Parker's current favorite: Cornelius P. Mud, Are You Ready For Bed?

Parker is in love with books.  He show little interest in other toys at the moment and instead prefers to carry around a book – mostly any book will do.  If he happens to see you wander by while he’s carrying a book, he beelines to you and holds up the book with this pleading look in his eye and only someone with superhuman strength can say “no, I can’t ready you that book right now” which means that we have been reading lots and lots of board books in our house lately.  It’s adorably cute.  We were thrilled when Xander reached this phase – for a long time the only “toys” we had in our living room was just a bookcase overflowing with all of his favorites.  It’s great to get back here and have lots of cuddling and reading time with the little guy :-)

My morning sickness is pretty much gone, except sometimes when I brush my teeth (I know, it’s kind of weird – sensitive gag reflex…). My stomach continues to grow, which I’m still not ready for. Many of my clothes are too tight for me now. I’m going shopping for maternity clothes this weekend. I’ve picked up a few things here and there, but this is my first shopping excursion. It should be fun (I hope). I’ve been using two pregnancy websites, BabyCenter and PregnancyWeekly. I actually did quite a bit of surfing before I settled on these two. I like PregnancyWeekly because they have an online calendar where I can add journal entry type things to keep track milestones during the pregnancy (which my blog is also doing…). BabyCenter has a good weekly newsletter that I’ve been enjoying. Zach has been entirely patient with me, which has been great. At night when I’m settled in with Oscar (the cat) on my lap, he patiently gets me whatever food I happen to desire (as long as it’s in the house and not entirely complicated). It’s nice having people bring you things – I’m definitely enjoying that part of pregnancy! I’ve also been reading two books, What to Expect When You’re Expecting (of course), which my sister Cait bought for me and The New Pregnancy week-by-week, which my friend Jenny bought for me. The books and websites tell me that the baby is approximately 4-4 1/2 inches long now. He/she has translusent skin and we’re working on growing bone marrow this week. So things seem to be moving along well, and so far the books/websites are right – the second trimester has been much better than the first!
