What's up?

Hello everyone! So, I'm sure some of you are wondering "what's up?" since I haven't posted in a while. Well, here's a look at what's new:

  • I got done my job at the convenience store, so now I'm full time homemaker
  • I bought some blue, multicolored yarn to start making 'Jackson' a little blanket
  • Getting caught up on laundry
  • Making a list in my head of the projects I want to get done before baby comes
  • Picking raspberries and freezing until I get enough to make a large batch of jam
  • Going through clothes and getting rid of what's ruined and what I'll never wear (even if it did fit right now lol)
  • Drinking tea in the evenings with my hubby
  • Planning a cleaning schedule, menus, laundry days, grocery/errand days, etc.
Lately I have been eating basically the same thing for breakfast and lunch, it is just soooo good!: 
    Breakfast- I usually have a bowl of cream of wheat with blueberries and cinnamon sprinkled on top(no sugar), a toasted English muffin, a yogurt cup and 1-2 cups of coffee.

Lunch- I have been chopping and cooking a skinless chicken breast in olive oil to go in my salad which is made with: Romaine lettuce, spinach leaves, red onion, tomato, green pepper, diced sharp cheddar and light or fat free Italian dressing. I mean AWESOME!!!! I love this salad! I usually have it with water, juice or iced tea.

Supper-  This generally varies from roast to fettuccine alfredo, some times tacos, home made pizza, soups, left overs, steak, and so on. Pretty much anything goes. 

Snacks- An apple with peanut butter, a "string cheese" with yogurt, strawberries, a banana, a cup of dry cheerios, toast with peanut butter, or home-popped popcorn.

Trying to eat better for me and baby, and help keep my energy level up. 

     I had to chuckle to myself the other day at work...
Customer: "How are you feeling?"
Me: "Pretty good, thanks."

Why is it that people always ask pregnant women how they are feeling? I say I feel good, and while I do for the most part, this picture can't help but pop into my head...

Yup. Some days I just feel like a little fat seal. Tying my shoes already cuts my wind off lol!
I hope to put more pictures up here when I get some more batteries (what ever happened to rechargeable cameras anyways???)  That's all for now folks, until next time! Thanks for stopping by!
