Belly Button Watch - 33 Weeks

Despite my best efforts to eat everything within sight - we still have an innie :(


And Nilla is just disgusted with me...

Belly Button Watch 2009 (and please god NOT 2010!!!!)

I have always found the pregnant belly fascinating....at least until I got one. One aspect that has particularly enthralled me is when a woman's belly button "pops." For those new to this whole baby belly thang - it is when the abdomen stretches so much, due to baby size, that the belly button goes from an "innie" to an "outie."

The websites say that this happens around the 20th week. This may be true - if you are size 2. For the rest of us it seems to happen later.

So now I begin Belly Button Watch 2009!!!! If we go into 2010 I may have to give myself a c-section, or recruit Rob.

So here we are - week 32 (eight months for the rest of ya) - belly button is still an innie...

Ode to my Pregnancy

Sing along now - using the tune "Friends in Low Places" by Garth Brooks.

'Cause I've got a baby in low places
Where the urine flows
And the womb chases, my period away.

Holy Cow Where Did My Waist Go??

I went to bed on Saturday. All was normal.

I woke up on Sunday and KAPLOW - there was a belly there! A significant sized belly! So we took photos (of course). Note my faithful, if gassy, side kick in the photo. SHE hasnt gained any weight. Sigh.

1 pregnant lady + boredom + cell phone = priceless

A new benefit to pregnancy....

I have discovered a new benefit to pregnancy. Aside from not holding my stomach in all the time, not lifting heavy objectives, napping, eating nummy food and generally being considered a vessel of god.

It is called - Expectant Mother Parking!!!

I finally got to take part in this wonderful thing. The advantage - shorter distance to run to the bathroom...again. We only parked there for two minutes, but it was still worth it.

The Belly and The Steak

That time again - belly photo time!

Here is me, shortly after waking up (shocking I know) at 17 weeks preggers. Or 4.5 months for the non-week people.



Now for the steak -doesnt it look gooooooooooooooooood? Ok, Ok, we ate it and forgot to take a pic of it. But it was good!!
