week 28: dirt and stuff

There is something strange about Pregnancy... You get these weird cravings! Who really knows where they come from. But I know I crave weird things because I am just weird... That is my theory anyways! Let me tell you a little about this.
Whenever I walk across our impound lot and feel the mud squishing under my shoes, I want to eat it... Whenever I walk across a sandy beach and feel the sand under my feet, I want to eat it... Whenever I wash my hands with the pumice soap here at the office, I want to eat it! I have been saying NO to these weird cravings, but this weekend, I couldn't go any LONGER! so I sat down on the rocky beach in Cambria, CA and crushed rocks so I could taste their powder and chew the grit! WOW! What is wrong with ME? I feel like I am 5 years old again... This really is NOT right. My sister Elizabeth did give me two charcoal tablets the other day and those tasted SOOOOOO GOOD! Another thing that kinda helps with the craving at my tums that I take for this cursed heart burn... Yummy chalk! At least I am not craving something like plastic or carpet... I don't know what I would do about those ones! I guess that till this baby is out of my body or till this craving goes away, I am going to be eating more charcoal and tums!

week 25: Waight Gain!

Well, I went to my doctors appointment last week sometime and was VERY frustraited to find that I have gained an "excessive" amount of weight! I now weigh more then my husband by about 20 pounds! How does this happen! It was funny because everything my midwife brought up to me that might be causing me to gain wait such as; red meat, fried food, cheese, sugar, and nuts I don't eat! UGH! I guess it must just all be baby... NO please NO! LOL I think I have gained so much weight because I have not been exercising very often... I feel good though! and I think I still look good... (I hope)

Well, I am not 26 complete weeks pregnant here is my photo
