Looking forward to a SUPER week

Well of course today is the SUPER BOWL, GO PACKERS!! However it is the last week of the 2nd trimester, and we will be looking for to the home stretch. All of Ruth's furniture has been put together and is in place. Now we are simply putting the final touches on the room, hopefully we will have that knocked out within a week or so, but probably not. She is starting to be more active and really is liking certain food items. This past week was the first time that Joanna actually had cravings. Now none of them were weird but if I don't watch out I am going to be putting on 10 pounds with her. For example yesterday afternoon she wanted some crack dip to eat as we watched the basketball game, then for dinner it was a salad followed up by cheese bread and pepperoni pizza, and then an ice cream cake from DQ for dessert. For lunch today it has been Zaxby's and for dinner it is going to be ranch dip, steak, hot dogs, black eye peas, and butter beans. (I did learn today it is dangerous to take a pregnant woman to the grocery store). Oh and if it is chocolate or cake, or chocolate cake, it does not stand a chance in this house.

All in all Joanna is doing much better and Ruth is quite active. She is sleeping in the morning, and not really getting active until around 10am ish (Dear Lord please let her follow this pattern once she is actually here!!) She stays pretty active until around 4-5pm and then she likes to nap. Usually around 9 or 9:30pm she is ready for another round, which this is not good since Joanna is trying to sleep. We also know that she is going to be a great tennis player or a soccer player with the amount of punches and kicks she has going on in there. She also as pretty good aim with those punches and kicks. Every time I put my face on Joanna's belly and talk to her or kiss on her, I'm usually in for a swift kick or punch. This is a good skill for her to learn later in life when some "boy" tries to give her some unwanted kisses!!

With all that is going on Blitz is starting to figure out someone or something is coming to stay a while and he is ready. As you can see below he is hoping it will be someone whom he can play with.
