Week 16: May 25 - 31 (Turnip)

The most striking thing about this week was the lack of sweets in my life. No, no, not related to Yoel. He, Simi, my friends, family all make my life very sweet. I'm referring to cold, hard, sugar. The challenge lies in going to dinner parties. We have been invited to 4 so far in the last few weeks. Dinner parties are very tricky when you're pregnant. You sort of don't know what you'll be in the mood for until the very moment. The likelihood of the host serving you what you want at that very moment is slim to none. I remember getting through the dinners thinking, "Well there is always dessert." 3 out of the 4 dinners didn't have dessert at the end! What are people thinking? I'm all about healthy eating, but for once, it's all I want. I'm having a baby girl (95% sure) and little girls crave sweet things. Yoel thinks its the funniest thing. I'm having to supplement with goodies on my own, and it's just not the same as cakes, pies, other delicacies. I also noticed that i'm just going to have to eat before I go to dinners because many times, dinner isn't served till 4 hours after you arrive. As a lady with something growing in me, I can't wait that long! The other thing about this week was just enjoying it with my husband. We got to take a few adventures and it was a great preview of what life will be like down the road when we're concerned with bed times, R&R, and not as much with what club is the most hopping. I loved it and can't wait for the adventures of the future :)

*Disclaimer: All of my dinner hosts were incredible and the food they served was amazing. Blame the hormones and taste buds for making it sound like anything else!
