Big news that I wanted to share ahead of actually getting a full weekly recap up: we’re having a little girl! The ultrasound tech was right! We are so excited! If she’s anything like me, I’m definitely in for it. Hopefully she’ll forgive me for posting her lady parts on the internet. We also got some of the best pictures of her we have to date and I’ll share more of those next week (thinking of combining weeks 20-21).
I think I finally got my first craving! The other day after my workout, Neil walked over to me and I said, “I want nothing more than a tuna sandwich on sourdough.” I had several more hours before my shift was over at the gym, however he left to take care of a few errands. When I arrived home, there was homemade chicken noodle soup, and a tuna sandwich on sourdough waiting for me. Weird craving, super husband.
