Thankfully I'm starting to feel a little better. A little more energy. A little less nausea. A few more foods are starting to sound good. It's nice :) Although feeling better and Halloween coinciding wasn't that great...chocolate anyone? :P Really not many sweets sound appealing yet. But for some reason chocolate is ok :) You know it's bad when I haven't eaten ice cream in about a month. And still have no desire.
Last week was long, but we had some fun and got some stuff accomplished. I had my first OB appt. and heard a healthy heartbeat! So thankful for that. And so happy to moving into the 2nd trimester. Not too much work in the kitchen yet. Although I did manage to feed my sourdough and my kefir grains. We'll see if my kefir grains are dead or not.
A fairly busy week this week. Although our plans will have to be tentative depending on how Rebecca is feeling. She came down with a cold on Friday. She's pretty stuffy and has had a couple rough nights. Plus she wouldn't nap yesterday. So we'll see. Praying that Justin and I don't catch it. So far so good. Today is church...for Justin. Rebecca and I will be staying home. Monday is grocery day. Tuesday is election day. Get out and vote! Justin also has class. Wednesday is Kindermusik, and I have a dentist appt. Rebecca is going to come in with me for the first few minutes to check things out (nice that our hygienist is a friend :), then Justin will take her home. Won't be long before she'll have to go in for her first appt. Thursday evening Justin has a thing at church for the seniors. Friday is MOPS. My table is bringing breakfast. No plans yet for Saturday. Maybe we'll do some more mini van shopping (did a little more yesterday).
In the kitchen, I'm hoping to start doing a little more this week. I need to do some baking for MOPS. Aside from that I'd like to make a new batch of sourdough enlish muffins. And if time allows maybe make a new batch of grain free granola and/or some other breakfast foods to start restocking the freezer. I also have to do some veggie work. Justin picked our first stalk of brussels sprouts. It's HUGE. I think it will take me an hour just to cut all the sprouts off. And there are several other stalks still in the garden.
Hopefully this week I'll be able to start normal breakfasts again. But for now I'll stick with the breakfast options. Maybe by next week I'll have them planned out again...when I'm sure I can wait for Justin for breakfast without getting too nauseaous :) Here's what's on the menu this week.
