A Planetary Bump.
>> Wednesday, December 9, 2009
I made myself take some pictures tonight-- despite the fact that my stomach now feels so huge that I have to crawl up the stairs on all fours--because I doubt I'll want to again before D-day.
Jason and I got a little crazy on Saturday night. Jason came up with the idea that we should go to Hobby Lobby (mind you, it was already, like, 8 at night) to get supplies to make Adelyn's first scrapbook. So we wandered the aisles of craft central until the store announced it was time for the last call on super glue.
I started putting it together this week, filling each page with all of her ultrasound photos and a few shots of me pregnant and Jason and I before our world was overrun by all-things baby. And I left the last 10 pages blank, for one last look at my planetary mid-section and--hopefully--some shots of us at the hospital when Adelyn makes her grand entrance.
I feel impossibly bigger each day I wake up. We went to the doctor yesterday, where I found out that Adelyn is already 3 pounds, 11 ounces and has a head full of hair that can be clearly seen through a 2d ultrasound and that I'd managed to gain four pounds in a mere five days. Behold the power of Easy Mac for breakfast.



And here's a shot of my poor, tortured furbaby Louie. He got scalped at the groomer's this week thanks to a neglectful mother who hadn't brushed out his mattes in a month. He's embarrassed and ashamed of the new 'do.

You look so beautiful! Enjoy this last little time as a couple.
I can't believe we are both so close! Oh to brave Hobby Lobby is an accomplishment. I walked in and right back out of Michael's this week. The craziness was just too much! You are SO ahead of the game!
What a lovely pregnant lady!!! Thanks for posting it!
Dear Daughter, I love the photos especially the one of the planetary bump and fur baby who does look pitiful, poor dear. Louie needs some "grandma" time! What a lovely post - can't wait to see the album.
Mom
You look beautiful. Have fun finishing the scrapbook!
You look fantastic! Love the idea of a scrapbook that you can one day share with her too.
What a great last minute idea to keep you both occupied until the big day! Thanks for posting up those pictures, you look radiant!
