T minus two mos........

OK, sorry for the delay, folks, I've been meaning to post for a while---I have been waiting on photos of my unwieldy belly that have not arrived.

We took a trip to New York recently, and some belly photos were acquired. However, Stan has not sent them to me, and now they're probably not an accurate depiction of the BEACH BALL I'm walking around with, anyway, so I need to get new ones. Except that anytime Stan is home to take them, I am not photo-ready. It's a vicious cycle!

Let's just say that being 7 1/2 months pregnant in August is a "new" experience. I don't want to say bad, because it really hasn't been. But the heat, my God, the heat! Last night was yet another ice-pack-clutching adventure in trying to go to sleep without the air conditioning on, because our window unit is typically more trouble than it's worth. And trying to eat anything is becoming increasingly undo-able, as baby has decided that the new place to "hang out" is right on top of my stomach, with all his spare parts WEDGED up underneath my ribcage.

So yeah, I'm basically living on Tums these days, and trying to find a comfortable position to be in. The end.

I've gotta say, though, it's been kinda fun lately, because he is getting so big that I can feel exactly where he is at all times. He definitely has his favorite spots to be in, so I suppose there's not a lot of guesswork involved....but all the same, it's fun to be able to feel a little shoulder poking out, or a leg or whatever. He's almost cooked to perfection! And man oh man am I ready to be out of the kitchen!!!!

And that....is that. Hopefully I will be able to fanagle some photos soon! Even if I have to attempt to take them myself.....
