3a PB&J

So you've all been reading the past few posts about how RR has been feeling recently. I'm not doing any of the gestating nor is my body changing for reasons out of my control but in my perspective, I think RR is starting to feel better. If not actually feeling better, she is better able to cope with things. The first 14 weeks or so have been pretty miserable for her starting with nausea, not having her clothes fit, some nausea, fatigue and finally rounding it out with some more nausea. Most of all of those feelings still exist but I can see a change in her energy level and her ability to cope with the afore-mentioned symptoms.

A lot of folks have been asking about any cravings that RR might be having and I must say she has gone through a few but nothing at all out of the ordinary or outlandish. So far, RR has wanted pistachio ice cream from B&R, lots of fruit, sushi, and a few hamburgers. Not too bad.

One thing I have noticed is that she's starting to eat like a 14 yo. She eats several small meals a day now. She wakes up and needs to scarf down something before she can even brush her teeth. For instance superbowl sunday, we had some friends staying with us and she woke up and had two frozen waffles 2 hours before anyone else ate as we were all full from the night before. More telling, is that she woke up at 3a this morning for a PB&J - which i'm happy to say she made by herself! (Told you she must be feeling better).


This past Sunday, Roti 1 had another gymnastics meet in Arlington, Hts. Because we had some folks over and i had to get chili started i got to the meet towards the end. The last meet i went to went on for a long long time so i figured i'd be fine. Unfortunately, I was only able to take in one event - the high bar. Roti 1 did fabulously and ended up with 2d place over all standing contributing to his team's overall 1st place finish.

Another great part of the meet was that a lot of Didi's friends and their kids came out to support him. All-in-all, Roti 1 had 13 folks come out to cheer him on. It was really special.

To the right is Roti 1 chaulking up before the high bar.
