Must have one

I found this on ebay. I totally need it for the baby! I'm going to be on the lookout the rest of the summer when I go rummaging for this truck. :) Or maybe I'll just break down and order it from ebay....

Maternity session

I had so great friends agree to take me around town this week and snap a few pictures of my giant belly. I was expecting them to take me to the park and snap a few and that would be all. Well little did I know my friends were taking this task SERIOUSLY. Evidently they researched maternity pictures so they knew what to do! As I was making us a big pitcher of ice water to take with us (It's VERY hot in Kentucky this time of year) I could hear them in the baby's room. They were raiding his room for props! Now the pressure was on. These girls were taking my simple little photo session into serious hard core business!

Off to the park we went. As expected it was HOT!! So we did some pictures and then one of them had the brilliant idea I stick my feet in the fountain! AMAZING! I could have stayed in the fountain the rest of the time. After the fountain we headed to a train depot. I had to nix the idea of me walking on the actual track. One look at the gravel leading up to the track and thinking about my bare feet on the track I had to say 'I don't think so.' I don't question the pictures would have been cute. Just no one wants to see a giant pregnant girl running from a train.

After that session we HAD to stop for lunch. Even though it was only 10:45 a.m. these girls was with an 8 month pregnant girl. Lunch was inevitable. To McDonald's we went. Once I was recharged we headed to our state park. It was HOT and HUMID! But we got some great pictures. And THEN I discovered the AIR CONDITIONED bathroom! Who would have thought a state park would have a public air conditioned bathroom!? They almost had to send a search party for me. I was in Heaven.

Food: It's all I think about

This is what I came home from work to last night. ICE CREAM. I just stuck my spoon right in and got to work. Then I spied the pancakes....then I found bologna and cheese. Sometimes my memories of heartburn and indigestion get thrown to the side and the want for food out weighs the desire to sleep soundly.

I seriously think about food constantly. Seriously. It's a MAJOR part of my day. My favorite things these days : Eating at Los Bravos (fav. Mexican restaurant), Wendy's baked potatoes and cheeseburgers, Happy Meals, Sonic milkshakes, donuts and Coca Cola. I would have a little of all that in one day and be a happy camper.

Even when I've just eaten lunch, I'm already starting to think about 'That may not be enough, I better take a snack.' I've called Mark from work and said 'You MUST bring me food RIGHT now.'

The only drawback I've found to this constantly thinking of food business is it leads to indigestion. I HATE indigestion. HATE IT. EVERYTHING causes it. So some nights I just go with it. My need to eat is overshadowed by my fear of the dreaded indigestion.

The only think that I feel guilty about is that all I want is stuff that's bad for me and nothing that's good. And that's why I've gained 27-ish pounds already :) Oh well I'll worry about it come October and by then it will be sweater season :)

Here's a picture to show you what all those donuts are doing to me.

More Little Tikes!

Remember me blogging about these guys?? :) Well look at what I found today at a sale for 25 cents to go with my collection.......

The truck!!!! I'm so excited. I LOVE it. I just imagine taking our baby to the park next summer and have him sitting on a blanket playing with his toys. I was really excited when I spotted it today and even more excited when they told my friend it was only a quarter. I can't wait to clean it up and get it on his shelf.
