I AM TWENTY-SIX WEEKS PREGNANT TODAY AND FEELING GREAT.
BJ STEPPED IN FOR AN IMPROMPTU PHOTO SHOOT LAST NIGHT AFTER I GOT HOME FROM WORK- ABOUT 9:30 PM. I WAS DISCOURAGED AFTER I POSED FOR PHOTO AFTER PHOTO BECAUSE I DIDN'T LIKE WHAT I WAS SEEING ON THE DIGITAL CAMERA PLAY-BACK SCREEN.
A CLOSE FRIEND OF MY MOM'S FROM TAIWAN HAS CALLED HERSELF FAT BEFORE. TO US, SHE'S A TINY ASIAN WOMEN THAT IS NOT FAT IN THE LEAST BIT. HER REBUTTLE TO OUR DISAGREEANCE IS THAT HER "BELLY STICKS OUT FURTHER THAN HER BOOBS."
AFTER LOOKING AT THESE PICTURES, I WISHED MY BOOBS WEREN'T STICKING OUT QUITE SO FAR BECAUSE, RIGHT NOW, MY BELLY AND MY BOOBS ARE TIED.
AS I TOLD BJ LAST NIGHT, I FEEL LIKE MY TORSO LOOKS LIKE ONE GIANT BLOCK.
PREGNANCY HAS BEEN A STRANGE JUXTAPOSITION OF BATTLING FEELINGS OF DENIAL, ACCEPTANCE, EXCITEMENT, AND WORRY ABOUT THIS BODY METAMORPHOSIS.
AND PLEASE EXCUSE THE CHRISTMAS TREE IN THE BACKGROUND. IT IS FEBRUARY 4TH AND I HAVE NO PLANS IN THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE OF TAKING IT DOWN.
You are beautiful! I love your little belly. You will love being home with your sweet baby. I am definitely a home body too. I could stay home all day cleaning and playing with Gwen. Your pantry looks fabulous. You motivated me to organize mine. I can't wait for baby Ellie to arrive!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! And I LOVE the Christmas tree. If ours wasn't real and dead, it would still be up too. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks McKenze.
ReplyDeleteOh My Gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When did you get a belly... so so so cute :) I love your belly, I really need to see you in person. I love the new vase and flowers too, looks great. Miss you guys!
