The Cravings Begin

It's official. I now have pregnancy cravings. I'm just very thankful that my cravings are not obscene and are very easy to come across. I crave blueberries, which I have never cared for much and anything cake like. It's not even the frosting or cake I want but the texture of the cake. I find almost anything will hit the spot when one of those cravings comes along. I can eat cake, cupcakes, muffins and it all works. I am enjoying them so much - so much so in fact that I bought a cake last night to enjoy tonight and I bought blueberry muffins. The muffins I made for breakfast this morning. I thought it would be unkind to make the muffins as DJ was leaving for work so I woke up at 4:15 (my normal time to wake up i s 5:30) and started making the muffins so he could enjoy some on his way to work.

Our little baby is moving a lot! Last night DJ and I were watching the Rockies game in bed and he was able to see her kicking through my shirt. I think he really enjoyed that. Lately I am not experiencing only kicking but it feels like she has learned how to wiggle her toes. It makes me laugh because it tickles and I'm so over joyed to feel her moving.

We are planning on having the baby shower August 23rd. This was finally decided yesterday after picking several dates . DJ and I are going to go register Saturday morning and I can't wait. We're so excited!

Sounds like all is well! Except the getting up at 4:15...don't you know that you need to sleep as much as you can now because that will soon come to a screeching halt?!
