how does something so little need so much?

we made our way to Babies R Us yesterday.

WOW!

not only is there a lot to think about, there are A LOT of choices! do you get an audio monitor or a video monitor? a pack-n-play with music or without? and let's not even discuss strollers! those things are massive...and they cost more than a montly law school loan payment!

but Ryan has the babybjorn figured out. I, however, still think you need a Ph. D. in order to figure out the 87 straps.

we head to the doctor in the morning for our 20 week appointment and sonogram!

movement

It's official! I've been feeling Baby WiKS moving the last few days, and it's so...weird!

When chatting with my dad yesterday, he wanted to know if we've got a soccer player in there like its mommy, or a football player like its daddy. I'm not quite sure yet, but whatever "it" is, its certainly moving around a lot!

Next week is the 20-week ultrasound! But until we get the pictures from that photo shoot, here's a picture at 19 weeks. Enjoy!

I just ate 3 PB&J sandwiches

On old school wheat bread

All I wanted for dinner was a PB&J sandwich. But not just any PB&J sandwich. I wanted Skippy peanut butter (none of the 'natural' stuff we've got in the house) and some old school bread. Not the 12 grain whole wheat stuff we usually eat. But the Wonder bread type...

Much to Ryan's chagrin, this happens a lot lately. I run to the store and pick up one or two things that I really want to eat. And nothing else.

A few weeks ago, I came home with FOUR bags of Trader Joe's BBQ Chicken Teriyaki.

Anyway, I went and picked up the goods and just inhaled 3 sandwiches. And they were amazing. So I guess yes, I have "cravings." None of those pickle-and-ice-cream cravings...but all of a sudden, I just want a specific something.

The upside? At least I'm eating again.
