All in all I don't really think I've had too many cravings. I haven't really had something that I have to have so bad! I definitely do crave certain things but it's not that incredibly urgent thing I've so often heard described. The things I have craved though are really no good-- quite unhealthy.
- Hershey's bars
- Salt & Vinegar potato chips
- Clementines (this one's a good one though!)
And I just found this picture and right now I want it soooo bad! So just disregard my entire post. Thank you.

fajita night
I love that my husband likes to cook! He is really good at making good food. That sentence really doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but it does in my head. There are certain foods that he makes so awesome-- like baking pretty much anything, and things like fajitas. So the other night when we were deciding what to do for dinner and I suggested fajitas I was so pumped when he took it over and made it all. I really do like to cook but lately have had no desire for it. Normally, I will do a weekly menu to plan out our meals but this weekend I hadn't planned anything so it was a bit of clean slate to work with. We accounted for what ingredients we had and went to the store to get what we needed. We spent just over $11 at the store and used probably $3 worth of ingredients at home. So for $14 we had a meal that would easily feed 4 but probably more like 6. And it was so healthy and good!
The main thing that we needed at the store was fresh veggies! We picked up a green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and sweet onion.
Cooked them in olive oil and then added just a bit of fajita seasoning to them and the meat.
Since I didn't do the cooking, I really have no more steps in the process. All I can say is it was delicious and please excuse my pathetic looking pictures.
We did cilantro lime rice-- one of my favorites!!! And yes, that is sour cream oozing out the side. Oozing is a really, really gross word to use when talking about food in general but especially sour cream. Sorry.

it's a ...
BOY!!!
We are more than thrilled and are so truly blessed to have a very healthy baby growing! Yesterday we had our mid-way anatomical ultrasound and saw all of the wonderful, working parts of our baby. We also saw that we have a stubborn one who doesn't like to cooperate already (wonder who he gets that from... :) ) We found out that we are having a boy! We are so very excited! Tommy was excited to get a picture of him sucking his thumb-- we have such a cute baby :)

snow snow snow
the beginning of snow at our house! they say 1-4 inches. i'm hoping to be surprised! :) I LOVE snow! Did I see a lot of last year? Yes. But yet I want MORE! I don't want what we had last year; I'll take a more mellow amount. I want a foot, and I want it when my husband is here! Not when he's away like he was last year. I know I'm very picky and I know that beggars can't be choosers, but I'm hopeful.
So here's to hoping for a foot of snow when I wake up tomorrow!!!

you walk like a duck
How am I supposed to respond to that? So far during my pregnancy, I have heard some ridiculous comments and this goes towards the top of the list. Also at the top "you don't have a pregnant belly, you have a beer belly". Why would you ever say that to anyone??? Pregnant or not?! And that came from one of the cardiologists I work with. I am blown away by the things people say!
This is how today played out:
I was walking down the hall at the hospital going to see my patients and someone walked up behind me and said "wow, you're getting bigger."
me: "yes, I am."
guy: "you're walking different now."
me: "yes, I am."
guy: "you walk like a duck."
me: speechless.

happy sunday
Do you ever really need a weekend? This was one of those times for me. I really just needed some time. Time to get caught up on things, time to spend with the hubs, time to work on my house, time to plan for baby, and time to organize everything in my life (like that could actually happen). But I had to work yesterday, so I felt like I had no time. Rather than pitying myself that I have to go back to work tomorrow, I realized this morning that I must choose to enjoy today. So to you and me, happy sunday! I hope today is long and filled with productivity and rest for you!
