18+

Its easier to blog when a.) you have a research paper to write and b.) I'm talking about being pregnant. So, life these days are getting a bit more tired. I have been making more of an effort to eat more frequently and healthy. My biggest cravings are smoothies, although I can't just gulp them down all the time because there is a lot of sugar in there! 18 weeks has me feeling like I have a beer belly. I know its not, but I can't help to think that other people are thinking, "rough, that girls getting chunky" haha. oh well. Along with eating better I need to exercise more...today I did a 15 min bike ride and a walk on the treadmill, plus some stretching and back strengthening exercises. I want to swim again, but I need to get a swim cap and a suit that fits first. I don't want my hair to get even drier than it is in this dang climate and my suit is poppin' in all the wrong places! So thats, that. I am behind on my daily Bible readings, but slowly catching up. I just read about Good Friday in Mark. Now I have to go to work...but happy friday everyone!

ps:
here is my baby 'to do' : start a pregnancy memory book, sew my squares together on the quilt I am making for him/her, plan out felt food patterns for the food "stuffed animals" I want to make... I have been saving my tip money for the birthing center rather than having the birth in the hospital, but it sure is tempting to maybe use it for a sewing machine! :( Someday....haha for now I make due with what I have and I am so grateful for all that it is. Praise the Lord in the good and the bad, my joy is found in Him alone!
