Salad

I think I figured it out. I like salads! And salads without meat! Weird huh? But it's true. I like going to Souper Salad or Sweet Tomato b/c it's a buffet so I can sample what I like and what I don't like AND it's salad! My stomach seems to always agree with salad. Of course with specific things. Usually just lettuce, spinach, tomatos, onions, sunflower seeds, croutons and fat free italian. mmm! mm! Oh and do I LOVE tomatos! Makes me smile when I eat them. BUT they have to be fresh. For some reason tomato sauce, ugh. No wonder I could never eat my spaghetti or lasagana. Junior was like, "oh great. my kid is going to be a vegetarian." hahaha... I doubt it, I still eat meat b/c I need to but I could go without it. very weird. But whatever. At least now I know for sure what food will always be cool with me.

So body changes. Well... I think I'm losing my ass. It really is sad b/c I didn't have much to begin with and now... well geez. I mean the girls and my belly are growing but my back end seems to be disappearing. Doesn't that suck? hopefully that will be temporary or I will have to do some crazy lunges after the baby comes.

WHICH, oh my. I'm slightly nervous. Yesterday I went with my friend Sharleen to David's Bridal. She is getting married July 12 next year and earlier this year (around August) we (the bridesmaids) got our dresses. WELL... then shortly after I find out I'm pregnant and I already have the dress! So we go to David's Bridal to see if we can exchange the dress size since by that time I will have already had the baby, but it will still be fairly soon afterwards. the sales lady asks what size I want. Shoot! I don't know! I have no clue what my size will be at that time. So I trust her judgement. Hoping that she's dealt with situations like this before and kind of knows what women like me need to do in these situations. So I tell her I'm due May 21 and the wedding is July 12. She asks how the dress fits me now and I tell her perfect. Like I don't need any alterations to it... right now anyway. So she says she is going to order me one size bigger and that if I need to I can alter it down. Now... I'm a little nervous. Does she really think I will be that close to my prepregnancy size by that time? I mean I don't know, I have no clue. She's looking me up and down and says that to get me two sizes bigger may be way too big. I guess. All I know is I will REALLY have to watch my weight gain during this pregnancy and do my best to try and work it off afterward. But that should be good motivation for me to work towards my prepregnancy weight.

This past weekend I bought my first set of maternity clothes. Although, I probably don't really need maternity clothes yet, but I got this velour suit that I can actually wear now and can see that it will grow with me. So that's cool. I tried on maternity jeans... uh yeah. not even CLOSE to that point yet. I just looked like a fool in those things.

ONE MORE WEEK UNTIL MY NEXT APPOINTMENT!!! I hope we're lucky and Bagel cooperates and we get to find out the sex! how sucky would that be if she didn't do an ultrasound! I shouldn't get my hopes up but too late. I already did!
