raisins

Dinner:

We're so lucky that she likes fruits and veggies. She also likes to share whatever I'm eating like yogurt, bread, or anything else she finds appealing.

We've been passing around a virus of some sort for the past week, so no photos to post, but I'll work on that for next week.

Maybe This Baby Garrett Doesn't Like Crab Cakes

I had a horrible case of nausea last night. I did have some "morning sickness" in the afternoon. Then, we took a candidate out to dinner at the Boone Tavern where I reluctantly ordered the crab cake, for lack of something better on the menu. (They have a great menu, but nothing sounded appealing at the time.) Then the nausea got much worse. I hovered the commode through the night/morning at 11:30pm, 1:00am, 1:30am, 2:00am, 2:30am, 3:00am, then 4:00am. I was miserable. I stayed in bed until 7:30am, but needed to get up and eat something. Andrew made some oatmeal for me (he is home on spring break) which was really nice. At 8:00am I finally had enough energy to stand up and take a shower. At work now I'm feeling much better, but I'm wondering about the crab cake. Needless to say, I won't be testing this theory again. Claire didn't like Indian food, maybe this Baby Garrett doesn't like crab cakes.

8 Weeks

I'm feeling pretty good this week. Morning sickness is creeping back in the evenings and for a good part of yesterday, but that may be to the amount of sweets I've been eating to prepare myself for lent which begins on Wednesday. If the morning sickness continues next week, I'll attribute it to Baby Garrett. Other than that, I'm feeling good.
