So it has been a couple weeks since I wrote and a lot has changed. I have definitely turned the second trimester corner and I'm starting to feel pretty darn good. No more morning sickness and a bit of a boost in energy. I like food again so that's fun but I have to remind myself that I can't just eat everything in sight or the doctor will yell at me for getting too fat. Here are the things I crave (in no particular order):

- banana milkshakes from Paul Bunyan
- beef jerky
- chocolate milk (and sometimes plain milk too)
- watermelon
- things with barbeque sauce
- coconut shrimp from Outback
- iced tea

Actually I did think of a couple teeny-tiny things to complain about but they are really little. One is that it's starting to get harder to find a comfortable sleeping position and the other is that my bellybutton aches from being stretched out in all directions. But that's it and so I think overall I am kind of starting to get into this experience and am ready for it to be really fun. Today I bought a book on natural childbirth and I'm going to read and find out if it seems like it might be worth it or if I'd rather just have the drugs. That's all for now, we'll probably be posting another picture soon since it's been over a month.
