and I was sad to get rid of them post baby (judge away! haha). Our intern said you interviewed her last week for a scholarship - small world!
