This is what happens when Christopher takes leftovers to work:


He finds it in his car weeks later and determines that instead of doing something about it, he will just leave it in our parking garage, where I came across it this morning. So, so, so disgusting.

It WAS spaghetti, in case you were wondering.

It's a good thing he's so well behaved otherwise, cause this was pretty unacceptable.

UHOH

Today marked a pregnancy milestone. Christopher and I ran into someone he knows from school while we were out around Provo today. They talked for a few minutes while I just stood there and smiled, and then this acquaintance, in no relation whatsoever to the conversation, turns to me and says, "Are you expecting?"

Thankfully, I am, because I cannot imagine how he would have bailed himself out of that if I wasn't. I thought I couldn't wait to be obviously pregnant, because for the last few months I've just looked like I've packed on a few pounds. It's so awkward to run into old friends and be like, "Oh, by the way, I haven't just gained marriage fat, I'm actually almost six months pregnant!" I've gotten so sick of people saying I'm barely showing but this public acknowledgment that I do, indeed, have a pregnancy belly was a little frightening. But, alas, the time has come--- so bring on the belly!

A couple things:

First, remember these?
I really, really miss them, and I am very upset that my children will not have the luxury of sucking artificially flavored sugar water (these 100% juice ones were not around when I was drinking them) out of these creepy bottles with faces.

Second, upon finding out that I wasn't growing a little Christopher, I have consoled myself with some serious baby shopping. The good thing is that it's incredibly easy to find baby clothes on sale. In fact, I haven't paid full price yet! I found this sweet crocheted sweater for less than half price on Pottery Barn baby, along with a few other choice pieces. It arrived this morning and is everything I hoped for and more!


Thirdly, I have consumed more salad in the last five months than the rest of my life combined. This may sound like a healthy craving, but not when it generally comes in the form of this:



Sweet pork, beans, guacamole, chips, cheese, and ranch... what's not to love? In fact, I have a Cafe Rio date scheduled with my wonderful husband tonight. He actually used to like it but I think I've ruined it for him. Thankfully, in his general spirit of being amazing and helpful and supportive in everything, he lets me drag him along at least once a week!

Lastly, Chris and I spoke in church yesterday and did a fantastic job.... That is, if sacrament meeting was only fifteen minutes. Our talks were short and sweet, far from the fifteen minutes that was alotted each of us. Luckily, the other guy who was supposed to talk straight up canceled, so we didn't look all that bad :).
