So I've been cleaning out my inbox at work, and this is something that was emailed to me a few years ago. I've kept it all this time and watched it every few months just for kicks. I laugh out loud every time I see it... it never gets old. But before you clik on this link, please be warned... there is a bad word. (The three letter alternative for a donkey). : ) I do find it to be fairly innocent, and just had to share.
Out of the mouths of babes!

What a difference a few weeks make!
Holy Huge Belly Batman!!! : ) I just happened to be looking back over pictures that we've taken of my belly progression... and wow! If I ever thought I looked pregnant, or even bloated, 20 weeks ago, I was totally kidding myself!
Check out this comparison... me at 15 weeks and me today at 32 weeks:
I was svelte 17 weeks ago!!! And look how rested and energized I looked. What happened? ; ) Just kidding, I know what happened. And I am okay with it... really, I am. God has given me a peace about what is happening to my body. I am comfortable with the weight I've gained, and with the... well, let's just say "changes" that have occurred as I've gotten bigger. God made me just this way, and I will accept it gracefully. Or at least I'll try.
With that said... it's okay if you want to keep your comments about my size to yourself. I don't know what it is about pregnancy, but people seem to be very comfortable making comments that they wouldn't normally make. Like... "Yeah, you've really started to waddle". Or "I've noticed you've put on a lot of weight in the last week". You wouldn't say something like that to someone who wasn't pregnant. What makes it okay to say it to me now? I accept that I am heavier than I used to be, and that it is for a very good reason. But I don't need public commentary on it. Thank you very much.
I just needed to get that off my chest. : )

29 Weeks
This is as up to date as you can get. This shot was taken about 3 hours ago. I'm not technically 29 weeks for a couple more days... but you get the idea. I've definitely grown over the last few weeks! She seems to have really started to expand out front... It's fun to say that I have a 43" waist!!! Ha! I'm officially in my third trimester now, which I can hardly believe!
Pebbles is now approximately 16 inches long and approximately 3 lbs... Can I just say wow? Wow. She's getting so big! I know the next 11 weeks is going to really, really fast. I can't wait to meet our baby girl!
26 Weeks
This isn't a profile photo... but I don't think there's any doubt that there's a big bump out there in front!!! She's definitely been growing and growing and growing. Wonder if that has anything to do with all the ice cream I've been eating? ; )
This is 26 weeks... and our 2nd Anniversary!!!
23 Weeks (Easter)
This was Easter... and 23 weeks. I think it was also my first Easter dress in a really long time... probably like, 30 years! I have to do these things nowadays... I don't always feel so feminine in my larger state. : )
