First Craving!

I think I had my first official prego craving....last night, around 8:50 pm, I was watching the last few bits of American Idol (no, I'm not hooked; just intrigued) when at the commercial break, there was this yummy looking commercial advertising Simply Pure Orange Juice. Ohmygoodness, it looked so refreshing...so, not more than 5 seconds later, I was telling Tim that I needed something Orange...like Orange Julius or something of the like. He pulled out a coupon for a free Jamba Juice that just opened down the street from us. I deliberated for about 30 seconds before I zipped up my coat, and ran out the door in my pajamas, with a twinkle in my eye, before they closed at 9. Upon arrival, (I had like 3 minutes to spare...) I ordered an Orange Dream Machine with a multi vitamin boost. Yumo! It was excellent!

On another note....I have thoroughly enjoyed everyone's thoughts regarding whether or not to find out the sex of our baby. Honestly, I go back and forth on this everyday. I always come back to wanting to be surprised at the time of birth. I share so many "mom" concerns though; it's not like I am forgetting about the annoying factor of getting gender neutral clothing at baby showers, or not knowing what color curtains to hang in the babies room. I think about all of these big and small details all the time! Tim goes back and forth on this too; however, I don't think he cares about the color curtains nearly as much as I do! :) Though, he has offered to make them for me. :) :) I love surprises. Absolutely love them. I know there will be so many surprises after the baby is born, even if we find out the gender prior. However, the thrill for Tim and I to be one of the first to find out after 9 long months is almost enough to keep us guessing. So...for now, I rest with my decision. Baby Thomas will be unknown to us until this summer. And, about those curtains....I will have all the time in the world to decorate babies room after he/she's here, right? ;)

This is just a glimpse into what we've been up to lately....the past two weeks Tim and our good friend, McKenzie have been remodeling our bathroom. Basically, new toilet, new tile flooring, new surround around the tub, and new fixtures in the shower. It's been craziness, let me tell you! Dust, no running water, no shower....only baths for right now, until we finish the tiling in our surround...oh yeah, and a crazy neighbor yelling at us for making too much noise at 7:30 at night. Hmm.
