Pregnancy Update--25 weeks

Well, the first trimester was all about craving for egg mc muffins, saltines, and ramens noodles (still known as mommy noodles and mommy crackers in our house). This second trimester includes cravings for fried rice, nacho cheese, and eggnog. It's a miracle I've only gained 8 pounds with those kinds of cravings! Things are going well, I've still got a lingering cough (going on 2 months now), my hips are starting to hurt at night, heart burn is revving up at night, back aches after vacuuming, but nothing is too terrible yet. Vivid weird dreams and nightmares are in full swing, unfortunately. I finally started exercising again and that helps how I'm feeling a lot I think. By the end of the day, I'm usually beat and good only for watching a show or reading a book after the kids go to bed. Baby Evelyn likes to kick at night most often, but Cora has been able to feel her move at least once. Cora loves to get a side view of my belly each day and tell me how much bigger it is getting. The kids are terribly excited about having her out and snugglable in April! And Kevin and I too of course!

You look adorable. I cannot believe you are having your 4th. I should be, too--Porter will be two in April, so I am off my schedule to not be pregnant yet. But I am scared!!! You are amazing,

It's fun to hear the things that other women crave when they're pregnant. You're looking great... hopefully you have many weeks before hip and backaches get too bad.
