Don't come between a woman and her food

This weekend I had a newborn session to shoot and right when I got home, we were leaving to go to my friends birthday party so I didn't have time time eat. We stopped off at Trader Joe's to get something quick from the frozen aisle and headed on over. As we were driving to the party, my stomach was growling louder and louder. The car ahead of us was putting along at a snails pace so I suggested Dustin just quickly cut the car off and get ahead of it so we could get there faster (So I could begin eating....) Sadly, He declined my suggestion. We got lost finding the house once we were in the development, which was making me less and less nice as the seconds slowly ticked by as my "overly cautious" husband drove like he was driving through a school zone....Or so it felt. Finally! FINALLY, we find the correct street, AND STILL grandpa Dustin, is driving 11 miles an hour! My stomach is growling even louder now. I'm so hungry I'm shaking, my head is pounding

AND on top of it, I have to pee! Awesome.

At this point, he's taking a Tally of who has been to traffic school, who has had multiple car accidents, who totalled their car, who has had the most speeding tickets.....

You guessed it.

Me.

Me: I don't care that you've never had a ticket or had an accident! Can you PLEASE drive faster for the love of god Dustin!

Dustin: We're in a residential! How fast do you want me to go?

Me: I don't know, it's late, can we just get there before the sun comes up?!

Dustin: Chelsea, I'm NOT going to speed in a residential OK. I'm sorry you're hungry. Maybe think about packing a snack next time.....

Me: DO YOU SEE ANY KIDS AROUND? Just get us there! Ugh! Next time, I'M DRIVING!

Dustin: If you were driving, the kids would already be under the car.

Thank God for his humor, which made me laugh and stop thinking about how hungry I was.

By the time we FINALLY got there, I was so hungry, I barely said hello to anyone, I tore open my burrito as fast as I could and ate it without breathing. It was delicious.

Us at breakfast this weekend:

This was the first photo Dustin took. He wasn't pleased that I wasn't smiling, so he forced me to smile (pictured above.) All I wanted to do was eat my breakfast wrap. That's all I wanted.

I think Conrad was annoyed that I was more concerned with getting that food down into my belly than the fact that he'd successfully placed a milk in his hippos mouth and wanted to show me.

When you're hungry (pregnant or not) It's so hard to be nice. My tongue is so much sharper and snappier when I'm hormonal and hungry. Maybe this is the baby's way of making sure it gets fed-it turns me into a raging witch! (Dustin does drive like a grandpa though. He's never once had a parking ticket or speeding ticket, or gotten into an accident but he drives like he's eighty.....so there's that!)

The three of us playing in Conrad's room & me showing off my

16 week bump + my food baby from breakfast!
