B is for blizzards. A butterfinger blizzard and a caramel brownie blizzard from DQ were fun treats tonight. Stephen had a buy one, get one free coupon which made them taste even better.

B is for baby registry. Tonight we ventured into a new wonderland of baby gear. I must say it was overwhelming for both of us! Thanks to suggestions from friends, checklists printed from online sites, and browsing through the store, we managed to register for some essentials that are gender neutral. Of course our list will need additions, deletions and tweaking, but it’s a start at least. I’ll post our registries once they’re in a more finalized state.

B is for baby bump. If you know I’m expecting, you can see the tiniest beginning of a baby bump. I can definitely feel Baby, but my friends are starting to notice him too!

B is for Bella Band. Because Baby is starting to make his presence known, I’m planning to invest in a Bella Band soon so I can still wear my clothes for a while without fastening the waistband. I’m excited about maternity clothes, but they can definitely wait a while longer.

B is for berries. It seems that my favorite treat these days are berries! They’re juicy and always appetizing to me, not to mention that they’re healthy. Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries–yum! Juicy fruits are great since I feel dehydrated a lot. Apples, kiwis and grapes are high on the list.

B is for books. Both of us grew up with an appreciation for books, but Stephen is the official book-lover of the family. His mom began reading to him at a very early age, and he has definitely carried that respect for and enjoyment of books with him for the rest of his life. We both feel the importance of teaching Baby to love books. Our baby wish list already includes lots of fun and beautifully illustrated books, baby physics and science books (what? how could we not?), and will soon have Bible and character books added. Can’t wait for a nursery library!
