I should be journaling this, but I'm at the computer-- and typing is faster. I just wanted to record some random information about this little baby in my tummy. You see, at first we thought it was a Mexican. All I wanted for a while there was beans. Refried beans {think Taco Bell bean burritos}, chili con carne, you name it. Then Derek started calling it my little Italian. I wanted pasta. Mostly plain-ish pasta, since I was so DARNED queasy. Spaghetti noodles with zucchini cooked with a bit of olive oil, onion and some garlic-- topped with parmesano reggiano. Toss it all around- ahh, delish. And now... well, I think my baby is officially just plain ol' American White Trash! We went to the fair this last weekend {pictures and post to follow if I can ever get my pics uploaded}, and I had the best, hugest corn dog EVER! And it was divine. Then I bought frozen corn dogs today for dinner... James had one, and I ate one {ahem, three}. Perrrrfect. Mmm.
When I was pregnant with James, I wanted salad and fresh veggies in the beginning. The weirdest thing was probably the super-craving for pickled okra. I hated Indian food, but I think that's pretty universal for me {when pregnant; I love it otherwise}. I miss it, but it's too much kick for my traumatised stomach. This time I hate meat. Unless corn dogs count, which we all know they don't.
So there you have it. My multi-ethnic baby! What will it look like, I wonder? ...

Ohhh Bec you are hilarious! Love all your diversity! You will have a very diverse child! And Let me know if you ever get on a Chinese kick cause I will be more than glad to help that craving!
Well, if you stay on the corn dog pregnancy diet he (oops- OR SHE!) will definitely be born with a mullet. I seriously laughed out loud at your white trash diet. So funny! love you!
LOL!! Not to worry.... I ate Taco Bell non-stop with both my kids and they turned out just fine. :)
Oh silly Becca! Corn dogs are definitely not meat. They are processed and battered and dyed and fried and oh-so-yummy! But I am still convinced you are hiding the true reason why you crave them . . .
YEAH!! I am so excited for you all! Having two was so much fun, and your such a good mom, you will love it!! Can't wait to hear what you are having!!
Man. Reading about all the deliciousness almost makes me wish I could be pregnant. Almost.
Well, people went through my mind as I read your posting. Jose Morales, with whom I spent several years of my childhood, from Namiquipa, Chihuahua, Mexico. Frank Sinatra. Joe Dirt. But these were background only. I especially enjoyed thinking about how great Mr. and Mrs. Anderson will be with a boy and a girl! I love y'all. Dad
Congrats on being pregnant! It can be so hard to find anything that sounds good to eat. I used to go for pickles and froot loops. (eww, I know!) I think froot loops are fruit in about the same way that corn dogs are meat.
I had a major aversion to meat with both of my girls. (I didn't count corn dogs either) Maybe your little multi-ethnic baby is a SHE! All I wanted was carbs. Bagels, pasta, etc...
Congratulations! That is very exciting news. I am just finally catching up with blogs. Congrats. I love your french interp of announcing...very creative.
