31 weeks!

We have a new baby-ready camera (more on that later), so Daniel acted like a true professional photographer tonight and I thought I'd show you the succession of images (and they're dark because I don't let us turn on the flash :) ever. natural light!) ...

Also, I feel like I look huge. I don't realize I'm that big at all....I think for some reason my stomach looks unusually enormous here. Or what if not...

And! We've never shown you what's going on inside, so here's what Baby Center says our baby looks like inside my belly at 31 weeks!



If you'll notice in that drawing, the legs are to one side of the mother—that's definitely what he's doing inside of me. Most of the time, his legs are kind of angled at my left shoulder, while his little bottom is on the right side of my belly...There's always this hard mass (his tush) to one side or the other of my belly button, and a lot of times he stretches out his legs or something and there's this lump that rises there.

Also, at night, depending on what side of my stomach I'm laying on, I'll wake up and feel my stomach or something, and his bottom will have shifted to the side that I'm laying on (so that if I'm on my left side, his back and such is down toward the bed)

Hopefully this all makes sense...anyway, it's what I end up wondering a lot—where exactly a baby is inside that basketball-sized stomach.

So nine weeks to go!!!
