highly recycled

I swear, all of this rain in Chicago is starting to affect our brains around here! From tonight until Friday, we’re supposed to get almost five inches of rain. I do like rain in the spring time (everything is now GREEN!!!), but not to this extent. It can go away now.

All of these pictures today are recycled. Somehow my brain (affected by the rain) made me forget all about my pictures. However, seeing as though I eat the same things all the time, I’m lucky to have some pictures already.

Breakfast 6:00 AM

Okay, breakfast didn’t include banana bread, but now that I see this picture…. I totally need to make some more. I always forget how good it is! Breakfast was similar though – two eggs, two pieces of peanut butter toast, and an orange.

Snack 9:00 AM

Note to self: Yogurt is really hard to eat while you’re trying to write out a graphic organizer on the document projector for the kids. I should have eaten it before talking about the Southern Colonies!

:fun fact: I love teaching Social Studies – like LOVE it. Plus, fifth grade Social Studies is the best. It is American History, so I get to teach fun things like the 13 Colonies and the American Revolution. AWESOME. #dork

Lunch 11:30

We typically don’t go out to for lunch on Wednesdays, but it was a co-worker’s birthday. To celebrate, a group of us headed to Chipotle for some much needed talking. Okay, who am I kidding – all we ever do is gab!

I got a veggie salad with loads of guacamole. Can’t go wrong!

Afternoon Snack 3:30 PM

After an afternoon full of meetings (I hate being pulled out of the classroom for meetings!), I had to get to an appointment for my bi-weekly prenatal massage. I ate a granola bar on the way, but there was no way I was photographing it because it was monsooning outside.

You might think I’m crazy for going in for massages every two weeks at this point, but it really does keep me feeling loose and keeps my aches and pains away.

Dinner 6:30 PM

By the time I got home from my massage, it was already almost six, and my poor sick husband was hungry. I quickly threw together dinner for the two of us. He ate chicken sandwiches and roasted potatoes while I had a BLT and roasted potatoes.

The Husband is sure that I’ll still like some meat after my pregnancy is over, but I am just about certain that will NOT be the case. Before I was pregnant, I couldn’t even stand the smell of meat cooking! It’s so so weird.

Tonight I’m sure I’ll be eating a snack before bed – most likely cereal. For now, I’m going to go snuggle up in bed and read on this rainy night. I also want to give the Husband some peace and quiet out in the living room to rest. The poor man won’t come and sleep in our bed because he doesn’t want to get me sick and knows I wouldn’t sleep well on the couch all night. Talk about a keeper, right?
