Today we are 25 weeks and 4 days pregnant! Baby Sophie is moving all over my tummy all of the time. It's truly a special and reassuring feeling. People I don't know are starting to ask when I'm due and what I'm having. It's nice to have finally gotten out of that awkward "Did she gain some weight or is she pregnant?" phase. It's special to share that with the patients I work with, now we have something in common. One lady asked me if it was my first, and when I replied yes she said she knew it because I was "glowing". Thanks baby!
This week my friends and I got together for a cookie exchange. I made two new treats that I found on the internet. Both went over very well. I made extra for Dan and I to take in to work and people raved. Therefore, it's necessary to share the recipes with friends and family.
These are
Oreo truffles, so yummy, so easy! I used more white chocolate chips than the recipe called for because it went on fairly thick. So, towards the end of the batch, there was not enough melted chocolate to fully submerge the truffles in. I used a bag and a half.
This is called
Reindeer Food. It's a delicious and simple chex mix covered in white chocolate and crushed peppermint. Can't mess this one up!
Enjoy the recipes. I'll end this post with a picture of me at 25 weeks in front of our Christmas tree.
With Love
Jess, Dan, Lucy, Baby Sophie
