For those who are interested, here are a few other updates about the pregnancy. I still feel really good. People are sweet to ask me all the time how I'm feeling, but they always ask in a tone that makes me think they expect to hear the worse. I mean, I really feel pretty normal. Obviously bigger, but not too bad. The only other major changes are swollen feet by 8pm every night (of course, it's 108 degrees outside), starting to lose sleep at night (I'm assuming that's one way the Lord is prepping me for lack of sleep for the first 2 months), and a belly button that sticks straight out. I HIGHLY considered photoshopping that out of the picture, but it wouldn't be true to what I really look like. I mean, the top of my belly button sticks out so far - at least in my eyes it does. Josh is sweet to tell me it's cute and expected, I just think it's a little gross. And definitely not cute in fitted shirts and dresses. Oh well, it will be worth it when I finally get to hold this little one. :)
Other than that, I am in the healthy range for weight gain, I'm still exercising, and I really don't have any cravings. Not saying I don't believe women have cravings when they're pregnant, I just haven't. Certain foods will sound good at certain times, but that's no different than when I wasn't pregnant. Stuff sounds good, but I don't CRAVE it. However, I do use my extra 200/300 calories per day that I'm supposed to have as a great excuse to have another bowl of cereal. Cereal continues to prove itself as my favorite food. I get almost as excited about picking out my cereal on grocery runs as I do about going to Hallmark. Just a couple random facts about me. :)
So there's the update. I'll do my best to post one more pic, closer to the end. (Depending on how big I am.) ;) Thanks for all the prayers for Baby Dough.
Oh and life update coming soon. Lots of changes since the last post. (GREAT ones, too!)
