Don't worry. As you can tell, that thought BLOWS MY MIND!!!!! Now I'm already feeling as big as the house that killed Dorothy, so I can only imagine how much larger I'm going to get. Word on the street is that the size of my belly is not very large in comparison to others who are at the same junction as I. Whatever. My stomach is bigger than it has ever been in my life. And I look like an upside down turtle when I do certain poses in flow. Mainly camel. In fact I actually look like a camel. It's ridiculous.
Thankfully the nursery is mostly completed and only has some finishing touches to be done. We've had such an outpouring of generosity already from friends and family so that we don't need any "major" items. Car seat and stroller were the only "big" things on our registry because we were given everything else. I am so incredibly thankful and humbled by those in our life who said "what do you need, we've got tons to give you!" Who does that? And we're not fancy folks by any means so hand-me-downs are totally cool in our book! But the amount of stuff we've accumulated already is crazy! Why do babies need so much stuff?????
As Critter gets larger, the space in which they have to occupy is getting smaller. This means that I'm feeling a heck of a lot more than I was a few weeks ago. Apparently this is a good thing. And not only can I feel a lot more, other people can see it more easily, if they're looking that is. I've got some friends in Bible study who have been watching the belly for a few weeks to see any movement-no dice so far. I'm sure as we get closer to DDay they'll be able to see all the kicks and rollbacks that I'm feeling. I just keep joking to pass the chocolate.......
