Dairy, where have you been...

Yes, that is what I have been thinking to myself since I've gained the hunger bug about 9 weeks ago. That was when the "I-feel-like-I'm-going-to-throw-up-every-second-of-the-day" feeling left me and I am now hungry. I've had my share of dairy, about the normal person's dairy intake, and I haven't had any problems. Apparently this baby doesn't think I have a lactose problem. Cheese and ice cream here we come! Not together though, now that is gross!

Other than that, that is about the biggest "weird" thing so far in this pregnancy. I've been super hungry but my portions are getting smaller, as I eat many, MANY times throughout the day so I don't eat much at one sitting. Not to worry, I'm hungry about 2 hours later.

Here's a weekly update for you all...seeing as how I missed last week due to some visitors:

{I need to start wearing a cute outfit when I take pictures instead of just a tank top, and clean that mirror!}
