Sugar addict

Oh hi baby A!  You are moving around so much right now, and as I'm working away, I realize that I have gotten used to feeling you move and I have come to expect it.  Before I was pregnant, I always pictured myself being creeped out by feeling a tiny human inside my body move around.  But, I am surprisingly calm about it - and I know that come June, I will miss feeling you kick and flutter and punch and whatever else it is that you do in there.

I have been eating a LOT of sugar lately.  I can blame it on being pregnant all I want, but it's really just because I'm a sugar addict and I'm also a grown-up who gets to buy whatever they want at the grocery store.  Girl scout cookies...Valentines Day truffles...stuffed twizzlers (oh yes they do exist!)...grocery store donuts... So, little guy, I'm really going to try to not do that as much anymore...but I do hope that I am somehow influencing you to like sweets, because your dad has no interest in sweets (except for a few ice cream treats, thank goodness).

I've also been eating a lot of grapefruit, mainly because I love it, but I also hope that you will be born with a taste for it and we can make grapefruit popsicles in the summertime to eat in the hot sun in the backyard.

I am getting extremely anxious to meet you.  I imagine that anxious feeling will only grow as we get closer to May. I just keep picturing what life with you will be like, and I know it won't all be snuggles and naps, but I just can't wait to see your little face.  I saw a baby with a really big forehead (fivehead) that other day.  I wonder if you will have a five-head too?

I hope you like the color blue...your room is coming together nicely =)

Keep growing.  Say hello to my internal organs!
