Pregnancy

No I'm not pregnant. Haha! Wouldn't that be funny...

One of my closest friends is about 6 months pregnant and hearing her talk about her pregnancy makes me think about mine. It's amazing how the mind works. I almost feel like I have blocked out all of the pain and discomfort I felt. I can say that I almost ("almost" being the operative word) miss being pregnant. It was just such an exciting time. Sometimes I think back about how miserable I thought I was during the last trimester, but I can't really remember how the pain felt and I am still so excited for when I am pregnant again. I always wondered how some women could have 4, 5, or 6 children even when they were sick the whole pregnancy or had horrible deliveries. Now I know. I wasn't sick the whole time and I actually had a very pleasant delivery(if you can call delivering an almost 10 lb baby pleasant), but when I think about it, I only remember the good things.

Don't worry! We don't have any plans to get pregnant ANY time soon... I am most definitely enjoying my perfect little only child. :) It's still fun to day dream about it though.

I also forget how incredibly HUGE I was right before I delivered!! The last belly picture I took was at 38 weeks, exactly one week before Lily was born.




Look at that thing!! It looks like someone stuffed a watermelon up my shirt! I can barely fit my arms around it!! It's a good thing Lily came a week early. I don't think I could have handled delivering a baby any bigger than 9 lb 10 oz. Just think how big the next one will be...

So, here's to pregnancy! I'm so excited for you Alyssa!
