Speaking of food babies... I feel a little like Phoebe from friends when she tells Joey "The Baby Wants Meat!" I made a pot roast for dinner a couple of days ago and it was slow cooking for a while (also because if I take it out and let it get cold I'll see the nasty fat congeal and most likely loose my protein shake)... but anyway, I made a roast thinking Danny would be so stoked red meat graced our house for the 1st time this year (I don't think that's an overstatement)... and last night I was totally craving -- not only the flavor -- but I actually had like 5 bites of the thing. Which may not sound like much, but for a gal that gave up hamburgers at 12 and spent part of her collegiate (and post collegiate) years as a vegan/vegetarian, it's a pretty significant step.
I want our baby to eat meat... I mean, hormone free and organic beef is obviously preferable, but I'd like him to "eat meat sparingly." I picky enough for this entire family. I hope he takes after his father on this one. I can deal with it if the kid's only real aversion is celery (yeah, Danny doesn't dig it. Who doesn't dig celery? It's practically a non-food, right?)
Anyway, as far as the food's concerned: whatever baby wants, baby gets. As long as it's not fried chicken.
Namaste. I think I'll head to the yoga studio and get in an hour of "observation" time. Just 6 hours to go and I'll be certified!
*Yep, it's a boy. Read the previous post for a few more details on the little guy.

Sweet. We have the go ahead to take Holden to McDonalds then? I'm pretty sure their beef is hormone-free/organic.
No answer? I'll take that as a yes.
way to go Suite! Way to listen to the baby! Congrats on having a boy by the way! Good news also that the due date got moved up - gotta love that!
Yay for you guys... a little "suite" boy running around. Can't wait to see that one- watch out everyone. I am so thrilled for you and glad you are feeling pretty good. Hang in there and keep the humorous posts coming. lOve reading them.
That is so awesome. Aren't ultrasounds the greatest thing ever? Can you imagine being our mom's and not having that? Wow... times are a changing! Beef is great, your little guy will let you know that more and more! I loved steak and A-1 when I was prego with Josh!
Congratulations!!! Yea another boy in the fam--I am biased but I really think boys are the best!!! I can't wait for Harper to enjoy the fourth of july parade with all his new cousins
love ya--m
You are such a riot, I had no idea you were such good veggie lady. I eat whatever I can get my hands on so that is not good. this baby wants and needs more protein so I am working on that. I actually feel so much better now so no more complaining from me! I just want to know what it is so I can start planning the rearrangement of my house. One kid down, one over and one new one in the nursery. When did life get so crazy?! I am really happy for you and Danny. Congrats!
