14 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII






My mom made a feast for JK before she left for Cairo. Some of the wonderful things we had were---fresh pepper pancakes, ribs in hot sauce, watercress salad, potato mandoline, peppers steamed and many many other tasty treats.

We had a feast.

On a non-food note, I am feeling exponentially better as I'm not through my first trimester and I'm back to eating the good stuff---yogurt, veges, fruit, fish and other superfoods. I was getting worried that my McD's kick would never ever end. Now I can't even stomach the thought of fastfood so, it must be the good time. I have gained about 7 lbs total which I understand is fairly normal. I'm feeling great. I have a lot more energy and do not feel sick at all. I got a few pair of maternity pants---so far: Liz Lange-Target capri jeans seem to be doing the trick. They are comfy, they do not fall down and look sporty for under $20. The lucky jeans are camoflauge in that they do not show the elastic band. They are comfortable but need to be hemmed. Finally, the Gap Jeans are snug and press against my bladder so, I think these are the worst.

I'll get pictures up later.

In the last sonogram you can clearly see little Leon's head, hand, butt and foot (I think). In the beginning of November we'll go to Arlington Hospital Center for the full-measurements and find out whether it's a he or a she.
