Gear

How much bread does one family of 7 need to consume in a week? We learned our lesson two years ago when we brought about 5 loaves and ran out halfway through the week (a sandwich-for-lunch lovin’ group!). We had to go to Food Lion and pick up something from the shelves. It just didn’t cut it.

This time we are prepared.

IMG_1101

We have also progressed from a few cases of beer to two small kegs. Geez. Overkill?

I also have all of my blogging tech gear in tow.

I can’t even imagine when we also have baby gear to bring too…. we will need a mini van for sure.

IMG_1088 

I sipped on this pineapple + berry + milk + yogurt smoothie during a call this afternoon

IMG_1089

And in-between packing categories, Matt and I reheated last night’s pizza. Oven at 400* for 10 minutes and it tasted brand new!!

IMG_1097

There was not a hint of leftover about it. (Which is good because I dislike leftover pizza!) One of each flavor for me.

IMG_1094

Plus a pile of sauteed garden chard. I ate 75% – a good amount!

IMG_1096

IMG_1092

OH – and everything looked normal at my ultrasound today!!! SUCH a relief. I was a little worried that I was heading in the direction of pre-term labor due to some funny feelings down below (see this post for the why) but thankfully things not only looked normal but they were more normal than before. AND the baby was head down!!! I’m so glad to know he is capable of going that direction : )

Check out this photo of his nose and mouth we got when we had an unexpected belly ultrasound! I wasn’t expecting to get to see him OR get any photos! He’s cute!

Lips Nose

I have nearly all of my BERF posts written for the next 10 days (WOO!) and all my ducks in a row on my other projects for vacation. Of course I’ll be blogging all the food ‘n fun on KERF, but I decided I’m going to take a break from blog reading (which is sad because I hate to miss out on fun announcements or important posts) so I’m going to feel very lost when I return! Someone fill me in on anything big that happens!

Starting vacation off with some reading – and an early bedtime because we’re early to rise!

    Hi Kath! You have a new daily follower 🙂 Ahh I love your blog! I’m seventeen and I consider myself quite lucky to have found a place containing so many things I find interesting! Reading weekly BERF stuff is super cool – not sure if I’ll really want kids myself – but it sounds like you’re enjoying your pregnancy and all that comes with preparing for your baby’s homecoming! I too am an oatmeal lover (every single breakfast) – I think that’s how I found KERF!
    I liked reading your RD journey. I’m already passionate about healthy foods; my parents let me steal their cards weekly as I’m in charge for groceries :). Nursing makes the most sense for me though, but, it’s nice how you were able to channel your career though a blog – I like it!
    Where do you get your cute spoons?! Mine, and all the selection in the stores are all so boring! Your presentation, no less, is fabulous – I’m sure all your readers appreciate your detailing.

      The spoons are from all over – the silver ones are antiques that I inherited from my grandmother.

    I love getting ultrasound pics to take home … isn’t it so incredible to actually be able to see the baby still in utero?
    (I think I may have missed something; what kind of ultrasound were you expecting today?)

    You should take a break – good for you! We all need a break from any sort of media at times – blogs, TV, entertainment, etc. Good to get back into ‘reality’!

    Oh – the Foodbuzz ads WERE showing up when I asked last night! I didn’t realize the ad was a Foodbuzz one (on the left) because it doesn’t actually say Foodbuzz anywhere! (I always thought it did?)

    Lucky to have so many ultrasounds! I had lots but only because I was “high risk” i.e. advanced maternal age plus a few problems.

    Yes there will be more gear when that sweet boy arrives…pack ‘n pay, white noise maker, highchair, not to mention the clothes, cups, bottles etc. our beach trip with a baby this year (and 2 older children) went very well though, considering…

    All that bread looks heavenly!

    your bread packing pile is unreal! but lunch sandwiches… and the looks of that great harvest bread? not so bad. :p

    crispy reheated pizza is so good. and if it’s gonna be soggy, give me the cold pizza. i used to adore a slice of cold pizza for breakfast. hahaha. not since i discovered using the stove for it, though. quick + crunchy.
