Samuel Craig's Life Blog

Well, week 14 has come and gone. We are still waiting for that wonderful 2nd trimester and the promise of a 3 month vacation from nasty symptoms. Until then, Moon is still suffering a bit. She's trying not to complain, but the poor girl has been fatigued, had a running nose, sore throat, and gagging for that last 2 months. I think she's about to give up :)

We are both beginning to think that the break will never come. You hear horror stories about women with morning sickness for nine months....let's hope that we move beyond that.

I'm not losing much sleep, but I am spending a lot of time planning out meals. I'm the nutrition specialist in our house (ironic, isn't it?). If there is one think I know, it is fattening people up :) But seriously, though we should be thinking about balanced diets all the time, it isn't until something like this that you re-evaluate your eating patterns. Unfortunately, I think that I'm gaining more than Moon is. We'll have to re-re-evaluate.

In the last week I have found out that 3 more of my childhod friends are expecting as well. I won't name them all now because I don't want to "out" them if it is not common knowledge. I think that this is such a trip. There must have been something about this summer that agreed with the kids from Northbrook.
