Week 20 update

It's officially week 20! I am halfway through this pregnancy. It seems completely crazy that we're halfway through. I have a feeling this was the "good" half. Nagging back pain has started at night, thanks to the now necessary side-sleeping. Brian was a complete dear at some point in the middle of the night, rubbing my back- probably to help me get back to sleep so that he could get some sleep! 

Other than that we had a wonderful weekend with my family- my little sister was in town from LA so we made the most of the weekend with a concert, trip to the Zoo and dinner out to belatedly celebrate my Dad's birthday. 

Concert in Cedarburg. Low-rent version of Ravinia, totally perfect.

Sunday Breakfast: Peach & Sour Cream Pancakes

In an effort to cook through the Smitten Kitchen cookbook (every.single.recipe is a winner, I promise you) I made the Peach & Sour Cream pancakes on Sunday morning. They were perfect- light but filling, full of flavor and I managed not burn the peaches. Deb Perelman, the author, took a long time to write this cookbook and I trust her instructions implicitly. She mentions in the recipe notes that you can switch out some of the AP Flour for Whole Wheat, which I did. It went a long way in filling us up for a morning at church. 

The bump that's keeping me up...

The garden at 20 weeks.

The globe eggplants are starting to come in.
