week 10 (and 1/2)

A kumquat.  What a dumb comparison for a sizing on a fetus.  But whatever.  The kumquat has wreaked havoc this week on my exhaustion and nausea.  I probably didn't help a couple of times.  I am loving french fries right now.  and hamburgers.  I could eat that all the time.  But I was sad when I heard Girl Scout cookies were started to be ordered this weekend and it actually made my stomach turn.  I'll have to order some regardless in hopes that when I hit my third trimester, I'll crave cookies and such like I did with Beca.  I'm getting tired of not being able to do much.  I know Steve is to.  I've been told to suck it up.  I'm trying.

Beca used her money from Christmas (not much - she mostly got toys and puzzles and such).  But her purchase is very cute.  It's something she asked for and thankfully, it was really on sale at Target.  So now Starsong, a My Little Pony, sings often to us.  Its more the size of a big doll and she's a "baby", complete with bottle she sucks on, pacifier and feeding bowl with spoon.  She even says "Excuse Me" and "more please" - the pony, not Beca.  While cute, I sort of can't wait for the batteries to wear out.

I don't like the cold weather.  I am freezing all the time anyway and the cold weather makes it worse.  To make matters worse, most maternity items don't come in long sleeves - or if they do, the material is thin.  Hopefully, the cold won't last too long and it will be spring soon.
