28 weeks/Day at the dog park

Please excuse the wind-blown ponytail.

I am officially (since Friday) in the third trimester.  Can you believe it?  Less than 12 weeks to go.  Up until now, I have selfishly had some issues with this growing belly of mine.  It was hard for me to watch my body grow out of my control.  BUT....on Thursday night, I looked in the mirror and fell in love with it.  What an amazing thing my body is able to do.  I am embracing this pregnancy thing, and every time I feel him moving or kicking, it makes me one happy girl.  I honestly think I am going to miss feeling that once he is here.  

Last night, however, I had a man make this comment to me: "Wow, you look like you're about to burst."  WHAT?  Hey, man that works in the baby section at Nordstrom, I am not about to burst.  I have two and a half months left.  AND don't you know (especially since you are working in the baby department) that you should never make a comment like that when you have no idea how far along I am???  Unless you want to tell me how cute my belly is or how great pregnancy looks on me, I don't think I want to hear about it.  :)

You look fabulous...as always!!! And yes, you will miss him being in your belly! I have, but I love him being here more than in my belly :)

As for that rude man at Nordstrom....people don't know what's socially correct sometimes...they're just idiots!!! I had people tell me I was huge and that I looked like I was having twins! I cried, but then thought to myself, I have a baby inside me....I'm gorgeous!!!! Don't pay them any mind....you are a beautiful Mama! Enjoy! :)

I was so excited to see your blog here on Amy's page. You are quite possibly the cutest pregnant person. I saw a few of the pics from your shower, whoever threw the shower did an amazing job! It was so cute. Sorry I couldn't make it to the shower, Lauren is only 3 months and it would have been hard to drive 6 1/2 hours. I missed my sisters wedding shower which was in Od on the same day. Hope you got a bunch of great things. Can't wait to see your little guy!

I found your blog! YAY! I'm so glad I was able to see you and the other girls. And your shower was most definitely, the best decorated and most beautiful. You look as great as I remember.
