Thursday Craving

We had an appointment yesterday! Heartbeat 160 and 14 weeks pregnant. Per thebump.com, baby is the size of a lemon!  During the appointment I told my doctor I have been craving fruit, lots and lots of fruit. I told her it was better than Oreos! She laughed and asked if we wanted to know what Oreo filling was made out of... told us we might not eat them again if we knew... sure! Why not?! Can't be that bad right? Wrong. Turns out Oreo filling is made out of powdered sugar and lard. Ick! Pretty sure I'll stick with fruit.

Baby Lemony Snickett

I have been craving watermelon but have been unable to find a decent one. Of course that is because we live in norhtern Minnesota and it is the beginning of May. We brought home a honeydew last night but I didn't cut it up. I was craving salad, so I made a lettuce, avacado, tomato salad with a bit of Ranch... so good!  This morning for my 'first little meal' I'm having an orange, blackberries, chocolate pudding, carrots and water. 

Addition: Friday 'first little meal' consists of 2 cups of 'wagon wheel' carrots, Junior Mints, chocolate pudding, and an orange. I'm getting the feeling baby doesn't want me to eat real food as my stomach turns when I sit down to eat a sandwich or dinner-type food.



Baby Names

As the weeks have gone by the baby has been many different sizes. And we have been naming him/her for each week! Some of them are pretty obvious, and not very creative but its been fun 'naming' the baby every Tuesday with Jeremy and Cole when I get the email from The Bump letting me know the size.

Week 8: Raspberry - Raspbaby (Cole's pick)
Week 9: Green Olive - Oliver (my favorite)
Week 10: Prune - Pruney
Week 11: Lime - Limey
Week 12: Plum - Plum
Week 13: Peach - Princess Peach (from the Mario videogames)
Week 14: Lemon - Lemony Snickett (Bebe Limon - per my sister)
