Extra Extra!

WE HAVE PIPES! It's raining a lot today, so we know they won't do more today... but we drove by yesterday and they've placed all of the pipes for our sinks and pottys and such! We are so excited to see progress! We can't wait to be in our very own house!

You know you're a mommy when even the house being built has "potty" pipes instead of toilet pipes! Haha! Very cute.

Its kinda like your house being built is like watching your "baby" grow. (not nearly as sentimental though). But it will HOUSE your babies!

Oh & I like your RANT on the side of your blog there. I know I realized High Fructose was in the Tomato Soup when I was trying for that "healthy kick" before getting pregnant. It really is ridiculous! Unfortunately too much Whole Wheat is still making me sick so I DO have to opt for the enriched junk sometimes just to eat a sandwich.

Oh & I am taking the "one source" prenatal's from wal-mart now, so thank you for that suggestion! I haven't gotten sick over them so far. Oh & call me crazy, but I WONDER if the Omega 3 Fatty Acids in the expensive Prescription Prenatal's cause "colic" because the Mercury levels are too high in the fish protein. (Just a "far out" thought of mine recently.) What do you think about Mercury Levels in Prenatal's? ~sorry for the long comments!

Don't be sorry! I love it!

They are pretty careful about mercury for pregnant women, but it is a good thought. You can get Omega 3 fats from other sources then fish... flaxseed meal (throw in 2 tps into pancake mix, you can't tell its there, or into a fruit smoothie)... walnuts are great too for the omega 3's.

Eating a big mouthful of whole wheat stuff can be pretty hard when your sick/pregnant! Sometimes you don't have much choice!

I am already so attached to our house! It's not even built yet and the idea of moving someday makes me so sad!! I LOVE IT! It is perfect for us!

Raw nuts are really good in the fatty omega acids too...particularly walnuts and almonds.

There's this Utah Truffle company in Draper that makes really good truffle candy bars that have NO h.f.corn syrup or transfat. I love them!

I love truffles! Do they have a website where you can order some?
