4th Day Hair

So...I'm the first one up again. This is extremely unusual for my type (you know the go to bed too late and let your kids watch cartoons and eat cereal while you get an extra hour in the morning type). I'll blame both types on the pregnancy. Maybe I'm being prepared for early mornings with the little one. Anyway...I remembered I had taken some pictures in "photo booth" (mac book's built in camera's application) that I wanted to post. So I pulled up photo booth and cringed when this appeared.
Nothing like turning your computer screen into a giant mirror first thing in the morning. Ouch. However, I couldn't help noticing how nice my hair looked for having just rolled out of bed 5 minutes earlier. I counted the days and realized that today is 4th day hair. I think I'm going to keep it. Don't get me wrong, I will shower. I'm just not going to touch the hair. I've got to make the 45 minutes on Sunday it took me to do my hair go as far as possible for me =)

And this is the actual picture I was looking for. I made creamy spinach chicken pasta last night using some of my THRIVE food. I made a white sauce with powdered butter, powdered milk and cornstarch. I added some freeze dried spinach and parmesan and voila. I'll post the whole recipe on my other blog, eatingoutofcans.com. Now, this wasn't as good as real Alfredo with real butter and cream, but it's a lot healthier and my kids gobbled it up =) Which bring me to a mommy confession. I totally lied to Duncan. The only green vegetables he eats are broccoli and asparagus so when he asked me what the green things were I just told him that it was broccoli. I knew it was the only way he would eat it and it worked so...no regrets.
And lastly, the prego pick we've all been waiting for. I'm 34 1/2 weeks and actually feeling better than I was a few weeks ago. Yahooo! 6 weeks still seems way too far away but at least when people say, "You're getting close!" I can now nod my head and smile in agreement.
My first bit of company this morning =)
