One of my baby room projects is to make cushions for the rocking chair I bought. Anticipating that we may be spending some long hours sitting in it, I picked up some pretty thick 3″ foam to make the bottom cushion. When I tested it out in the chair, [...]

Mmmmmmmuffins!

Yesterday I made blueberry muffins in case I woke up super early craving baked goods again. The thought was that maybe if I curbed the craving I would be able to go back to sleep. Luckily, I slept really well (except for the 4am potty break). We’ll see how tonight goes. I still have some [...]

This week’s trend?

Waking up at 5:30am and not being able to go back to sleep. Lately I’ve been waking up a couple of times a night, but fall right back to sleep…but twice now I’ve been wide awake, tired, and wishing I was sleeping at 5:30. And both times I’ve been craving pastries from bakeries that aren’t [...]

At about 6:00am in my sleepless state after a trip to the bathroom I had a sudden craving for a chausson aux pommes. (This is the second time in my pregnancy that I’ve had that craving.) For those of you who aren’t familiar, it’s a pastry filled with tart yummy applesauce.  I tried to go [...]

We had a midwife appointment today. It was with one of the midwives that I hadn’t met yet. Apparently she felt I’m not gaining enough weight (even though everyone else has said my weight gain is on track). She was very [...]

36 weeks!

We’ve now hit 36 weeks! Woah! Next week the baby is considered full term. I’m getting my hair cut tomorrow for the first time since before Christmas, so I’ll take this week’s photo after my hair cut!
I’ve been feeling pretty good – headaches aren’t as bad, which is nice. Energy level is so-so, but I [...]
