Growing Ever Larger

I don't have much to say this time around. Lucky for you! I am 16 weeks now and finally starting to feel better. I still have my days but they are fewer and farther between which is nice. Unfortunately I still haven't regained my love for food but all in due time, right? We officially find out what we are having on March 9th so I will keep you posted. Preston thinks it's a boy and I think it's a girl so I guess we will see!

Anyways, everyone keeps bugging me for pregnancy pictures so they can see my "cute belly". Ha. Cute. Large. To each their own I guess. :) I feel like I'm really big for only 16 weeks but I admit it's fun to feel like I am starting to look more pregnant, rather than looking like I've totally let myself go. It's a good thing my butt is protruding at an equally fast rate so they can balance each other out. It would be a real shame if I was one of those people who only gained weight in the belly. Lucky me.

This may be wrong of me but I kind of enjoy watching people's discomfort when they look at my stomach and you know in their minds they are like, I think she might be pregnant but I don't want to risk saying anything because what if she's just gotten really fat. Haha. I usually don't say anything and just watch them squirm. It's great. And everyone keeps telling me I need to announce it at church but I refuse. Announcing your pregnancy in the Relief Society "good news minute" kind of loses it's magic when you live in the heart of Provo in a ward where there are like 5 babies born every month. I'm pretty sure everyone will figure it out eventually without me stooping to the cliche utah mormon cultureness. No offense to anyone who announced it at church! Okay, enough talking. Here are the "belly pictures".

I think you look pregnant for sure! I am glad you are feeling better. You look beautiful! I am feeling girl so far. I am psychic, so I am probably right.

Amy said...

I am no psychic...but I still think girl! which would be SO FUN!!! You look cute! I love it! and I love that you are almost 3 weeks ahead of me...but I am sure I will still be bigger than you!

Maggie said...

totally hope you have a girl! The girlie stuff is so cute. Although Travis is my sweetheart, I pretty much eat him up all day, so in the end...you are going to LOVE it either way! You look great.

I saw you Sunday and you didn't look pregnant OR like you had let yourself go! :) So good for you! :) I'm one of those people who, like the day after I get pregnant, I'm showing. :)

Congrats on the new little one - boy or girl, I'm sure he / she will be adorable. :)

I announced my pregnancy during good news minute. I'm totally offended by what you wrote.

Oh, wait. NO I DIDN'T AND NO I'M NOT. :)
