OK. A whole bunch of you have left comments here suggesting that I need to take a picture of my large self and put it on the blog. I suspect that you are doing this purely for your own amusement and to give you conversation topics, similar to the reason people watch really bizarre clips on You Tube and then immediately turn to whoever is closest to them and say "Dude, you have GOT to check this out." We all want to look at a train wreck. I'm totally on to you. But I'm going to give you what you want anyway.
So first, I want you to consider this photo, taken a few months ago. I show you this photo because I remember that I was taking it specifically for the purpose of demonstrating the visual concept of "Wow, look at my stomach!"

The previous photo makes me laugh now. Here's why:

There are more pictures that I'll post soon related to the super-fun weekend of nursery furniture assembly we just had. But for now I'll just leave you to ponder that photo and the fact that we are supposedly going to have a baby in something like 21 days. That should scare you, but I bet it doesn't, because you're thinking "Dude. I am going to cancel my cable subscription. This is going to be funnier than reality TV!" Yes, yes it is. And with more baby poop.

Whatever! You look wonderful. I am not just saying that. Keep the pics coming. Sam finally comes home next week and this blog will be the next exciting thing to keep track of! Our love and prayers are with you and Dant (I showed Annabelle the picture and she remembered ya'll and wanted to know if you could call her Anna instead! Cute huh?!).

Haley! That is so funny! I remember looking at my belly every day thinking, "Do I look pregnant yet?" Then I would ask Eric if I looked pregnant. "No, I mean, like if you saw me in the mall and didn't know me, you'd think I was pregnant?" "What about when I stand like this?"
Then I blew up. And started hitting things with my stomach.
Then (this is the happy part) I had a baby!
