Pregnancy is a magical time! There are many changes taking place physically, mentally, and emotionally. People often ask me how I'm feeling, but I've seldom been asked what I'm thinking. In case you were wondering, here are some of my most common pregnant thoughts!

1. There is an actual human growing inside of me!

2. What a miracle!

3. It’s also kind of weird.

4. Miraculous, but definitely weird.

5. I think I have to pee.

6. Hmm, what should I eat for breakfast?

7. Can’t eat that, I get heartburn.

8. Can’t eat that, it makes me nauseous.

9. Can’t drink that, no caffeine.

10. Ugh.

11. I just felt her kick!

12. Wow, she’s super strong.

13. Can she kick anything important in there?

14. How close is she to my vital organs?

15. Is she near my kidneys?

16. Where even are my kidneys?

17. Please let this child be smarter than me.

18. I wonder what she will look like…

19. I hope she isn’t ugly.

20. That’s awful, I shouldn’t think that.

21. All babies are beautiful!

22. Well, not ALL babies…

23. Continues to hope future baby is not ugly.

24. Do I actually have to pee or is it just the baby pushing on my bladder?

25. I’m going to pee just to be safe.

26. My stomach looks so funny.

27. My belly button is all distorted!

28. That goes back, right?

29. RIGHT?!

30. How much of this is the baby and how much is just me getting fat?

31. I should probably stop eating so much ice cream.

32. Oh my god, ice cream.

33. Ice cream sounds wonderful right now.

34. I’m going to eat some ice cream.

35. I have to pee again.

36. Time to get dressed!

37. Let’s see what still fits…

38. Ooh, this shirt really shows off my baby belly!

39. But then people will want to touch my stomach.

40. I’m going to wear my frumpy sweater instead.

41. I should pee before I leave.

42. Seat-belts and baby bellies do not mix well.

43. Why is getting out of a car so difficult now?

44. Sees child having tantrum.

45. My child is NEVER going to do that.

46. Oh god, my child is totally going to do that.

47. Panic.

48. Let’s go look at baby clothes!

49. After I pee again.

50. Awe, these are so tiny and precious!

51. I can’t believe I’m going to have a little person tiny enough to fit into these.

52. I can’t wait to meet her.

53. I love her so, so, so much.

54. I have next to no idea what I’m doing.

55. But I’m so excited to be her mommy.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
