Waking Early

Yum yum yum. It’s so great knowing exactly what you want to eat!

My mom used to finish people’s left overs, even soggy cereal. Really! I find myself doing the same thing now. I used to stick Deeder’s unfinished yogurt in the refrigerator, or cheese stick, or dinner of whatever sort. Who wants to eat something with sweet little baby bits of backwash? I DO! You don’t finish it, I will. Unfortunately this isn’t the case with meats. I can eat meat in a meal but never touch the left over scraps, it makes me want to throw up! Well, OK, I take that back partially. I eat cold pizza or a left over grinder. Just not meatloaf, casserole or a burger.

Diederick never lets me eat if he’s not being fed too. Perhaps he’ll put on extra weight during this pregnancy too Yesterday he helped me eat a salad. He’d get bites of the cottage cheese and eat off the croutons while I ate the tomatoes and lettuce and salad dressing. When he’d accidentally pick something out that he didn’t want he’d put it in my mouth, pretty cute!

Today he’s not feeling well. He’s hot to the touch but doesn’t have a temperature, his skin is also spotty looking. He’s under the impression that he absolutely must be held ALL the time, if he isn’t the whole world will crumble apart. Right now he’s napping. I’m not entirely worried because he is eating very well. If he does develop a fever and keeps the spots I’ll call his pediatrician. He had four shots yesterday, I know sometimes that makes children feel ill.

Off for now. Tomorrow morning is my 10Week visit with Rainy, one of the midwives at the OB/GYN.
