For those of you wondering what I look like pregnant, here is your answer. I'M HUGE!! I'm 26 weeks pregnant and I already look and feel like I'm full-term. At this rate I probably won't even be able to walk in June. Even Dillon has noticed--tonight I sat down next to him and he patted my belly and said, "Oh your belly is growing so bigger!" I've noticed everything with this second pregnancy is a little worse. I have worse heartburn, cramps, contractions, I'm more tired and light-headed and I'm gaining weight a lot quicker. With Dillon, I was working 10-hour days and feeling like a super hero. This time...well let's just say I'd love to just sit in bed all day. I can only imagine what my next pregnancy will be like. They'll probably just have to hospitalize me from day 1! Oh the joys of being a woman!
Actually I'm really grateful for the blessing of being a mother (and not having really bad pregnancies...I know it could be a lot worse). The whole thing really is a miracle. Every time this baby moves I am amazed that I actually have a little human being growing inside of me. We're still trying to figure out what to name this little guy though, so keep the suggestions coming.

You look beautiful!!
Don't you just love the things kids say?!
Oh, Natalie I know just how you feel. I am huge and expecting to have the baby any second but then i realize I am only 26 weeks. What do you do. You look great though!! We are also having a hard time with the whole name game. I hope to get a name before we actually have him. I hope you get some rest and enjoy the last few months!!
You are so cute! I wish I looked that great when I am pregnant!
Natalie---Hooray for this post! A week behind you and I can totally relate to the way you feel. I keep thinking, "By the third child, I'll find out I pregnant by only fitting into maternity clothes!" Congrats on a boy and Happy Birthday!
