20 Week Check-Up

Ok well Jeremy and I went for our 20 week check-up today.  The baby is right on track and weighs 11 oz.  All of his anatomy looks great.  He has all his bits and pieces!

Everything looked good with me as well.... until I stepped on the scale.  I've gained a lot of weight this month (which I'm blaming on my stupid orange juice addiction).  I could care less about ever eating a meal for the rest of my life if you'll just let me have my orange juice!  I seriously feel like a crack head when it comes to that juice.  I drink it in the morning, I drink it with dinner, I drink it at night, I drink it DURING the night.  I mean we're not talking about some little "craving" ladies and gentlemen... we're talking about a live, uncontrollable, wake me up in the middle of the night addiction!  I even tried to freeze some of it so that I could still enjoy the taste without chugging it, but all that did was frustrate me because I couldn't eat it fast enough!  And I just ate all of the cups I had frozen and before I knew it half the gallon was gone!  So tonight I will attempt another reduction method: Operation Water Down.  I am going to go get the frozen mix from the grocery store and make my own orange juice and water it down so I can, fingers crossed, satisfy my addiction but limit my calorie and sugar intake.  So... we'll see.  I'll let you know how it goes.
