Food for Thought

... or thoughts of food.

Seriously, this girl can't get enough these days! I'm not sure what my problem is.

This morning, it started with me stopping by Casey's for a refreshing diet A&W root beer, but my body took me straight to the bottles of water first. I grabbed two big bottles of water, but yes, I still got my pop.

Then, this afternoon, it was time for snack at school. I was super excited to see it was apples! I whipped out the ol' apple slicer (my poor kiddos can't eat an apple without them being sliced) and I ate a katrillion apple slices. Well, really, it was probably more like 8 to 12 of them, but it felt like a katrillion. They were soooo good! I couldn't get enough. In fact, I'm wishing I had some right now, but the apple slicer at school? Yeah... it's my one from home. Shoot. Mental note: get another apple slicer.

Do you think my body is trying to tell me that I should be eating healthier, similar to how I was eating last year at this time, due to that little bundle of joy that was housed in my belly?

Who knows! And in no, no, NO WAY am I even attempting to elude to the fact that that will be me again. No way. No how. Nada.

I'm just sayin'... this girl's body wants the healthy foods and water back.

Sooo... if that's what it wants, that's what I will attempt to give it. We'll see how that works out.

In other news, Keelyn spiked another fever again when she got up from her nap today. That's 3 days in a row where she's gotten a fever. Tuesday, if you recall, she was at 100.6 at the doctor's office around 2:30pm or so. Yesterday, while home with me, her temp got to 99.9 after her afternoon nap. Today's got to 101.1.

Back to Mercy Central Peds Clinic we go. She has an appointment at 7:15pm tonight. Boy do I LOVE that they have night appointments. But, this means no daycare tomorrow (will she ever get back on a schedule again?!?!), Sean is staying at school super late to get things ready (worst day EVER for him to be gone tomorrow... but is being wonderful by sticking to our every other day deal), and me? I'll be fighting a super sleepy baby at the doctor's office tonight.

I sure hope they can tell me something concrete, though I'm guessing they won't.

Oh. And back to food. Not me this time. Keelyn's. It seems that she is liking my homemade food (finally!) so tonight I whipped up some green beans for her, got the sweet potatoes from yesterday into baggies, and am contemplating my next step.

Apples? Pears?? More green beans??? I've never tried fruit yet, but could give it a shot. What do you think I should make next? Leave me a comment and I'll go with the majority!
