It's a.....
big ol' belly, isn't it. No really, it's about the same size as last week I think. Although more strangers on the street are starting to notice that I'm pregnant. You know...staring at the belly...wondering uncomfortably...asking round about questions like "Where did you get that top?" I must admit that I have a friend I saw recently who appeared to be visibly pregnant, yet didn't say anything. I tried to sneak around the topic, with no success..."So, isn't your friend due to have her second soon? Two can be really overwhelming at first, but it's really worth it." But she didn't bite at my attempts to engage the conversation. But we did get confirmation recently in a note announcing she's due with a little boy in a few months. So I know how hard it is to be curious, but not quite willing to go out on the limb and say "You're sure looking fat around the middle. Is there a baby in there or what?" Because you never want to be dangling on that limb and fall off the tree.

2 things:
1. Amazing to me that you (apart from the belly, and it IS growing) look identical in all the pictures!! Your hair, your smile, everything. Except the belly, which I guess is the point.
2. With potential preggos, you could ask them how much a case of Bud is costing these days, because if they aren't pregnant, they'll most likely know to the penny due to the large amount of beer they have been imbibing to get that big gut.

OK, #2 had me laughing out loud at my cubicle. Which is a big no-no!
