{the first 15 weeks of pregnancy}

If all else fails, I always have an appetite to eat one of these:
-lifesaver spearmint mints {always been a staple even before pregnancy and always will be; I swear they take care of feeling nauseas}
-cinnamon & sugar toast
-pretzels
-string cheese
-mac & cheese {hated this before being pregnant}
-pizza
-costa vida salads
-bran flakes
-golden grahams
-cranberry juice: lots and lots of cranberry juice {i've already at one urinary tract infection this pregnancy and had a pretty bad one a couple months before getting pregnant, so now my daily goal is just preventing this expensive, inconvenient problem not to happen again}

So grateful right now for:
-crockpots
-cranberry juice
-more cranberry juice
-peppermint essential oil
-not having a cold
-the rubberband trick to keep my pants fitting {my goal is to prolong wearing "maternity" clothes as   long as possible, and just wear what I have that will work and buy things that are just normal, cute clothes from the store that will fit the bump as it grows}
-our water pipe fixed
-raises at our jobs
-the youth in our ward; we love each one of them and learning from them!
-stake conference
-temple dedications {we got to see the Brigham City temple dedication}
-date nights
-our car
-our baby is growing well and we get to hear his or her strong heart beat every month!
