Tater Tot

Well we are quickly, or as Thomas likes to say, fastly approaching the half way mark...in two more weeks I'll be 20 weeks with 20 more to go, and hopefully baby Parker won't be shy, and we'll know if it's a he or she....I hope you guys are guessing on my poll (located to the right o this post)....I see so far we are all hoping/ guessing for a girl :) I would love that, but I do admit that my vote was for a boy...just a feeling.
So this past week I had my first official reoccurring craving....ROAST BEEF POBOY, extra sloppy!
Saturday evening Derek and I tried Mr. Ed's...I ordered the roast beef poboy. It was pretty good, coulda been a lil more salty....well Monday morning I woke up with the intense desire to dig my teeth into a sloppy soggy RB Poboy, AGAIN! This time we went to Short Stop (since my loving father won't open Brother's on the eastbank!) Man was it the best thing ever! Later that day I wanted one for dinner, and on Tuesday morning I was sure to inform Derek that we would be making a stop at Short Stop again...this time he got one too :) I can honestly say that I've never EVER completely eaten an entire poboy..ever. Well Monday and Tuesday I scarfed those suckers down til there was nothing left! Proof, hehe!! Now you want one don't ya!!
They say when your pregnant you can have some crazy dreams...well NEWS FLASH...I've ALWAYS had crazy dreams, soooo now they r just crazier I guess?? So to make this post extra long...I thought you would enjoy this next story....this took place Wednesday night....Setting: my bed middle of the night.....I was knocked out, as usual, dreaming crazy, as usual. In my dream I was walking through a parking lot at night...trying to find my car, which happened to be a mini van in the dream (NEVER going to happen!), I noticed someone following me..so i walk faster...so does he..yikes! I get to my awesome mini van, swing open the side door and grab..........a STRAW! quickly i unwrap it and hold it up in this violators face and say, "If you don't leave me alone I'm going to SHOVE THIS STRAW UP YOUR NOSE!!!!!!". Suddenly the stalker turns into my husband!! He takes the straw from me and starts trying to shove it up my nose! I'm screaming and just imagining how painful this is going to be if he succeeds in getting this thing up my nose! Something is pulling me out of this deep sleep and crazy dream...I open my eyes, lying very still on my back and I hear this very loud and serious belly laugh. You know the kind where all of the air comes
out of your lungs cuz you're laughing so hard? Yes, that kind. So picture me waking up from this crazy dream, where I'm scared for my life, to hear this freaky laughing. Where is it coming from?? Again there it goes, a deep breath in, only to collapse the lungs while laughing....and again.. three times! It's my HUSBAND. lying next to me..yes the one who was just trying to kill me in my dream! I am freaked out, not moving a muscle...is he awake? what is he laughing at? it's the middle of the night!!! the I hear "WELL I BELIEVE THAT!!"..........The man is laughing hysterically and talking in his sleep!!!! who does that??!? Thursday morning while getting ready, I casually ask him..do you happen to remember if you dreamed last night? He says, "Yea, I was on the golf coarse and someone was telling a funny story." I say," CLEARLY it was funny! You were laughing as if a comedian was doing his show in our bedroom at 3am!"
Week 18: Baby is 5.6 inches approx the size of a Sweet Potato weighing 6.7 oz. Many of the
bones in your baby's body are starting to harden. Among these first bones to develop is the inner ear which is part of the reason why your baby may be able to hear sounds such as your heart beating or your tummy growling. Baby's become amazingly mobile, passing the hours yawning, hiccuping, rolling, twisting, kicking, punching, sucking, and swallowing. And baby is finally big enough that you'll soon be able to feel its movements.
Sweet Potato and Mash had a beautiful baby and named her Tater Tot. She grew up and wanted to marry Tom Brokaw. Mash and Sweet Potato were very upset!! Tater Tot said, "But why don't you want me to marry him?!?" Her father replied, "Tom Brokaw??! You can't marry him! He's just a common tater!!!" Get it?
