Now before you comment letting me know the dangers of both of these carbonated soda beverages, realize that I know that a pregnant woman probably shouldn't give in to such indulgences. Also, rest assured that I only have either of these once or MAYBE twice a week. I get one or the other in me and it sustains my
Sometimes a girl just can't resist!
But sometimes the little things that make life a little sweeter don't come in the form of treats and beverages.
Sometimes they come via a simple download on the computer.
Another little thing adding to my giddiness this past week has been Homeschool Tracker. I went with the FREE basic edition since it suits my current needs and it's perfect. I almost have all the lesson plans finished up until February, which is as far out as I'm planning for now.

It's funny, this baby has completely broken my habit of Diet Coke!! Once in a while, if we go out to eat, I'll get a Diet Coke...but then regret it, as I can't finish it.

HOLY CRAP!! Where have I been? I just figured out you are pregnant!!!!!! I guess having a baby put me a little behind reading all the posts - and I completely missed it!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS! I am sooooooo happy for you and your family of soon-to-be-six! Wow, you go from infertile to fertile in a flash! God is good! I hope you're feeling ok :)
