Ok, so it has been a long time & I've severely neglected my blog. Oh well. I've got no excuses, I've just been lazy I guess. (That's not entirely true, my big rig blog has been updated a couple of times... does that mean that I value big rigs more than anything else that goes on in my life?? Hm... time re-evaluate my values! hehe)
Well, the pregnancy is going really well. I'm feeling good, I have very few side effects. My only very small complaint is that my joints are hurting, especially my fingers. But compared to what some women go through while they are pregnant, I'm not complaining. My baby bump isn't even that big yet, but now it's growing.... People are commenting now that they can see the belly ... and to those of you on Facebook who want pictures, judging from how much I've eaten today, I'm guessing that there will soon be something to photograph! So be patient my friends, be patient .... :-) We're working on the baby bump ;-)
Jellybean has already been to 2 concerts! Bon Jovi and A-HA! It'll be a culturally diverse baby I think ... however I've heard that the baby starts reacting to external sounds in month 7. So ... according to that theory .... guess who the baby's REAL first concert will be!! BRET MICHAELS!! That is right!! The first concert where the baby will actually experience what's going on, will be BRET! How's that for coincidence! August 2nd, Bret will be performing his only LA show this year and me & jellybean will be there! :) I can't wait.
Other than that, I'm already pondering on what songs to put on my iPod that I should be playing for the baby while still in the womb ... I better research and see what kind of effect rock'n roll will have on the baby's state of mind...lol.
I'm also picking up my guitar again... it has been neglected almost as severely as this blog and my fingers are paying the price. I mainly like plucking on Kris Kristofferson songs, I hope jellybean enjoys it :) I figure some music can never hurt... Although I'm no American Idol, I do have an OK voice so it's not too much torture for him/her to have to listen to me :)
I have some ultra sound photos, they are in the process of being scanned, so I'll be able to post those soon. It's an interesting development and I can safely say that Jellybean is no longer a jellybean .... :-) Nevertheless.... looks like that nickname is going to stick ;-)
Until next time ........ (and I promise it won't be that long.....)
Stay safe everyone!
Oh I almost forgot...
Cravings... Nothing weird! I've been craving a lot of fruit. Watermelon & peaches. Cherries. Garden salads with ranch. Have barely touched chocolate since I got pregnant and no frozen yogurt. Ice cream now and then is good. I'd say foods I crave the most are costco hot dogs & pizza ... and steak. I get beef bowls now instead of chicken bowls when I go to these teriyaki places. So beef is definitely on the menu!
And let's not forget the milk .... there was a time where I had to pour out a gallon because it was past its due date .... these days I drink a gallon in less than a week. It'll be a strong boned one :)
