Belly Explosion!

Somewhere between 20 and 21 weeks I had a belly explosion. I hope Pluty is growing like crazy, because I sure am! I'm fairly certain that these pictures are NOT flattering in the least, but since the sheer size of my belly (and some accompanying aches and tightness) has dominated this week's "pregnancy talk," I figured I had to post some snaps.

Profile - 21 weeks


And my fav, the "toe" view - except you can BARELY see a toe!


I've had some achy-ness up near my ribs (isn't it way to early for this?!) but feel great otherwise! The fall weather has brought about a burst of energy and we've been going on long walks and doing some classic nesting around the house. (I cleaned out my closet this past weekend and then tackled all the tubs of useless cloths that we store in the basement). My mom is coming into town in a few weeks to help us organize our basement (I have always wanted one of those "basement systems" and she is the master of organization)and get a crib (!!!). We are trying not to get too excited, but wow..this whole baby-thing is starting to feel really real!
