...of an 18 month old. Mom lets me eat anything just to get me to eat. Dad had an "ah-ha" moment the other day and is starting to catch on to my secret ploy - maybe if HE refuses to eat, mom will buy him doughnuts and toaster strudels and candy and....just to get him to eat.
In all reality, I'm always up for trying new recipes. Each week I usually have one or two new recipes to try, hoping to find ones to add to my "regulars." Rarely does a new recipe make it in to my line up of good recipes, not because they're not edible or good, but it's got to be pretty good in order for it to make it into my recipe file. The other night however, I made something completely and totally inedible. Holy cow. I ate one bite, and tried to choke down another. I had cereal for dinner. That's only happened one other time. Matthew, however, ate some for dinner, and I begged him to just throw it all away that night, but then he ate it for lunch the next two days. Is he not the kindest?
I hate Saturday morning where Bridget is sleeping in and I wake up at 6:15 and can't get back to sleep because I'm thinking about how I'm going to have a baby very soon now and my life is going to change forever and I think about all the things I need to do before she arrives and all the things I won't be able to do for several months after she arrives and how I wonder how long labor is going to last and how I hope I don't have to have another c-section and how Bridget is going to react to being with strangers while I'm in the hospital and what we can do to minimize her time with strangers while I'm there and how I wish the baby could just wait to arrive until grandma is able to come and how I'm so tired I wish I could just really get back to sleep and how I'm hungry so I may as well go eat a bowl of cereal and here I am and she's still sleeping...I'm going back to bed.
Happy Conference weekend everyone.

Julie, Its Margaret Proffitt. I found your blog through Jennifer Twyman's. Bridget is looking so grown-up! Anyways, sorry to be such a stalker but I couldn't help but comment. My second was a successful VBAC and I remember agonizing for months before delivery about every little detail and just hoping that it wouldn't end in a c-section. Everything went great. Shoot me an email if you ever want to talk VBAC stuff. In my last trimester, it was ALL I could think about. Hope all is well!
Awww, Juls...hang in there! This is definitely a stressful time...but it will all work out and you'll do just fine! Right now, try and get some sleep (cuz you probably won't get much of that for a while!). Wish I was there to help! I would LOVE to take care of that gorgeous little one of yours!!!
