Things I have craved this pregnancy:
1.) Salt and vinegar chips
2.) Frito's chips
3.) Swiss cheese, pepper jack cheese
4.) Popcorn
5.) Combos pretzels
6.) Chocolate, on occasion. I really haven't craved it all that much
7.) Hummus and pita bread
8.) raisins, nuts, and anything with whole wheat in it
It's so funny, I crave mostly salty stuff. Although, I don't really have a very big appetite. I did just have a snack of popcorn tonight, but that's not totally normal. I don't normally eat after dinner. I have been getting bad heart burn already.
One thing I love about being pregnant is how good food does taste when I am hungry. Maybe it's just me. I just think everything tastes so good. I really try to eat healthy. So, even though I do have cravings for salt, I try and not eat a lot of it. When I was pregnant with James all I wanted to eat was rice, zucchini, mushrooms and onions....I know, sounds funny. Right now, I'm thinking about pita bread and veggies and hummus. I had homemade pita bread for lunch....yummo! I think that's what I'll have tomorrow. :)
Ok, enough about food!

My hearts prayer
O Father,
Holiness seems so far from me, and yet it is truly the desire of my heart. I long for intimacy. I long to know you. I want my whole life to reflect Your Presence and Your power. I want to live astounded by your grace and Your glory.
And yet, God, it's just me. Fragile and sinful me. Come and make me yours. Heal my wounds. Forgive my old sins, again. Give new words to my prayers. Restore my yearning for truth. Feed me with your insight and wisdom. Cover me with Your lavish love.
I want these children to live in the blessing of a spiritually healthy woman. Let me be that woman. Remove the distractions that keep me from godliness. Step into the blur of my life rushing by and speak stillness into my days. Hold me close and care for my soul.
In these years of mothering, let me choose to surrender the place of my soul for your safekeeping. Whisper to my heart and give direction to my steps. Shout to me from Your vastness and add wisdom to my words. Let me love and celebrate life from the full cup of Your grace and peace.
Thank You, my Savior, my Keeper, my Friend, for the tender mercy that comes and fills my soul.
In the precious name of Jesus, amen.

:) I love this post. It's fun to hear about your list of cravings. I hate things during my pregnancy that I had either NEVER liked or hadn't wanted to eat in over ten years. I craved McDonalds cheeseburgers with extra pickles, peanut butter AND jelly (which I've never ever ever eaten), and I ate bowls upon bowls of Lucky Charms. :) We also kept bags - BAGS - of white chocolate M&M's in the freezer so I wouldn't run out. I mean... THE SUGAR I CONSUMED IN NINE MONTHS could have fed a small army! Hahahaha!
Now you have me craving these things, and I'm not even pregnant! :)
