Being Knocked Up Part Deux

When people ask me how this pregnancy is different from the first time all I can say is I’m God damn exhausted. I could end this blog post right here because that legit sums up everything that I am feeling.

This time around things are so much harder. Chasing a 2.5 year old and being pregnant is hard. Being sick every day is hard. Getting fat so much sooner is hard. The whole thing is HARD. 

Wait, I have to share my stuff?? 
Ha. You're joking right?

But contrary to my previous bitching, there are some funny/amazing parts. Aubin is obsessed with her baby. She wants to name “her” ROCK lol. Also, every night we have this elaborate goodnight kiss routine: 3 kisses, 1 nose kiss, kiss aubs forehead, she kissed mine, and then exchange butterfly kisses. Aggressive but it works. Anyway, now she doles out the smootches to levi, the dog, me and then lifts my shirt up and mashes her nose as far as she can into my belly button and has to “kiss the baby” <3
Another funny thing that recently happened was LJ and I went on a date to the new Ethiopian place downtown. Service sucked, food was whatever but we had fun. If you have ever eaten Ethiopian food you know the next morning you have the same smell aura as if you went on a drinking bender with the coolest Frat in college. You smell like food death. Sounds cool until your nostrils are burning and you are dying. Long story short, Levi farted in the kitchen while I was cooking breakfast and I immediately threw up. Not a joke. Fart = Vomit. That’s how badly we smelled. We both couldn’t stop laughing about that one. I’m laughing as I type it actually.
This man--smell like death?? no.way.
This time around I am much lax with everything. Food- I would like it all thank you. Nope I am not going to track that shit in My Fitness Pal, and Macros?? Get out of here with that crap. I am going to enjoy this amazing process with my buffet pants and be happy. Yes, I know I will gain weight...I am making a human.
Mama's over it. I'm over it. 
All in all we are very lucky to be on this baby journey again. We are all so happy to have another person to snuggle and love when the time comes. I hope all my craziness now makes sense---I’m really not a super asshole, I am just pregnant and crazy.  

Do great things
