i'm down in LA today and got to spend the evening with cori and adam.i happened to come across this piece of masking tape in the restroom of the restaurant we were having dinner at. i thought it was an odd place to be reminded of such a nice compliment. i washed my hands, did a little primping, and walked out of the restroom feeling refreshed and confident, rocking my pregnancy glow.you are beautiful. ...makes you smile doesn't it.
week 22. spaghetti squash.hi little guy. my little squash. my little squirmer. you are the coolest science experiement to ever happen to my body. you are moving around SO much now and even daddy can feel you do your karate chops.they say if we could see inside my tummy that you'd look like a little human now. your eyes, nose, ears, etc are all in their right places and your tooth buds are even starting to form. you go little dude. we love you.
look at us... me and my godchild, in god's house. can't you tell what a spiritual and guiding light i will be in little lyla's life? it was quite an honor to be there as she was accepted into god's loving arms. there was no crying or fussing. she was calm, cool, collected and looked GREAT in her christening gown.godfather and i have big plans for this little one. xoxo weewa.
week 21. hello chiquita banana.little dude is starting to wiggle around quite a bit these days. keith still can't feel the kicks, but i think he should start to feel the thumps any day now.my tummy seems to be on an accelerated growth chart, but as of this moment (knock on wood) the cocoa butter seems to be doing its job and stretch marks have not yet made their debut.i have officially taken the plunge and made a few maternity purchases... and YES world, i like to wear the elastic waste band up and over the belly. it makes me laugh every time.
these little toes are broke. at first, SOMEONE didn't remember HOW they got broken, but a quick x-ray down at the local ER confirmed that when you start drinking at 10am and don't come home until 3:30am the next morning you can indeed end up with broken body parts.thankfully on monday, after the hangover subsided & with the help of some people who were with this person (who shall rename nameless) when the breaking of the toe occurred, the events of the evening were pieced back together again and will remain a vivid memory for the next four weeks while this person lives the life of elevating, icing, and wearing a hospital velcro bootie around town.poor little toe.
i took today's picture in honor of my mom.today was her last day of radiation. this in itself is huge because it consumed her every day for six weeks, but more than that it signifies the end of the horrible journey she went through in order to recover from breast cancer.momma, you did it!!! your strength, positivity, and sheer gut got you to this day. you are my hero.i got teary when i saw the sunset...it was almost like the heavens shined down and gave us a perfect sunset to mark how far you've come and to help you look forward to the beautiful days ahead.
week 20.we're at the HALF WAY point, folks!!! and we're dressing things up a little more from here on out. no more belly pictures of me in my p.j.'s... THAT is my promise to you.belly continues to get rounder, and it is hard to tell here, but my belly button now pokes out on an all-the-time basis. i am trying as best i know how to embrace it and treat it as the latest & greatest accessory to have on your tummy, replacing the belly button piercing.i also think my secret is out to the masses... i have moved beyond looking like i've sucked down a few too many slices of pizza and now officially look pregnant. the defining moment here was on a bus ride to work when two ladies both offered me their seat. it caught me off guard and i respectfully declined their sweet offer. i figure i should stand while i can because come a few months from now i'm going to be doing jedi-mind tricks on people to get them to give up their seats!
