This pregnancy is funny. I feel great, but there are some definite cravings that I've been having... and I don't really think that any of them are that good for me. During the beginning of 2nd Tri I was really craving cauliflower (hence the huge one that I purchased at the farmers market, and then proceeded to eat single handedly...) But now...
RICE KRISPIE TREATS! I can't get enough of them. I don't know what's wrong with me. I think that I've made a 9 x 13 pan each week, and it's gone within a matter of days... and the only reason why I don't make more than one a week is because I only buy one bag of marshmallows during our grocery trip to try and save myself from the disaster that would be... I think that's my way of self control? haha... right.
Another thing that I've been really wanting to try are different mixed drinks... I know, it sounds terrible. Don't worry, I'm not giving into those temptations (like the rice krispie treats) but I want to try all sorts of things! I don't know what's wrong with me! I remember with Dude I really want margaritas... but I think it was just the salt, so Gaetan appeased me by getting the mix (sans alcohol) and rimming glasses with a bunch of salt haha. So to curb these cravings he's been getting fancy different pops and I've been drinking them out of wine and martini glasses... haha. Dorky, I know, but I don't know what else to do! My big craving is a bloody mary... but I think it's just all the pickles and olives that garnish it... and that, I cant definitely indulge in.
Another craving... crunchies (as my good friend Ashley calls them) and seafood. Crunchies are anything chip like that are munch-able. :) And the craving seafood? I don't know about that one... I thought maybe it was because we were watching Top Chef Canada and they were cooking a lot with lobster and crab and stuff, but I feel like I could eat my weight in it...
As with the other pregnancies this baby starts to get real lively around the time the other ones go to bed. They're still nice little gurgles and pokes, but I can definitely feel them getting stronger. The other day Lucy was pretty upset from her nap and so I was holding her and baby #3 didn't like it at all and kicked HER! It was kinda funny, and I don't think that she even noticed, but it does give a glimpse into this ones personality already...
We have also started reading the Narnia Series again. Just like the other ones we started around the time that they started to kick, and then we usually finish around the time they're born. :)
Our ultrasound is less than two weeks away! And I am PUMPED to find out if it's a little Norah or Jude. Don't worry, I will let you know as soon as I can. :)
JVG
