I'm so sorry, little fetus

But I'm going downstairs to buy donut holes now. 

You guys, I feel so ashamed because my diet sucks.  Like seriously, my children eat 1,000 times healthier than I do.  Do you know the number of times I tell them "sorry, not tonight, dessert is a 'sometimes' food" and then proceed to stuff my face with oreos or rhubarb crisp or this week's latest, smores made in the microwave, after they've gone to bed?  I am the biggest hypocrite ever

To be fair, I actually have a healthy diet that includes plenty of fruits and vegetables, and not too many processed foods.  It's just that on top of that, I have been adding a truckload of SUGAR.  And then I see things that say the baby's palette is being affected in utero by what I'm ingesting and I feel enormous guilt over the fact that this unborn child will grow to only eat Thin Mints one day.  I tell myself I'll go nearly cold turkey on sweets once the baby is born, but realistically my current habits are going to make that very hard to do. 

But right now I must have donut holes, even though I will very shortly be getting repeatedly kicked in the ribs (from the inside) for it.
