I’ve been pretty bummed out about not running the last few weeks but have so many other things that I am loving at 23 weeks pregnant:
- Cold fruit – specifically watermelon, red grapes and oranges
- Belly kicks, punches, rolls and hiccups – this baby is getting active 🙂
- Ice cold water – can’t get enough
- Lilly’s trying lots of new food: pesto, pad thai, broccoli trees, snow trees (cauliflower)
- Cool temperatures in the morning (not so much later in the day/evening, humidity is terrible when you’re pregnant)
- Evening walks by myself
- Potty Training (I haven’t washed cloth diapers in over 2 weeks)
- Lilly loves the potty AND big toilet
- Raisin Bran and skim milk – seriously, I can’t get enough
- It’s only taking Lilly 1 hour to go to bed (bath, books, cuddle, crying, cuddle, crying, asleep)
- Prenatal Yoga at home
- Fit Pregnancy Magazines (that I bought when pregnant with Lilly)
- Fit Mom DVD Workout
- Taking two weeks vacation – glorious idea
- Farmer’s Markets
- Started reading a book that is not work, baby or pregnancy related: Where We Belong – Emily Giffin. I even managed to buy it 40% off plus tax free – whoop whoop!
- Vegan Pesto – might be addicted
- Slight Olympic hangover but looking forward to watching the Paralympics August 29th

Congrats on your pregnancy:) I’m a little late congratulating you:/ That’s super exciting!
Thanks Heidi. We’re pretty excited!
Snow trees – ha ha! I love that 🙂
I too was “blessed” with a summer pregnancy, and I lived on frozen drinks – smoothies, slushies, milkshakes…anything cold I could drink through a straw! The heat was almost unbearable, I hated every moment of August 🙂
“Snow trees” was coined by my husband last week. We had a salad with cauliflower and we told her what it was called, she wasn’t interested in trying them until Sai said they are “snow trees”. Now she LOVES them! ha!
Normally, I love the heat but the humidity this summer has just been extreme in NS, eh? Sure looking forward to the fall weather.
I didn’t crave anything while pregnant with all 3 of my girls, but now, just with the other two, while breast feeding I can’t stop thinking of food and what to eat next haha!
