New weigh-in

Ever been weighed at the doctor's and felt guilty? Uh, guess I shouldn't have bought that box of Little Debbies last weekend and given them a nice home. It's a dangerous thing to send a pregnant woman to the grocery store at dinner time when she hasn't had dinner. You never know what she'll come home with!! It could be chicken nuggets and icecream.

Yes, yes, at the end of these 40 weeks I will come out over that "healthy weight gain" number that some unknown authority has declared. This holiday season, I must become a new person. I will change my entire "holiday personality." No longer will I say the following things in my head:

"Look at all those cookies. I need to try ALL of them."

"It's Christmas! Who cares what I eat!"

"I'll walk it off tomorrow."

"I'll work out especially hard in January."

"MMMMMMMMM. CHOOOOCOLATE." (Think of Chunk in the movie "Goonies.")

This will be very difficult, considering that for my entire life I have eaten whatever I want at Christmas time. Wish me luck, people.

Pop goes the belly

So I decided I needed to record the pregnant belly for posterity. You never feel cute. But I will post these anyway because let's face it guys, it's a sight to see. It's hard to imagine someone pregnant until you see it. (really not that exciting)

Pull out the ribbons and lace!

It's a girl! We got a 99% ultrasound today along with a cool 3-D pic of her face. I'm so excited.

On another note, anybody know where I can get some cheap support hose? I've got green veins like my mom and sister had. I'm borrowing my mom's right now. They're thigh-highs and today one slipped down and my students could see the top rubbery part. oooooooooo, so cute~! I'm making major fashion statements these days.
