I need shoes. Anyone want to help me find some inexpensive but really cute flats? (Inexpensive means less than $20). I need close toed brown and black-ish…that’s 2 pair. I went shopping a while back to get some “transition” wear…you know, not maternity sizes - but bigger than what I was wearing kind of things (that will stretch). Yep, those sorts. You help me find the shoes and then I’ll show you what I got, deal?
Oh, and I have some really important news for you. I had a craving. *Gasp* (Yes, that was the news.) Cravings at this point excite me - it means I actually WANT to eat (instead of doing it because I just must. It means I’m ENJOYING food again). The sad news is I haven’t touched a brownie bite (by Tollhouse, my weakness) since I got pregnant. We needed a break anyhow, according to the extra jiggle in my thighs (why can’t it collect in my boobs instead of my butt?). Anyhow, are you ready for my craving?
Wait for it….
Take out (because I may have to eat it laying down) from Cracker Barrel:
Chicken and dumplings, baby carrots, and a roll.
I’m thinking I may need a job to afford these cravings. Too bad, so sad. Hopefully I can trick myself into THINKING I’m eating Cracker Barrel as I shovel Campbell’s chicken noodle soup (which tastes nothing alike) into my gullet.
Hey, do any of you know how to hypnotize?

My first craving with Isobel was a Big Xtra from McDonals. I must have eaten one a day for most of the last two trimesters. With former baby #2, it was root beer.

Woohoo for cravings! So glad to hear your appetite is coming around.
I remember how strong those food craving were. I hate avocado, but while pregnant, I HAD to have guacamole….on everything.

We had three kids - different cravings for each of them and it’s funny how much what was craved told us about who they would be.
Chaos, Panic and Disorder. Our three sons - youngest to oldest.
Chaos’s craving was anything spicy. Especially Orange Chicken from Panda Express.
Panic’s craving was Salad - a testiment to how careful he is about everything.
Disorder? Pizza. Enough said.

Did you try the Gap? I seem to recall some cute flats last time I was there.
I loved when the morning sickness went away and I could get down to the serious eating! Your morning sickness sounds lousy, I feel bad for you.

I lurve me some Crack breakfast. The green beans there are awesome. Good luck on the shoe shopping. Don’t forget Old Navy.

I don’t remember my food cravings specifically, except I craved FOOD!
Oh,I discovered pickles & potato chips when I was preggo with Tristan. I still love that combo.
Shut up about jiggly thighs. You are so tiny, there’s NO way!
