Nasc & Nat

1. There's a yellow cake baking in the oven. I'm using a bundt pan and once it cools, I'm going to drizzle it with chocolate glaze. And then I'm going to get a chunk of it accompanied with a cold, tall glass of milk.

2. I came home from work to find my husband assembling our baby's swing. So, once he was done, of course, I had to do this:




















3. I couldn't even get past the first half of Moana without having a meltdown. 

4. Zoning out more often than normal, I keep thinking about how weird it is that I married P, a guy I had barely spoken to before we had coffee that one time, and then we were engaged 8 months after that. It's weird that we've only been married for 2 years, and now I'm carrying his child. I'm not saying I feel like I don't know him or anything. I'm just saying, one day, he was this unknown guy in a hoodie, and the next, he's my baby daddy. It's weird how quickly things can change. Like, one day I was a student in Georgia worrying about comps, and the next I'm a professor in Kentucky with a soccer ball belly and a really Irish last name.

5. P and I read Baby J a story in Spanish. He can hear now and will be able to recognize our voices when he enters the world. We read him Huevos verdes con jamón, the Spanish version of Green Eggs and Ham, alternating pages. (Spoiler alert: Sam-I-Am's hispanophone alter ego is Juan Ramón. They had to make it rhyme with "jamón.") I really think little boy listened and liked it because after we finished, he started moving around like crazy. Like maybe he wanted to hear another. 

6. I'm going to get another piece of cake.
