busy busy busy

So many of you know we have been preparing to go to a huge art/music festival next week. It's called Burning Man and it's in the desert of Nevada. It seems like for the past week I have been eating, sleeping, and breathing Burning Man, lol. We are SO excited. I don't think I really had any idea about how much gear (pimitive conditions, the only service is porta potties, bring yr own water, haul out your own trash, 100 degrees durin the day, 40 at night). Weve had to get a lot of stuff and of course weve had so much fun decorating our bikes, making (sewing) costumes, etc. We leave Sunday and return 9 days later! Marcelo and I have not been on a trip that long ever before! Sooo cool! We've also done research and Lulu should be fine as long as I stay hydrated and cool.

I had a total moment of knowing I was pregnant today. I was going through some stuff in the bathroom today as I was packing and came across an old bag of honey lemon cough drops and they just sounded like the absolute best thing I could think of. I totally ate one and enjoyed that cough drop lile never before, lol. Seriously I was laughing at myself as the cravings I'm having are so atypical of me. I also bought a most delicious rainbow sprinkle donut today and some reeses pieces. I have been craving those too! However, I did do 90 min of yoga today, had a healthy lunch and only ate half of the donut. It's all about balance!

Speaking of yoga, I can definitely tell my body is changing and modified many of the poses to be less intense than usual. Tomorrow is my monthly prenatal check up! Excited!

Although I am excited with all my heart and soul for Burning Man, I am additionally excited to come back, pack up all the gear that has taken over our entire living/dining rooms, and really focus on applying for home loans and getting ready ready ready for baby! I feel so blessed that we are going on this trip though, it's the perfect window of opportunity that we may not have again for a while! These are special times!
