the last miles are the hardest...

Pregnancy is like running a marathon. Except the farther you run the fatter you get, so by the final stretch you can barely move. And you get something way better than a t-shirt at the end, I'm hoping.
29 weeks now- I think I'm past the "fun" part of pregnancy. My belly is no longer a cute little ball. People don't tell me I'm tiny anymore- instead they look at my stomach and say "whoa." And when I tell them I'm due end of February they say "oh my gosh, wow."  They don't ask to touch my belly much anymore either (which is fine), it probably reminds them of Santa. I'm afraid of getting bigger, which is silly since it's the only direction to go. Sleeping is a nightmare. Sitting after a couple minutes is no good either, standing is worse. There is no hope of comfy anymore, I wish I could fast forward two months, past this final stretch... but I'm trying to enjoy being pregnant during Christmas, who knows if that will happen again. I eat all the goodies I want and don't even think twice.

  2. Katie, you are so cute! Pregnancy is a weird thing huH? You go from being skinny your whole life to having a big tummy! Luckily it's only for a few months and for a very good reason. Plus you have 2!

    just remember, it's SO SO SO worth it!!! Just try to keep your feet up for the next couple months and relax! you're almost done!

  5. Look at the bright side, every pregnancy after this should be a piece of cake. You'll probably even feel skinny cause you'll only have one bun in the oven.

    By the way, you still look tiny! Your belly is big OF COURSE, but I still bet from the back you don't even look pregnant!

    H: "LOOK AT HER BELLY!"

    K: "SHE'S PREGNANT!"

    H: "Not her BELLY...HER BELLY BUTTON!"

    Does your belly button stick out like that woman's?! Mine never did--but that was probably because I was already fat to begin with...

    THE BACHELOR STARTS ON THE 3RD! WE'RE HAVING PARTIES ON TUESDAYS AGAIN! No dinner, just treats yummy things! I hope you'll join in on the fun again!
