Good news this afternoon!!
He’s healthy from head to toe. And he’s still a boy 
!!
Little leg, little fist
The sardine shot! Nice [non-edible] spine : )
More details about the big U/S on BERF on Friday!
I got home just in time for a snack before I jetted off to prenatal yoga. Apple + string cheese! Yoga was awesome, per usual!
I nearly talked Matt into going out to dinner after I arrived home from my post-yoga walk home down the Downtown Mall. But magically we pulled this delicious pasta dish off in just 20 minutes.
Whole Wheat Linguini with Shrimp + Bacon in a Kale-Tomato Sauce
We cooked up some chopped local bacon and removed it from the pan before adding about 15 frozen/thawed-in-the-sink shrimp. Once they shrimp were brown, we poured over about 1.5 cups of tomato sauce (Whole Foods Red Pepper) and stirred in 2 cups of raw kale to simma down. Dumped over the cooked pasta!
Deliciousness!
I now have two bumps: one is full of baby and the other, linguini : )
I am in a TANK TOP on the porch after 8pm. Matt is digging in the garden. Totally lovin’ this warm weather!

Congrats – healthy is good! My brother just found out his wife is having a boy tonight
Ultrasound photos are so amazing! Glad everyone is healthy!
Why go out to a restaurant when you can pull off such a delish dinner at home! Very restaurant worthy! I am snuggled up in sweatshirt and wool socks…so jealous!
can’t wait for warm spring/summer nights on the patio! send your warm weather to chicago, please
wow that pasta looks and sounds incredible! i always say bacon makes everything better!
I usually lurk but I wanted to say congrats! Also your food pictures every day are always amazing and make me so hungry!
Glad to hear everything is going well! Food looks so yummy especially the pasta.
Glad to hear that you and baby are healthy!
I love that your quick 20 minute dinner looks like gourmet to me! Hope you have a good evening!
It’s way nicer there than it is in San Diego…I’m jealous!
Hooray!
A million times hooray!
Our little one was NOT into the sono appointment- it hid the entire time and it made the appointment last almost 2.5 hours. WOWZA! And we still didn’t get a good picture! What a cutie you’ve got there!
2.5 hours!!! Ours was about 30 mins!
Glad all is well with Baby Kerf and Baby Mama Kerf! Looking forward to your Friday post.
So happy to hear everything went well today! Baby KERF is growing up so fast!
He’s already cute.
I’m so glad that all is well. Now all you can do is countdown the days until you meet him. 
Kath, congrats on your healthy growing baby boy!!! I am so excited to see this pictures!!! By the way your pasta looks delicious, your posts always make me hungry and inspire me at the same time!! Have a nice evening!
That dinner looks amazing. Shrimp and pasta was on our plates tonight too
Such a great combo!
So relieved that everything went well at your appointment! And that dinner looks amazing! (much better than the tuna salad we had tonight).
How precious! Enjoy every amazing moment.
Glad everything is looking good with the baby! And I must say that I am on a plane right now and your dinner looks SO SO yummy!
Adorable Kath!! How special!
Dinner looks awesome.
Happy for you that the baby is doing so well! I have a healthy eating question for you. Do you ever think about what you would do if you or Matt wasn’t so into all the tastes of healthy food? I think everything you guys cook and eat looks yummy but my husband only likes a very limited amount of things. It makes staying heathy with him around hard. I just wonder since you and Matt seem pretty synched up on the food front.
I love the blog BTW. I just started reading.

I really have no idea! I would probably do a lot more small portions with big side salads (which is what he did when I didn’t cook veggies in the first trimester!)
the humidity has turned my curls into a complete afro! totally worth it though. jealous of your deck. i need to move out of the city and into the south!
That pastsa looks delicious! Thanks for the recipe. I always forget how simple shrimp is to prepare.
My oh my he’s cute already!!!!!!!!!
Congrats love your boys pictures!!
dinner look amazing!!
Glad all is well thus far! Did you add cheese to the meal? Looks like some melted mozza…mmmm
Glad to hear the little sardine is doing well!!
That pasta dish looks WAY better than what a restaurant can serve. That’s a great flavor and texture combo!
Awww. Little sweet pea!
love seeing your sweet baby bump! I need to backtrack a few months and figure out how far along you are, this is so exciting! I love reading up on other gals going through pregnancy, it’s like we’re part of an awesome club or something
and the linguine looks incredible! So jealous of your warm weather post 8pm, we got a few sunny days here in Seattle a weekend or two ago and now it’s back to feeling like November. ’tis life, I s’pose. I guess I can still break out a few of the Fall sweaters while it’s here!
Have an awesome week, and congrats again on expecting your little boy
Almost 23 weeks!
Oh I love a good pasta dinner. I don’t eat it too often but every time I do I’m reminded of how much I love it. It’s all about a good sauce like this one.
Looks delicious, and your little one looks perfect! Isn’t it mind-blowing that a year from you’ll have an active, giggling, crazy new family member?! I still can’t believe Lucy used to be a tiny thing we saw on an ultra-sound. Life is amazing.
Congrats! And boy that pasta dish looks/sounds yummy…will try this week
Good to read everything is going well!
And that pasta dish looks great, will try it soon!
Pasta is so great for a quick meal. Love it!
So glad to hear that your ultrasound went well!
This dinner looks amazing! Sometimes the best dinners are the most simple.
Ha — I joked about being pregnant with twins — the actual baby and an “Italian food baby” — after our trip to Italy during my second tri
Love it! Looks delish as always
That pasta looks healthy and delish! Mama and baby are happy and full
