Pregnancy Cravings

So really no pregnancy food cravings, well maybe the daily dose of oreos, but I am having activity cravings.  My current one is to make stockings for Edamame and 007, and if we can decide upon Adzuki's name soon enough, one for him too.  This past week I've had a craving to send letters in the mail, and building a kitchen for Edamame out of wood for Christmas(cardboard isn't cutting it).  The week before that was to make shopping bags.  I finished the bags this week, but now our missionaries each get an 'eco-bag', as they call it in Japan, to use for grocery shopping.  I got the pattern here





I've also had cravings to vacuum the house or clean the shower on certain days.  It is taking all my will power to not throw out half the house in an effort to de-clutter.  Oh and I had to get rid of all of Clark's melamine plates, and I'm working on getting rid of the big person melamine plates too.  I almost feel a desire to make a Halloween costume coming on too.  Hmm what should Edamame be this year?  He'll only wear it to the primary Halloween party, and if we are lucky someone will take us on base for Halloween too.
 
Of course I'm also craving a nice pair of calf length flat heeled boots, but hey that will need some shopping time.

The whole china/milk thing. The milk is tainted with melamine, and I was thinking, well if it is making babies this sick, do I really want to eat my food off of it?

Oh, and we'd totally love to play with you guys on base every day!

It really sounds like you're "nesting." I really got that bad with my second. I love reading your blog, thanks for the updates!

I thought I couldn't start nesting until I was third trimester, I started like half way through my second trimester.
